    I am from Texas and yes the bluegill have chartreuse tails….I have seen maybe a handful with full chartreuse tails but for the most part it is a transition to chartreuse that starts about halfway back on the tail and gets brightest at the tip of the tail. A lot of the other species of sunfish down here also have a lot of chartreuse. I would also say to Jacob’s point I have seen blue tails as well and there are times when a watermelon fluke with a blue tail outshines watermelon with chartreuse

    @hunterbigwood4556 Před 2 měsíci

    The fact the wheeler of all people deny that bluegills have chartreuse tails blows my mind. I target gills all summer and they 100% have chartreuse tails as juveniles . A senko style bait around a bluegill bed is deadly, either way you fish it. As far as the creature bait goes, flipping a creature bait is so deadly. I should have won a tournament on Logan Martin last weekend flippin a strike king rodent. I lost 3 fish over 5lbs a piece flippin because I was using straight flouro in stead of braid. Also, it’s a shame that the bandito bug wasn’t mentioned in this video. That bait is legit. Just because they don’t sponsor y’all anymore shouldn’t take him out of the running. Missle baits d bomb is also legit. Glad y’all gave him some love!

    Younger blue gills have chartreuse tails. Around gill spawn to post gill spawn I’ve seen gills with orange, bluish purple iridescent, and chartreuse tails. The ones with bluish iridescent tails tend to be like aarons magic skirt (deep colors), chartreuse tails tend to have that bright orange belly with lighter colored sides. …. Reaction innovations sweet beaver, spicey beaver, kinky beaver are my main three. After that I like z-man palmetto and hella crawz for my second choice.
