All I'm gonna say about Roadrunners is ... they've accounted for nearly 30% of all the keeper Crappie I've caught over the last 30yrs, and probably over 50% of all Crappie over 2lbs that I've EVER caught.
That would be the solid chartreuse marabou 1/16oz Roadrunner & the solid pink marabou 1/16oz Roadrunner ... to be specific.

100% of mine are caught on roadrunner heads but that's all I use.
I never heard a good reason for why I shouldn't use one.

When I two pole I like to use a ball head on one rod and a pony head on the other. Here's some I poured.

Are those the Rosco swivels?? They look different than the crane swivels that I've been using.

I've never found one yet that had an issue. Maybe I'm just lucky.The one problem I'm always seeming to experience is that they paint the swivels. This causes the blades not to rotate at all, or not at slow speeds. I use to chuck the blades in a hand drill and buzz it a few times to free it up. This has given me better results, but you'd think that with the popularity of this lure, that the manufacturers would pay more attention to this detail? In any case, rain has prevented us from going out several times this week, so we'll give these a whirl next time we are able to go out and not get wet!
