I don’t say this lightly… tomorrow we’re gonna release some of our most realistic full-size crappie to date. EVER Period…. PPP killed it with these!

They’re getting tuned first thing in the morning, and as soon as they’re done, pins pressed and numbers counted, they’ll start going live on the site.

We’ve also got some bright and sassy Mini Crappie, some full-size “Black Magic,” some patterns that simply vibe out, insane Prince colors, and some incredible Herrings too.

Needless to say… BIG day tomorrow!!!

Mini Crappie. Full-size Crappie. Prince. Herring. And you KNOW we got the ChadShad too..

We’ll be adding them to kgbswimbaits.com throughout the day as they come out of the KGB workshop, so keep checking in.

If you’ve been wanting something to splurge on lately, or missed some recent drops, tomorrow is your day.

Some say paint and details don’t matter to fish. We are in the mindset that if you’re confident, we are too! and sometimes that’s the missing ingredient.. so we have a full cabinet of spices and seasonings coming up that will work for everyone. Simply pick what ya like and see!

I’m not sure how long some of these will last. No BS what we have is what we have.. you know our deal. If something is super liked. We will work that into future patterns. But these are basically one offs 20-30 at a time. (If that makes sense). Keeping the game fresh and pushing the envelope!
