Thread: Road runner magic

Some say they want bite artificials but the 1/32 roadrunner works magic I say .

Very nice

A 1/32 oz roadrunner head and tube or grub body pulled slow through a bluegill or redear bed will have your rod bent all the time. It's deadly on crappie too...The slow fall and smaller blade profile will work better than a 1/16 oz or heavier sometimes. I have had some problems with some of the Roadrunner brand 1/32 oz in recent years getting the blade to spin good on the fall or slow retrieve.Some batche are fine and then some I got to fiddle with,need that blade to spin good to work best.

Nice catch. I catch tons of them a year on a Trout Magnet. Many people tell me also they will not hit artificial.

Very nice! Can't hardly beat a Roadrunner.

I catch everything on a road runner, they are a must have in my box.

Nice fish

Had there never been a marabou Roadrunner ever made :

I wouldn't have caught (literally) hundreds of Crappie.
I wouldn't have caught quite a few Bass (2-6lbs in weight)
I wouldn't have caught the Tiger Muskie that hangs on my living room wall.

And I wouldn't have caught numerous Drum, Catfish, Bluegill, Green Sunfish, or Warmouth.

Just Sayin'

roadrunners are excellent but personally i like to just dip a small jig into BG beds, they attack dang near anything and you can put it right on their noses with a long rod.

Love the RR's, nice pics!!

I use jigs,or honey worms for nesting gills,but gonna give under spins and micro cranks a try.
