Blakemore Road Runner Maribou 1/16 Red/White 2pk
The Blakemore Road Runner Marabou underspin jig is a compact, proven lure for crappie and panfish. This 1/16-ounce jig combines a painted head, marabou body, and spinner blade in a two-pack featuring red and white colorways—a classic pairing that works in various light and water conditions. The underspin design lets the blade's vibration do the talking, triggering strikes from crappie, bluegill, and other panfish that respond to subtle motion and flash.
Road Runner jigs excel in shallow grass, around structure, and over submerged brush where crappie congregate. The marabou skirt breathes and pulses on the drop and during slow retrieves, mimicking natural forage. Because these are compact 1/16-ounce heads, they're ideal for finesse presentations when fish are inactive or when you're working shallow water where heavier lures aren't practical.
Whether you're vertical jigging from a dock, working weeds from shore, or covering flats on a light-tackle panfish trip, having two color options in your tackle box means you can quickly adapt to what the crappie want. Road Runner jigs have earned their place in countless crappie boxes for a reason—they catch fish consistently.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best way to fish Road Runner marabou jigs for crappie?
Road Runners work on vertical jigging, casting to cover, and slow dragging presentations. The marabou action is most effective on a slow fall or with gentle lifts of the rod. They're excellent for working brush, grass, and shallow structure where crappie hide.
Will these 1/16-ounce jigs work in deeper water?
The light weight is best suited to shallow water presentations. In deeper situations, you may want heavier jigs to maintain bottom contact and proper jigging cadence.
What's included in the two-pack?
You get two jigs total—one red/white and one white (or the red/white combinations shown). This gives you options to switch colors on the water without losing time.
Are Road Runner jigs good for bluegill and other panfish besides crappie?
Yes. The underspin blade and marabou design attract bluegill, sunfish, and other panfish that respond to light vibration and movement in shallow water.
