Quick take
Jointed baby shad with a tight-action swim tail and scent channel for crappie and small panfish.
This 2.25-inch soft-plastic swimbait is built for crappie, with a segmented body and a paddle tail that wiggles on a slow retrieve. A channel along the belly holds scent if you want to add it. Rig it on a small jig head for vertical jigging, a steady slow swim, or twitch it under a float. The pack holds 15 baits in Monkey Milk Glow.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
