Bandit Lure 4-8' 2" 1/4oz Splatter Back

The Bandit Lure 4-8' 2" 1/4oz Splatter Back is a diving crankbait built to reach depths that put you in front of fish other anglers miss. At 2 inches and a quarter ounce, this hard bait cuts through the water column efficiently and dives to nearly 8 feet—deep enough to hunt suspended bass, walleye, pike, and panfish without the bulk of larger lures. The Splatter Back finish delivers a natural, reactive pattern that triggers strikes in a range of water conditions.

What makes the Bandit 200 line a staple in working anglers' boxes is the balance of durability and dependability. The snag-resistant design lets you fish shallow structure and cover without constantly losing lures to hang-ups. Top-tier construction means these crankbaits hold up to repeated casting and aggressive fish, season after season. Whether you're fishing clear lakes, stained rivers, or transition zones between deep and shallow water, a lure that reaches 8 feet and performs reliably becomes an go-to tool.

The Splatter Back color sits in that sweet spot between natural baitfish patterns and the visibility needed to draw fish from distance. It's the kind of finish that works whether you're fishing bright midday sun or low-light early morning and late evening sessions. Keep a couple in your tackle box for multi-species opportunities—creeks, reservoirs, ponds, and lakes all have fish willing to eat this bait when it's worked at the right depth.
