Dancing Waxie By Another Name???

**Gill Fisher** · 06-01-2024, 07:36 PM

We were fishing the other day and the Crappie were only hitting small stuff. We suspect there was some type of insect hatch going on. Anyway, my buddy pulled some small plastics out of one of his boxes and we started getting hits right and left. When I got home I began searching the internet for the lure. I finally ran across something called “Dancing Waxie” and ordered some. They looked like the same thing and they were the same length, but they were WAY skinnier than the ones my buddy gave me. I had to drop down to a 1/64 oz jig to find a hook small enough to get them on the hook. My Buddy’s plastics went on a 1/32 with no problem and I could have gotten them on a 1/16 if the hook hadn’t been so long. Does anyone know of another dealer that makes fatter ones? My Buddy said he thought he got his at Sportsman’s Warehouse but it had been some years ago.

Thanks,
Gill Fisher

Yeap, CrappiePappy, but those are the tiny ones. Who makes the fat ones?

... those were all I could find. Maybe you could see if Snake River has something along those lines. I looked at his website (bobsjigs.com) and these are the closest thing he makes - untitled7
Then again, I have no idea how thick the body of the Little Worms are, and most of his baits are on the small size.

I have some of those tiny 1" shad baits I think I got from Bob's Jigs. Been a while since I used one. I didn't know Steve had that mold.
