Blakemore Road Runner Heads 1/16 Bulk Red
The Blakemore Road Runner Heads 1/16 Bulk Red puts a proven crappie-catching design in your tackle box at a price that makes sense for serious panfish hunters. These jig heads pair a sharp hook with a nickel-plated brass Indiana blade that delivers the flash, vibration, and subtle sound that trigger crappie strikes. Whether you're spider rigging from the boat, trolling structure, or poling into shallow cover with live bait, Road Runner heads give you a dependable platform to work your presentation all day without breaking the bank.
The 1/16-ounce weight hits the sweet spot for crappie applications—light enough to work slowly through brush and timber, heavy enough to cast and control in modest current or when you need to cover more water. The nickel finish on the brass blade stays visible in stained water and maintains its reflective appeal through multiple outings. Bulk packaging means you're stocked up for a full season of crappie hunting without the markup of single-pack retail.
If you fish crappie with live minnows and shiners regularly, Road Runner heads are a no-fuss addition to any panfish arsenal. They work in spring spawning scenarios, summer deep-water patterns, and fall staging areas—anywhere crappie congregate and respond to a small profile with genuine action.
