Bobby Garland LiveRoam'R 1.75" 15ct Cajun Cricket
The Bobby Garland LiveRoam'R 1.75" soft-plastic crappie bait is a compact minnow imitation built for modern crappie fishing. Whether you're scanning structure with forward-facing sonar, casting to shallow cover, or working a jig vertically, this 1.75-inch profile fills a gap in your crappie arsenal that larger swimbaits can't. Bobby Garland designed it to mimic the natural swimming action of a real baitfish—tight, subtle, and lifelike—so crappie respond instinctively rather than suspiciously.
The LiveRoam'R's streamlined shape and balanced design let you fish it multiple ways. Rig it upright for a lively, natural presentation, or thread it flat for a dying-baitfish look that often triggers aggressive takes from inactive fish. Its symmetrical profile means no wasted rigging time or guessing which end goes forward—just select the action you want and fish.
Versatility is the strength here. Cast and retrieve over submerged timber, drop it vertically alongside dock pilings, troll long-line setups across deeper structure, or use it in spider-rigging spreads where a smaller profile keeps the bite honest. This is the size and shape crappie pros reach for when they want to match the forage in the water column without sacrificing the natural movement that makes soft plastics work.
Each pack contains 15 baits in Cajun Cricket—a natural color pattern that works across regions and seasons. Stock these in your tackle box for early-season shallow fishing, midsummer deeper structure, and fall transition patterns.
