Betts Spin 1/16 Black Chartreuse 12/cd
The Betts Spin 1/16 Black Chartreuse is a hand-poured split-tail jig built to tempt bass, crappie, and bluegill in shallow to moderate depths. This is a proven panfish and bass lure that combines a compact profile with a slow-rotating blade designed to trigger strikes without spooking cautious fish. At 1/16 ounce, it's light enough for finesse presentations in weeds, timber, and around structure where bigger lures would be overkill—yet it casts far enough to cover water efficiently from a boat or bank.
What makes the Spin stand out is the balance between its jig head and blade. The blade rotates on a controlled frequency that mimics natural forage movement without creating unnecessary commotion. Hand-painted details and custom color application mean each lure gets attention to finish that mass-produced alternatives often skip. The Black Chartreuse colorway is a time-tested pattern that delivers in both clear and slightly stained water, especially during low-light periods and early season when fish are aggressive.
You're getting 12 lures per box, so you have backups for snags, lost lures, and experimenting with different retrieves and depths. This is the kind of lure to have tied on when you're targeting smaller bass, crappie, or bluegill and want something that moves with finesse rather than flash.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size water and conditions is the 1/16 ounce Spin best for?
At 1/16 ounce, this lure excels in shallow water, around weeds, timber, and structure where a lighter touch is needed. It works well in ponds, small lakes, and creek channels. The slow blade makes it effective in both clear water and slightly stained conditions, particularly early or late in the day.
Will this work for bass, or is it just a panfish lure?
The Spin is deadly on both. While crappie and bluegill are primary targets for this weight, smaller and largemouth bass—especially in shallow cover—will strike it readily. Use it as a finesse option when bigger lures aren't producing.
How many lures do I get in a pack?
Each card contains 12 Betts Spin lures, giving you plenty to fish with and to keep in reserve for when snags or lost lures deplete your stock.
Is the Black Chartreuse color versatile?
Yes. Black Chartreuse is a proven pattern that performs in clear water, stained water, and low-light conditions. It's one of the most reliable color choices for panfish and shallow-water bass across a range of water clarity levels.
