Quick take
A tiny hard lure that replicates larval insects and fry, ideal for vertical presentations under a float.
This Leland Lures Crappie Magnet is a tiny jig body in a blue finish, shaped to resemble the larval insects, small crustaceans and fish fry that panfish feed on. It suits vertical presentations, fished under a small float or just off the bottom with little rod movement. Crappie, bluegill, perch and small bass are the fish it is aimed at, which makes it a simple add-on for anglers building a panfish box.
Best for
- Crappie and bluegill in ponds and small lakes
- Vertical jigging presentations just above the bottom
- Spring and early summer when insects hatch
Skip if
- You fish large open water; too small for casting distance
- Your target fish prefer larger profiles
Strengths
- Small body and minimal weight suit ultralight presentations
- Larval insect profile matches natural forage for crappie
- Effective in tight spaces between cover and vegetation
Trade-offs
- Tiny size demands light line and small reel; difficult to cast far
- Small profile means fewer large fish will strike
- Hard body lures hang on weeds and wood more than soft plastics

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.
