Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

First off, I am new to the board so THANKS for having me. I am in search of 3/4-1" grub body. It is a plain looking thing that has no tail section. It is a little wider at the top and tapers to a point at the bottom. Alot of time you see them on a jig head with rubber or some sort of other legs attached. I want to make my own version of this jig but need the bodies to start with. ANY HELP would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!

There are almost 2000 member here, a lot of whom make their own jigs. Maybe some of them will read this, and help.
Thanks Sharon....since I made that post I had a custom mold made because I got tired of looking..lol. Here are the fruits of my labor....They have been a HOT BAIT all year for us for everything from Big Gills to Giant Shell Crackers and even stocked trout below the lake dam here by the house. They seem to be a hot ticket for about anything that swims..lol.

Nice. They resemble those bugs that skitter on the water. Do the fish eat those bugs? The don't seem to eat the little shiny seed like bugs.
Thanks...Yea, they do resemble those. I would say that fish would eat them if they can catch them since they are so fast...lol..These bugs were made popular on Ky Lake for Big Crackers but they will work anywhere they are good Gills.
Looks like the tapered end of a Senko or Yum Dinger with legs...cool!
