Profile family
Hand-Poured Shad, Minnows & Reapers
Choose between a baitfish silhouette and a flatter leech-style profile, then compare the length and tail shape within that family.
The Reaper size comparison
The 2.5-inch Reaper is the compact flat-tail option; the 3.75-inch version adds length while keeping a restrained leech-style outline. Compare them around your drop-shot hook or light head. The longer 4.25-inch Leech is also worth considering when you want more body in that finesse family.
Three different baitfish outlines
The 2.75-inch Forked Tail Minnow is the small minnow choice. The 5-inch Delta Tail Shad supplies a broader triangular tail behind a baitfish body. The 6-inch Wormtail Shad adds overall length with a slender trailing tail. A broader flat tail is a different feature from a boot-tail swimbait.
Let hook fit narrow the list
A small minnow on a light head and a larger soft jerkbait on a weighted hook do not need the same hardware. Compare the amount of body available for the keeper or hook and the length left behind it. The full product pages connect those shape differences to specific rig options.
