Blakemore Slab Runner w/Baby Shad 1/8oz #2 Bone White Chart

The Blakemore Slab Runner with Baby Shad is a compact underspin lure built for crappie anglers who want a versatile option that works year-round. At 1/8 ounce, it's light enough for shallow structure and responsive to subtle rod work, yet substantial enough to cast effectively and maintain contact with cover. The combination of a small profile and a proven head design makes this a go-to choice whether you're working brush, docks, or open water during the pre-spawn, spawn, or post-spawn crappie bite.

The Bone White Chart color scheme offers high visibility in stained water and low-light conditions—think early morning, overcast days, or murky ponds where crappie need a clear visual target. This two-tone finish is a classic combination that consistently produces across different water clarity ranges, giving you confidence that you're showing crappie something they'll respond to.

Whether you fish tournaments, target slab crappie for the table, or simply love the finesse and excitement of underspin fishing, the Slab Runner's compact design and time-tested head work with nearly any spinning rod setup. It's equally at home on a light bass rod or a dedicated crappie outfit, and it casts smooth enough to cover water efficiently without fatigue.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size crappie will the Slab Runner catch?

The #2 hook and 1/8 ounce weight target keeper-size crappie and will handle fish up to a couple of pounds, though the lure excels on school fish in the 8–12 inch range.

Can I use this on a standard bass or walleye spinning rod?

Absolutely. The 1/8 ounce weight casts well on light to medium-light spinning setups and pairs nicely with 4–8 pound test line, so you're not locked into a specialized crappie rod.

Does the Bone White Chart color work in all water types?

Yes. This two-tone finish provides visibility and contrast across clear to moderately stained water, making it a solid all-around choice when you're unsure of the exact light and water conditions you'll face.
