Panfish creature bait

Crappie Bug

The Crappie Bug is a tiny creature bait with wiggling legs and a soft, buoyant body that hovers naturally on a light jig. Crappie, bluegill, and perch all fall for its subtle, buggy action under docks and around brush piles. It's a go-to ice fishing bait too — jig it through the ice around brush and cribs for slab panfish all winter.

Urchin-style tentacled threat

Cave Prickly Star

The Cave Prickly Star is an urchin-style creature bait with a buoyant center ball and dozens of thin, whipping tentacles that quiver on the slightest movement. It stands up off the bottom, taunts pressured bass into striking, and keeps working long after other baits die. Flip it, drag it, pin it to a jig, or throw it on a Ned rig and watch it come alive.
