    You don't have the best bait listed. A beetle spin with a black/yellow body. I don't mean that greenish looking yellow either. A bright school bus yellow. If they are being picky that day you can add just a dab of shrimp.

    I've been raising redworms for years in my vermicompost bins. I have caught far more bluegills with them, and a small float, than any other bait.

    Red wigglers or crickets depending on the day. Crickets are my favorite for specifically targeting bluegill, red wigglers if there are shellcrackers mixed in with the bg.
