“I fish the glacial lakes around northern Indiana and the Homerun Pintail flat-out hammers. The subtle tail action makes it deadly on post-frontal days when the crappie get finicky. It’s become my go-to when I need to pick apart brush piles or vertical fish off the docks. Slab State knocked this one out of the park.”

“The Full Ride has that thump you can feel in the rod handle. Down on Wilson Lake, I fish a lot of open water and the paddle tail keeps 'em honest in those schools. This bait swims with confidence. I even caught a 2.4-pound slab last weekend slow rolling it over a ledge. It’s in the starting lineup from here on out.”

“Perfect combo of flash and profile. I fish Table Rock and Pomme de Terre and it works on both clear and stained water. I pair it with a Slab State pintail or run it solo, it gets bit either way.”

“I fish cold water for most of the year, and the Homerun Pintail has a finesse swagger to it that fits right into our bite window. I rig it on a 1/32 head and just let it fall through the schools on Gull Lake. Clean, simple, and effective. Crappie in Michigan know what time it is.”

“I started with the Tailback jig and now I own every bait in the lineup. There’s something about the Slab State style that makes you want to school the fish harder. Whether I’m pushing jigs on Rathbun or casting docks on Red Rock, the baits feel made for the Midwest. Proud to rep Slab State.”

“The Full Ride swims true on a slow retrieve, which is key up here in the spring when the crappie are staging in the shallows. Paired it with a 1/16 oz Slab State jighead and it crushed. I appreciate that these baits look good and perform. Slab State’s building a culture, not just a tackle box.”
