JR Prop bait — Compact — Bluegill

Propellers spin and splash — noise and surface disturbance that calling fish can home in on. This one is finished in Bluegill on a Prop bait — Compact body. How to fish it Steady retrieve to keep the props working, or stop-and-go if they short-strike. Target banks, docks, and open pockets where bait is near the surface. When it shines Warm water and active surface periods. Match color to water: clear leans light, muddy leans dark. Tackle notes Direct tie — no snap swivel (kills action). Fluorocarbon is a solid default; braid in heavy cover. Each one starts as a blank and is hand-painted by Jeff & Ray — finished to fish, not just to sit in a box.
