Description

Introducing the thinnest bait on the musky market, the ROADKILL™! With its impressive thin profile this bait is an excellent representation of a bluegill, crappie or shad profile! We set out to mimic the same action a having a live bluegill on the end of your line and we did just that! With its ability to be erratic, its hard thumping action and its ability to troll well at high speeds, this crankbait sets the stage for thin profile baits. ROADKILL™ comes equipped with a nice rattle as well, giving it added attention where sound is needed! We designed this bait to support #6 HD split rings and the VMC 9626 4X strong hooks without compromising incredible action. If you are looking for a hard thumping and shower running crankbait, ROADKILL™ will fit that category and then some!

Field Notes

Use this thin-profile crankbait when you want a hard-thumping, erratic baitfish presentation that imitates bluegill, crappie, or shad. It is suited to casting around cover or open water and can also be trolled at higher speeds when covering water for active fish.

Pros

  • Thin profile mimics common forage like bluegill, crappie, and shad
  • Hard-thumping action with an erratic track
  • Rattle adds attraction
  • Works for both casting and trolling

Cons

  • May be less effective when fish want a subtle presentation
  • Best suited to fish that will chase a moving bait
