Blakemore Road Runner Heads 1/8 4ct Chartreuse

The Blakemore Road Runner Heads 1/8 in chartreuse are proven finesse jigs built for crappie anglers who want to cover water efficiently. These underspin heads pair a sharp hook with a compact nickel-over-brass Indiana blade that kicks out flash and vibration—exactly what crappie respond to when they're scattered or suspended. At 1/8 ounce, they're light enough to fish slowly on spinning gear and responsive enough to feel bites clearly, making them ideal for spider rigging, trolling, or vertical presentations around structure.

The chartreuse color cuts through stained or low-light water and stays visible in deeper depths, giving you an edge when crappie are less willing to chase. Pair each head with live minnows, shiners, or small soft plastics depending on the bite and season. The sticky-sharp hooks are designed to penetrate quickly and hold securely, so you land more of what you hook. Whether you're working a full rigging setup or simply casting and slow-rolling along channel breaks, these heads deliver the combination of sound, flash, and natural motion that makes the Road Runner series a go-to choice for serious crappie fishing.

You get four heads per pack, which is enough to load up your spider-rigging rig or have backups ready. Blakemore has been making these heads for decades because they work—simple, reliable, and effective for crappie of all sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best way to rig Blakemore Road Runner Heads for spider rigging?

Thread live bait (minnows or shiners) onto the sharp hook and suspend the head under your boat using multiple rods—the blade vibration and flash will trigger strikes from crappie below. The 1/8 ounce weight works well in shallow to moderate depths.

Can I use these heads for trolling?

Yes. The compact Indiana blade generates consistent vibration and flash at trolling speeds, and the 1/8 ounce weight is light enough to keep near the bottom or suspended without heavy line.

What kind of live bait works best with Road Runner Heads?

Live minnows and shiners are traditional choices and work excellently. Some anglers also use soft plastics or other small baitfish depending on local crappie forage and conditions.

How many heads come in a pack?

Four heads per pack, giving you enough for a full spider-rigging setup or as backups for replacement.
