Overview
Based on the scan of a real bluegill, the Savage Gear Pulsetail Bluegill Line Through Swimbait looks and moves like the real thing. Ideal for chasing trophies in clear and heavily pressured waters, the Pulsetail Bluegill Line Through Swimbait delivers next-level realism with its photo print finish and precisely accurate anatomical design. In addition to the incredibly realistic exterior, it also integrates an internal rattle to augment its fish-attracting abilities.
Once in the water, the Savage Gear Pulsetail Bluegill Line Through Swimbait utilizes key attributes to maximize the angler’s success. Starting with Savage Gear’s patent-pending pulsetail design, the Bluegill Swimbait provides a generous amount of thump and action, even with slow retrieves that are deadly in the winter. A second advantage is its line through design that allows the body of the bait to travel away from the hooked fish to maximize hookup to landing ratio by preventing the fish from using the weight of the lure to dislodge the hook. Completed with an included heavy-duty treble hook for tangling with giants, the Savage Gear Pulsetail Bluegill Line Through Swimbait is a smart addition to swimbait lineups everywhere.

Comments: Very nice and realistic looking bait.

Comments: Used it for the first time fishing at night this past week. Got blasted by a 7.5 pound pig in the first 20 minutes before losing it with an errant cast into the cattails in the dark (never fails right?). I'm back to buy more! Yes it is heavy so use a full-on swimbait rig for this. You can get away with a lighter set-up on the RTF and 4 inch pulsetail models but this is a big bait for truly big fish!

Comments: This thing catches!! I threw it in the river one day and caught a 6 pounder and a couple of 4s. The next day I hung about a 8 pounder and she got me caught up on a log and she broke off!

Comments: First, I have not caught any fish on it yet (working tons of ot) , but if your looking for a bluegill that you want to reel so slow, this is the best one for that, low and slow

Comments: Alright, I've been using this bait quite a bit this year, and now after putting in some hours, I feel like I can give it a review now. They are affordable, reliable, and durable. I rig these up on 65 pound straight braid, shimano tranx 300, and a Leviathan Alpha soft-swim remix Extra heavy rod. The slow sink version sinks super super slow. Since it sinks so incredibly slow, I crawl these baits a few inches to about 2 feet below the surface, with the treble hook rigged on the bottom. This is my go to method when the water is cold in early spring and late fall. In the summer, I like to reel the slow sink version fairly fast and use it like a wake bait. Again with the treble hook rigged on the bottom. I flipped the slow sink version like a jig around stumps, trees, and laydowns. It just hangs and almost suspends. You can keep this bait in the strike zone incredibly long fishing it this way. If you are looking to crawl this on the bottom like a hudd, or not have to wait a long time to get this bait down more than 2 feet, definitely get the moderate sink version. Overall, I have really liked using this bait. It's affordable, fun to fish, and most importantly, it gets bit by bass of all sizes. Definitely recommend.

Comments: A lot bigger than I anticipated, where I'm from a 5 pound largie is a trophy, which would be the only thing with a mouth big enough to get this sucker in its mouth, the pulse tail RTF is smaller and lighter and I'd recommend that for places where your common largie is 2+ pounds.

Comments: It's a great bait but it gets a little tiring having to fix the hook after every cast.
From: Charles: Loz, MO 4/30/21
Comments: Very good quality and price my only critique is maybe it's a bit too heavy. I use it with 8ft XH rod and it's still kinda a pain casting this thing around.
From: Unknown: 4/17/21
Comments: Amazing quality, realistic look and swim. I felt the 4" was too small, but this is just right matches all ponds,lakes, and river size sunfish. Comes with a rattle and treble hook. Will need to add a nail weight to tail for more action.

Comments: Action on this bait is great. It is a little bit of a pain to get the line through the right hole that you want. Having never fished something this big it definitely could use some more content to help first-time users. Great bait though still haven't had that big bite i am looking for.
