Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I am new to this forum, looking forward to getting involved in the future.  My wife and I are both retired and our favorite hobby is probably fishing.  We like to fish for many different species, but probably our favorite fish is bluegill.  We own a recreational farm in SE Nebraska that also includes a small fishing pond.  Every summer our oldest grandson, who is now 8, spends a week with us at the farm.  If we let him, he would probably spend every waking hour fishing for bluegills in our farm pond.  Nothing real big, but good eating size. 

I do have a question that I am hoping somebody might be able to assist me with.  I have attached a picture of a panfish Jig that we purchased sometime ago.  This jig has become my wife's favorite jig to use.  Unfortunately, we only have a couple of the jigs left, and I have been unable to find a source to purchase additional jigs like this.  If anybody knows what this jig is called or where we might be able to purchase more, we would very much appreciate the information. 

Thanks.

looks like a gulp jig head or a north land but hand tied for sure

Duane...it's a minnow head jig of some sort but likely smaller than 1/16 oz. Judging by the average size of the bluegills in your pond a 1/16 may be a tad large. Looks like rubber legs as a trimming as well.

Friend me, then send me a PM on this site and I'll send you several of what I have in stock. Can't completely duplicate it but I have something similar and others that may do you guys well.

Thanks Jim, will do.
