Lanier Lures Stalker Series Tilapia Swimbait – Crappie Killer
Lanier Lures Stalker Series Tilapia Swimbait – Crappie Killer
Looks like lunch. Swims like the real thing.
Crappie Killer on the tilapia body style blank is one of the most convincing panfish imitations in the Stalker Series. With a dark blue-grey back, bold mottled black crappie pattern, silver-grey belly, teal-green fins, and a striking iridescent predator eye, this bait is a dead-on match for the black crappie that big bass are actively hunting.
When they’re eating crappie, nothing else comes close.
The wide, deep tilapia-style body creates a natural side-to-side swimming action that mimics a panfish moving through the water column. The hyper-realistic crappie paint detail and lifelike profile make it nearly indistinguishable from the real thing — and bass can’t resist it. Whether you’re slow-rolling it along the bottom, swimming it through structure, or letting it glide on a slack line, Crappie Killer delivers the exact profile that triggers instinctive strikes.
