Are used to throw a baby sunfish made by castiac. Most of the ones I seen our 5 inches and they’re really big I don’t want something that big.

Are you looking for hard or soft? Heck for the money the Storm Sunfish are hard to beat.

I like Reaction Innovations Little Dippers in the 3.5 for smaller presentations, chatterbait trailers, A-rigs, etc.

Those work

4” Savage Gear Pulse tail—very similar to the Castaic bluegill you mentioned, but shorter and more slender.

Smash Tech was the first company that came to mind when I read the title. I don’t know if they have a 3” but I know they have a soft body sunfish.
