Anybody tried the Casey's Clasic RR for Crappie?
So one of the big bass tournament guys won a recent Bassmaster Classic using some oversize Road Runners that he poured himself in his garage. Blakemore jumped on it and signed him to an endorsement deal and started producing his version of the RR and marketing them as Casey's Classic, its basically a Road Runner in either 1/4 or 3/8 oz with a willow style blade that is much bigger than the blade on the standard size RRs.
The standard size RRs are deadly on crappie and they say bigger baits catch bigger fish so I'm wondering if anyone has tried the Casey's Classics on crappie. I bought a few and tried them at my father-in-laws pond and can attest that they are deadly on bass, I used the Yums paddle tail flukes that are recommended on the packages. I wonder how they would do on crappie with an oversized tube or curly tail grub, bet they would work great. I just haven't had the chance to try yet.
Only drawback is they are very expensive, one jig will cost you about the same as a decent crank bait, around $5.
