Slater Original Jig 1/16 White/Blue/Blue 12/cd

The Slater Original Jig in 1/16 ounce is the classic crappie lure that built a reputation for consistent catches across Southern waters. Hand-crafted at Slater's Mississippi facility, these jigs combine time-tested design with quality materials—the foundation of productive crappie fishing whether you're working shallow brush, dock pilings, or submerged timber. The 1/16 size excels in light-cover situations and responds well to the subtle presentations crappie anglers prefer.

What makes the Original Jig stand out is attention to detail in construction. The plump chenille body provides the profile crappie recognize and strike, while the full kip tail adds natural movement that triggers bites. The duo-flasher streamers create flash and vibration in the water column, drawing fish from nearby cover without overwhelming the presentation. Gold hooks ensure reliable hook sets on these spring-spawning fighters.

The white/blue/blue color combination is a proven pattern for various water conditions and light levels. Whether you're jigging live minnows or using the jig solo, the 1/16 ounce weight makes it easy to maintain control in confined spaces and shallower water where crappie congregate. A dozen jigs per card means you'll have backups when tangles happen—and on productive days, you'll go through them.
