Few fish are more fun to catch than bluegill — and DeLong Lures has perfected soft plastics that make it easy for anglers of all ages to catch them consistently. Every bait is hand-poured, scented, and designed to move like real prey, giving you an edge no matter the season.

Bluegill are visual feeders that key in on insects, small worms, and minnows. DeLong’s insect baits and mini soft plastics produce a natural wiggle that attracts strikes from even the most cautious fish. The durability of our American-made soft plastic means each bait lasts multiple catches, making them perfect for both kids and serious anglers.

Best DeLong lures for bluegill include:

• Ants and Dragonflies – Perfect topwater and subsurface baits that mimic fallen insects.

• Mini Worms – Ideal for small hooks or under a bobber setup in ponds and creeks.

• Tadpoles – Versatile bait that performs in warm water and clear conditions.

From family outings to finesse panfishing, DeLong Lures offer unmatched quality, durability, and realism for catching bluegill anywhere in America.
