Leland Crappie Magnet Tiny Dancer 2" 12pc Midnight Blue

The Leland Crappie Magnet Tiny Dancer 2" paddle tail grub is a compact, action-packed bait designed specifically for crappie fishing. At just 2 inches long, this 12-piece pack in Midnight Blue offers the small profile that crappie respond to across shallow structure, brush, and open water. Whether you're casting and retrieving, long-lining under a bobber, or pitching to individual targets marked on sonar, the Tiny Dancer delivers the natural movement and flash that triggers aggressive strikes from crappie and other panfish species.

The paddle tail design generates genuine swimming action on every retrieve, making the lure effective from spring spawning shallows through summer depths. The dark Midnight Blue color works especially well in stained water, around timber, and during low-light conditions. This is a workhorse bait for anglers who want to cover water quickly or fish methodically around structure—and at 12 lures per pack, you'll have backups when fish tear into them or snag cover.

Pair the Tiny Dancer with a light jighead suited to your water depth and presentation style. Crappie fishing rewards finesse and accuracy; this bait delivers both in a proven, compact package that has earned its place in tackle boxes from farm ponds to reservoirs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What presentation methods work best with the Tiny Dancer?

The Tiny Dancer excels in three primary presentations: cast-and-retrieve for active fish in open water, long-line with a bobber for suspended crappie, and vertical pitch-and-jigging over structure and marked targets on your sonar. Choose your method based on water conditions and where you locate fish.

What size jighead should I pair with this bait?

That depends on your target depth and current. Use lighter jigheads for shallow presentations and slower retrieves in calm conditions; go heavier for deeper water and stronger current. Start with 1/16 to 1/8 ounce and adjust based on how the bait falls and swims.

Will the Tiny Dancer catch fish other than crappie?

Yes. While engineered for crappie, the small profile and action attract bluegill, sunfish, small walleye, and other panfish species—making it a versatile choice for light-tackle fishing across multiple species.
