Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Chenille worm with marabou #12 hooks and silicon skirts and hourglass eye.
Idea came to my attention when I seen Bruce who likes to fish with whole crawlers. To remedy short strikes it's embedded with 4 number 12 Mustad 3366 hooks and an hourglass eye for a slow fall.

That is just one great approach. I know I saw a few mocked up designs like this, but this hits it home. Gilliworm, Tabbert's Dragon, whatever it calls, I got to try in making this. Got steps in making this Dick?

I did something similar using a 4" Airetail worm. I ran a stinger line to the rear and tied in a small hook. I then rigged out like a Texas worm, so it could bounce its head on the bottom while that stinger tail waggled around above.
But to tie this as a fly? Genius.
I've seen similar, but nothing quite the same. This one may go down in the Hall of Fame, Lucky.

Wow! THAT is a winner!

We can thank Mr. Condello for that. It don't look like a crawler and he likes to use them whole but the thought behind it was make it large like a crawler and put enough hooks in it to help eliminate the short strikes. The rest is just fish attractors.
