"Bluegill live in warm shallow water with large amounts of decaying plant material.  these waters tend to transmit a larger amount of red light.  bluegills do not travel a long distance to strike a lure since the are small and territorial.  They tend to hold in areas with a lot of brush and cover, so they will not become aware of a lure until it is close.  These factors make it an advantage to add non-fluorescent red thread to jigs used for fishing bluegills."
