I think the Powerbait Honey worms and nibblers work better.

They work very well for ice fishing or drifting in a boat.

I’ve used them and they work well,but I agree with slabmaster,honey worms are hard to beat,and stand up well to multiple strikes.

I like the maggots to tip plastic bugs or Popeyes, but have not tried the honey worms others have mentioned. The maggots are only good for one, maybe 2 fish tops for me

Everything, I've read or seen on youtube says that for some reason the gulp minnow works a lot better than the gulp maggot, maybe it's the wiggle tail.

Fishermen "sweeten up" a small 1/64 -1/32 oz jig with a piece of Nightcrawler ,Mealworm or Waxworm or artificial powerbait.

That’s how we used the gulp minnows before, like a tube jig.
For what little bluegill fishing I do I use trout magnets & Charlie brewer 1” slider jigs under a slip float, I’ll tip with nibbles unless I’m just catching small ones
Then it’s just the jig
