Dry flies for bluegill?

[Lotech Joe]

I've had good luck catching bluegills on the surface with what's called a "Hank 'O' Hair." I tied mine on a size 10-12 dry fly hook. First I bend the shank down at about a 30° angle midway between the hook eye and the point. There is no dubbing or tail on the fly. Just an Elk Hair Caddis type wing on a bare hook. Here's the caveat. They were the smallest bluegills I've ever seen. BUT, there has to be bigger ones in the water, or there wouldn't be little ones. Here is a link to the pattern. However, I bend my hooks right behind where the wing is tied in.
