I might be jumping in a week late, but I do have some viable opinions concerning Matt's bluegill baits. I'm going to open by saying that I have not caught a double digit bass with one yet, but I'm confident I will. I have caught literally hundreds of bass with Matt's bluegill bait...last July alone, I caught more than forty, 4+ lb. fish on them. I'm to the point where I don't go on the water without one tied on. Although I hear guys refering to them as a "bed bait", I haven't spent much time using them that way even though that is why I initially bought them. I do intend to use them more in that fashion this spawn, but I have found several other presentations that they can be used for very effectively. As far as losing fish, yes, I have dumped some good fish...but not anymore than with other swim baits..or spinnerbaits for that matter. When I fish them in open water presentations I use a Gami EWG #2 treble on the belly and I believe it increases my chances significantly of landing fish. Subjective opinion...you bet. Proven production...no question. I should have posted a response to Rob's review a long time ago. Awesome baits.
