1" Cricket Soft Lure – Handcrafted Panfish & Trout Bait

Tiny Profile. Big Results. Handcrafted in the Ozarks, our 1" Cricket soft lure mimics the natural movement and silhouette of a real cricket — triggering instinctive strikes from bluegill, crappie, trout, and other finesse targets. Whether you're float-fishing a farm pond or drop-shotting a mountain stream, this bait delivers lifelike action in a bite-sized package.
