I believe as of now he only sales them on the Gram and FB. Clayton sly lures or Sly guy lures. He makes small custom ordered batches. Has shad style as well. Customer service is excellent as well. 

I sent him a message.  Thank you.

swim jig, chatterbait, and a jackal gantarel jr. are my go-to bluegill "imitators"

Z man makes some of their chatterbaits in a bluegill color.  Stick a dark colored rage tail menace on the back and it closely resembles a sunfish.

 

Sunfish are a primary forage in many of the smaller lakes here.

I can guarantee this Matt Lures Bluegill works. I don't catch many on it but the ones that I do are better than average size.

For a less photorealisitc soft plastic option...

I usually find the above a better option, I like a swim jig, spinnerbait and square bill. Of course catching one of the little boogers and dangling them out there can't be beat.

For a much less expensive option, t rig a 4" plastic worm. Purple, Blue and black can work well. Almost any t rig grub can work too, and these give the option of a weedless bait. In the lakes I fish I could never use these swimbaits. They'll hang up on every cast
