Where is a good place to buy Slab Bandits? Also is there a color chart available to look at?
Thank You for your time and help in advance!

I buy mine directly from Crazy Angler (on the web). They have pictures of their Slab Bandits and their color. Those are my favorite jigs. Sour Grape, LA Shad, and Texas Toast are my three "go to" jigs. However, I have several other Slab Bandit colors that I really like and use a lot too.

In the Ft. Worth area, Fun-N-Sun on Hwy 10 in Hurst(?) and Anglers in North Richland Hills off Rouf Snow both carry a good selection as well as going direct on line. Very good baits.

Lake Fork Marina and Oakridge both have a supply of Slab Bandits in the Lake Fork area. I get most of mine directly from Crazy Angler. Sour Grape has been very good to me on Lake Fork. You can find a color selector right on the website at Crazy Angler.

Order them from Crazy Angler. I only use Slab Bandits anymore when I Crappie fish.

I have every color that they make but after trying them all I only use a few anymore.

Texas Toast, Firehouse Shad are similar but Firehouse shows up in off color water better.

Light blue back with a white belly in the winter time, can't recall its name right now.

I don't know why they catch fish but they do.

Good luck. You will find that they are a well made and very tuff jig that catches fish. thumb

Hot pink jigheads. A drop of gel glue between the head and the plastic will help keep the plastic on the hook properly.

90% of the time, the 1000 series (1.75"). They will catch crappie all year long. In the late summer when there a lot of small shad, I will downsize to the 1250 series (1.25"). During the fall, I always have the large size rigged up in case they are real aggressive 2375 series (2.375").

Thx Gamblinman. I can't get the different colors to pull up. Anywhere else I can try?

Click on the link in my post above. Once that opens, click the picture of the bait...that should open up the different colors in an expanded view...then you can click on each color.

Hope this link will work. It has the color and the name.

There are many more colors than this, but it will get you started.
