Blakemore Road Runner Heads 1/4 Bulk Chartreuse
The Blakemore Road Runner Heads in 1/4-ounce bulk Chartreuse is a proven crappie jig head built for anglers who want a compact option that still delivers vibration and flash to trigger bites. Whether you're spider rigging from a quiet boat, slow trolling structure, or working live bait around brush and timber, these heads pair the visibility of a bright chartreuse finish with a reliable under-spin design that keeps crappie—especially white crappie and black crappie—interested in your presentation.
The heart of the Road Runner system is the nickel-plated brass Indiana blade, which produces sound and vibration that travel effectively through the water column without the commotion of a full-size spinnerbait. That action, combined with the sticky-sharp hook, means faster penetration when a crappie commits. At 1/4-ounce, this head weight is light enough for shallow to moderate depths and responsive to rod work, yet heavy enough to cast without a lot of finesse and to maintain bottom contact when you're working vertical presentations or slow moves along drop-offs.
Bulk packaging makes these heads economical for tournament anglers, guides, and anyone who fishes crappie seriously. Keep a few rigged and ready, and swap colors and blade styles to match conditions and mood. Chartreuse is a standout choice in stained water, low light, and when crappie are active and looking up. The Road Runner head has earned its reputation as a no-nonsense crappie tool that works from spring pre-spawn through fall, in lakes, ponds, and river systems where crappie congregate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use Road Runner Heads for spider rigging and trolling?
Yes. The under-spin design is effective both ways. Spider rigging—dropping heads vertically around shallow cover and brush—works great with live bait. Slow trolling lets you cover more water and work deeper zones while the blade vibration attracts crappie from a distance.
What fish will bite Road Runner Heads?
These are designed for crappie, both white and black crappie. The 1/4-ounce size and under-spin presentation match crappie feeding behavior across a wide range of depths and seasons.
Why is chartreuse a good color choice?
Chartreuse stands out in stained or murky water and in low-light conditions like dawn, dusk, and overcast days. It's also effective when crappie are active and feeding, which is why it's a confidence color for many crappie anglers.
What does bulk packaging mean?
Bulk means you get a larger quantity of heads in one package, making it more economical than buying individual or small-pack quantities. It's ideal if you fish regularly, guide, or fish tournaments.
