Member Posts: 78 | I just got a bettencourt reel gill today and I was wondering if anyone had used them and could say if they were any good or not? | |

Yes They are. This lure catches fish, and what surprised us most was how many small fish actually tried to engulf the entire lure. We had previously thought that only bass in the 3lb+ class would be interested in a bluegill of this size, but time after time diminutive 1lb bass would charge right out of structure and hammer the lure, many of which were just too small to get their mouths around the bait. It just goes to show how aggressive juvenile bass can be. Interestingly bass in lakes with almost no bluegill would strike the RFB almost as much as those residing in lakes loaded with the species. As expected, it was times when we saw a lot of bluegill in the surrounding area the RFB really drew the most strikes. | |
