Bobby Garland ITTYBIT Slab Hunter 1.25in 20ct Blue Ice

The Bobby Garland ITTYBIT Slab Hunter is a compact soft plastic crappie bait built for panfish hunters who want to match the natural forage that slab crappie actually hunt. At just 1.25 inches, these baits are sized perfectly for crappie—small enough to trigger strikes from selective fish, yet substantial enough to cast on light tackle. The Blue Ice color mimics natural shad and minnow patterns that crappie feed on year-round, whether you're fishing shallow brush, creek channels, or deeper structure.

What makes the Slab Hunter effective is its balance of a solid, durable body paired with a thin, responsive tail. That tail action pulses and wobbles on the drop and during retrieves, creating the kind of subtle disturbance that provokes crappie bites without looking unnatural. Whether you're jigging vertically in spring spawns, casting to wood during summer, or working drop-offs in fall, the body stays intact through multiple fish and rod-snaps, so you get consistent performance across the 20-count package.

Bobby Garland baits have earned their reputation in the crappie world because they're engineered by anglers who understand what these fish want. The ITTYBIT line strips away unnecessary gimmicks and focuses on proven action and durability. If you're rigging these on a 1/16- or 1/8-ounce jighead, you'll find the Slab Hunter responds quickly and stays in the strike zone longer—a real advantage when crappie are following but hesitant to commit.
