Black Label Tapout Jr Balsa Crankbait

The Black Label Tapout Jr Balsa Crankbait is the compact version of the proven Tapout, built with a 2 1/2″ balsa body and a smaller coffin-style bill to deliver precise, controlled action. Despite its smaller profile, the Tapout Jr dives deep for its size and produces a tight, subtle action that excels throughout the year.

This bait is a standout choice in cold water, when bass respond better to tighter movement, and equally effective in warm water when offshore fish need a different presentation than wide-wobbling, hard-vibrating crankbaits. Its balanced body design, coffin bill, and internal weight placement allow it to perform exceptionally well around wood and rock.

A custom-cut Lexan bill provides excellent durability and deflection, while the bait’s reverse float helps it back out of cover like brush piles, laydowns, and timber. Whether you’re targeting steep banks, points, ledges, shell beds, or offshore structure, the Tapout Jr is a versatile crankbait that consistently gets bit.
