Bandit Crappie Lure 8-12' 2" 3/8oz Orange Crush CR

The Bandit Crappie Lure in Orange Crush is a 2-inch, 3/8-ounce crankbait engineered for crappie fishing in freshwater lakes and ponds. This lure reaches depths of 8 to 12 feet when cast on standard 10-pound line, making it versatile enough for suspended crappie at various water columns. The Orange Crush color pattern delivers high visibility in murky water and low-light conditions—ideal for dawn, dusk, and stained-water fishing when crappie feed most aggressively.

Bandit Baits built the Crappie Lure with a tight, searching swimming action designed to trigger reaction strikes from curious and feeding crappie. The compact 2-inch profile and modest 3/8-ounce weight make it easy to cast on light spinning tackle, keeping presentations accurate and natural-looking. Whether you're working deep structure, ledges, or open water, this crankbait's consistent action and proven color work hard to put crappie in the boat.

Use the Bandit Crappie Lure for cast-and-retrieve fishing or trolling at slow to moderate speeds. Orange Crush stands out in dingy water and around stained cover, making it a reliable choice for spring and fall crappie runs when fish congregate in predictable zones.
