Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

I stopped at the big blue god of cheap shtuff to pick up a few acks of spinner arms/blades & they were a dollar for 2, is there a better place to find pan fishing supplies, besides I'd rather see my money go somewhere other than TBBGOCS.

jann's netcraft is a good place to start.

Thanks for the tip, I just hate to end up give'n 1 dollar for 2 of the small arms with blades on them the size of a kernel of corn, figured there had to be a better place for tackle, been on a jig & spinner kick for a while now also try'n to find some tiny crank baits that might work, how cool would it be to find a place that catered to pan fishermen.  

I've been buying small crankbaits off of eBay. You can get some really great deals.

Another ebay'er here.
I got fifty of the jig spin forms a few years ago for under ten bucks. Silver and gold. lifetime supply.
I only buy tackle at retail outlets if I'm feeling impetuous or magnanimous.

Ya know I never even thought about flea bay, will have me a look.

About what size crank baits are ya'll use'n for gills ??  I found many thats small enuff & there far & few between.

I have real good luck with strike king bitsy minnows, there around 2 inches or so.

I started wire forming back High School and I just make them myself using an old Worth hand former

Looks like some clean work, was actually searching for wire benders last night just to see whats out there & to learn how its works, several cool videos & models to choose from.
