DeLong Lures are a proven choice for anglers targeting crappie across ponds, lakes, and reservoirs. Our soft plastics are hand-poured in the USA and infused with natural anise scent, giving every bait a realistic smell and feel that convinces even finicky crappie to bite.

Crappie rely heavily on sight and scent, so having a natural, durable soft plastic makes all the difference. DeLong’s insect-inspired baits and miniature soft plastics create lifelike motion whether jigged vertically, slow-rolled under a float, or cast near brush piles.

Top DeLong picks for crappie include:

• Insect Lures – Perfect for mimicking small aquatic bugs and larvae that crappie feed on daily.

• Tadpoles – Lifelike swimming action that works great for suspended or shallow crappie.

• Corn Borer Wax Worms – Soft, realistic grubs ideal for ice fishing or finesse presentations.

From spring crappie runs to winter ice holes, DeLong Lures deliver consistent results and unmatched durability — made in America, proven by decades of success.
