Blakemore Roadrunner Head Weedless 1/16 #2 2ct Unpainted
The Blakemore Roadrunner Head Weedless jighead is built for crappie anglers who fish heavy cover without constantly losing gear to snags and vegetation. This 1/16-ounce weedless jighead with a #2 hook comes as a 2-pack in unpainted finish—perfect for pairing with your choice of soft plastics or live bait. The adjustable weed guard lets you dial in protection based on what you're fishing: tighten it up for thick moss and brush, or back it off when you're working cleaner structure where a lighter touch helps with hook-ups.
Crappie fishing rewards precise presentations in shallow wood and grass, and the small 1/16-ounce weight keeps your bait moving slowly through the strike zone without dragging bottom or fouling on every cast. The unpainted heads give you maximum flexibility—they work well bare, or you can match them to whatever soft plastic color or profile you're running that day. Whether you're jigging under docks, working along grass lines, or probing timber, the weedless design means fewer lost rigs and more time fishing instead of re-tying.
Blakemore's adjustable weed guard is the real advantage here. Instead of being locked into a single protection level, you tune the guard to match conditions on the water. That adaptability is especially valuable when you're transitioning between different cover types or fishing multiple spots in a single outing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best way to adjust the weed guard?
Start with the weed guard positioned to protect the hook point for the cover you're fishing—tighter if you're in dense vegetation, looser if you're on cleaner structure or when you want maximum hook exposure for better penetration on the bite.
Can I use these with soft plastics and live bait?
Yes. The unpainted jighead works with soft plastic bodies, live shiners, or minnows. Match the size to your #2 hook and 1/16-ounce weight to keep the presentation balanced and natural.
What does unpainted mean, and why choose it?
Unpainted heads are bare lead or bare metal, giving you complete control over color matching. Pair them with the exact soft plastic color or live bait color you want—or leave them bare if that's what the crappie are biting that day.
Is this 1/16 ounce suitable for shallow crappie fishing?
Yes. The 1/16-ounce weight is designed for shallow-water crappie presentations, allowing slow, controlled drops through brush and along shallow structure where crappie typically hold.
