Quick take
Tiny ribbed minnow-shaped baits with all-tail movement designed specifically for finicky crappie.
The Blood Minnow Itty Bit Slab Huntr is a 1.25-inch minnow-shaped bait for crappie, trout and panfish, with a ribbed body that adds vibration and helps hold scent. Its vertical two-bladed tail keeps the swimming action tight and minnow-like, and anglers rig it for finesse methods such as split shotting, dock shooting and trailing behind a trolled crankbait.

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.
