Quick take
Soft plastic jigs designed specifically for crappie, with a solid body and thin wagging tail that glides and darts with minimal motion.
This 2-inch spear-tail grub in Electric Chicken comes as a pack of 12 and is aimed at crappie. The solid body stays put on a jighead, while the thin tail wavers on the fall and darts when twitched. It suits anglers who want a small, easy-to-rig panfish bait in a bright color.
