Do you love big bluegill?

Jig

A 1/80 #10 hook jig I tied up just fooling around. After I tied it, I wondered if it might not have been better to have left the rubber legs off. What do you guys think?

I'll take a dozen!

Comment by Leo Nguyen on November 10, 2014 at 4:29pm: Great looking jig. A mixture of everything that will entice the fishes. Looks a lot like the squirters that trout chase after in my areas. The legs cause more ripples in the water. So, like everyone else said, leave them on. Cause more chaos in the water, you'll get more bites.

Comment by Allen Morgan on November 10, 2014 at 12:07pm: I'd say leave the legs in, and let the fish give it their stamp (bite?) or approval!

In fact, I think you've given me an idea!

Comment by David, aka, "McScruff" on November 10, 2014 at 11:35am: I like the legs, and I'm well convinced the bluegill do, too.
Have you tried them up around the head?

Comment by DAVID L EITUTIS on November 10, 2014 at 11:02am: NICE LOOKING BUG AND I WOULDN'T LEAVE THE LEGS OFF FOR ANY REASON !!!!!! I basically cut my teeth on this pattern bout 30+ years ago and never changed it , cept for some tail tweaking over all that time. It's a proven pattern concept buddy .......
