🪝 Tackle to Pair With It
No crappie setup is complete without the right baits. These VEXAN tackle picks make great stocking stuffers and perfectly complement the Crappie & Panfish Rod.
🧊 1. VEXAN T-VEX Tungsten Jig
Shop: Ice Jigs – VEXAN®
Tiny, tough, and incredibly effective — the T-VEX Tungsten Jig is the definition of finesse fishing. Tungsten sinks faster and transmits vibration better than lead, giving you more sensitivity and control.
Why it’s a must-have gift:
-
Small profile that still gets down quickly
-
Super sharp hooks and vibrant color options
-
Perfect for vertical jigging or under a float
-
Works great for both open-water and ice crappie
🎣 Try the 1.1g or 0.8g size for most crappie situations.
⚡ 2. VEXAN Blade Bait
Shop: Triton Blade – VEXAN®
When crappie move deeper or the water cools off, vibration baits can make all the difference. The VEXAN Blade Bait sends off a tight pulse that triggers reaction strikes — especially from larger, more aggressive crappie.
Why it’s a great stocking stuffer:
-
Adds flash and vibration for tough bites
-
Ideal for vertical jigging through ice or deeper open water
-
Durable finish and balanced body for consistent action
🎁 For most crappie, the 1/4 oz blade bait is perfect.
