Leland Crappie Magnet Hammer 8pc White/Chart

The Leland Crappie Magnet Hammer is a 2-3/8" soft plastic minnow bait built for modern crappie fishing, especially when you're running forward-facing sonar on open water. Designed by Brandon Smith, this lure delivers the profile and action panfish anglers need to pinpoint and trigger bites on live-imaging sonar. The 8-piece white and chartreuse color combination gives you versatility across water clarity and light conditions—white for clearer water and bright days, chartreuse for stained water or low-light periods. Whether you're sight-fishing suspended schools or prospecting new water, the Hammer works best paired with a 1/8 or 3/16 ounce jig head.

This bait shines in open water applications where you can see fish on screen and place a precise presentation in front of them. Its compact size and profile mimic natural forage without overwhelming smaller crappie, and it holds up through multiple casts and fish. The inclusion of eight baits per pack means you'll have replacements ready when the current one gets torn up or lost—a common reality when you're actively fishing live sonar and working shallow structure.

While the Hammer was engineered with forward-facing sonar in mind, it's versatile enough for traditional jigging, casting, and other crappie techniques. Pair it with quality crappie jig heads and consider adding Crappie Magnet Slab Bites to your arsenal for complete coverage of your local crappie grounds.
