Bandit Lure 2-5' 2" 1/4oz Pearl Chartreuse Back

The Bandit Lure 2-5' 2" 1/4oz in Pearl Chartreuse Back is a shallow-running crankbait built for bass and panfish anglers who need a reliable, natural-looking lure that deflects cover without hanging up. At just a quarter-ounce and 2 inches long, this crankbait dives to nearly 5 feet, making it ideal for targeting fish in moderate depth transitions, weed edges, and around shallow structure where bigger baits would spook feeding fish. The pearl chartreuse back mimics the flash and profile of natural baitfish in clear to moderately stained water, giving you versatility across a range of conditions.

What sets Bandit Lures apart is their tight, efficient action—no wild flailing that wastes energy or looks unnatural. That controlled wiggle triggers strikes from cautious fish and lets you work the bait for longer stretches without burning through energy on the cast. Just as important, the body design sheds weeds and deflects off rocks and wood with minimal snagging, so you can fish aggressive cover without losing your lure or losing confidence in the structure itself.

The Bandit 100 series applies precision molding and premium plastic compounds to achieve consistent buoyancy, weight distribution, and durability across every cast and every trip. If you're throwing shallow cranks for bass, pike, or walleye, or you simply want a go-to crankbait that performs across seasons and water types, the Pearl Chartreuse Back deserves a spot in your box.
