Blind Squirrel Baits 2" "Slab Slayer" Crappie and Panfish Slayer Bait

2" Slab Slayer – Crappie and Panfish Killer

The 2" Slab Slayer from Blind Squirrel Baits is a compact, high-performance soft plastic bait made to put more crappie and panfish in your boat. Whether you’re dock shooting, vertical jigging brush piles, or trolling open water, this bait delivers a natural profile and tail-kicking action that panfish can’t ignore. Designed with precision and built for results, the Slab Slayer earns its name with every slab you swing over the rail.

Mimics Natural Forage

With its slim baitfish silhouette and fluttering tail, the Slab Slayer imitates minnows, shiners, small shad, and aquatic insects—staples in the diet of crappie, bluegill, and other panfish. The subtle quiver of the tail activates with even the slightest movement, making it effective whether fished aggressively or finessed.

Premium Design Features

• Streamlined Body – Thin, straight design mimics the shape and movement of natural prey.

• Kicking Paddle Tail – The small boot tail creates just enough vibration and flash to draw attention without overdoing it.

• Durable Soft Plastic – Designed to last through multiple catches while remaining soft enough for fish to hang on.

• Vibrant Color Selection – Available in high-vis, natural, and two-tone combinations to suit every light and water condition.

Preferred Rigging Styles

The 2" Slab Slayer works exceptionally well across several common crappie and panfish rigging techniques:

• Jig Head (1/64 to 1/16 oz) – Ideal for vertical jigging, casting, and dock shooting.

• Slip Float Rig – Deadly when suspended over beds, brush, or cribs.

• Spider Rigging / Trolling – A natural swimming motion at slow speeds makes this bait a go-to for long-line and spider-rig anglers.

• Micro Drop Shot – Finesse approach for suspended fish in deeper water or heavy pressure situations.

Where to Fish

Fish the Slab Slayer anywhere panfish are found—docks, brush piles, shallow beds, cribs, rocky outcroppings, or suspended in open water. Effective year-round, it’s especially deadly during pre-spawn and cold fronts when fish want a smaller profile and tighter action.

How to Rig and Fish the 2" Slab Slayer

• Pair with a 1/32 oz or 1/16 oz jig head for casting, vertical jigging, or shooting.

• Fish under a slip float for suspended presentations over structure.

• Use light line (2–6 lb) for best action and sensitivity.

• Retrieve slow with occasional twitches or let it pendulum down into the strike zone.
