Stutzie Mini Fry Artificial Bait
Premium Micro Soft Plastic Bait for Panfish & Crappie
The Stutzie Mini Fry Artificial Bait is a handcrafted soft-plastic fishing bait designed to mimic tiny baitfish fry, ideal for panfish, crappie, bluegill, perch, and trout. These ultra-small lures are ideal for micro jig heads or ice-fishing rigs, triggering bites when fish are finicky. Sold in convenient 3-pack assortments with multiple high-contrast colors, this bait delivers lifelike action and unmatched attraction for selective feeders.
Irresistible Stutzie Mini Fry baits by the maker of the famous Stutzie Bass Killer. This small Amish company has been cranking out some of the most sought-after fishing baits used in the Midwest. Micro, dime-sized soft bodies work well on 1/80-oz jig hooks or on ice-fishing jigs with a #10 or smaller hook in the winter months. Ideal for panfish, bluegill, crappie, or perch.
Sold in three packs of 20 each in colors of red, black, white, yellow, or purple. Purple is by far the most popular. Select three of the different colors, a combination of colors, or all the same color. Split them up with family or friends.

Description / Stutzie Mini Fry Artificial Bait
Handcrafted Soft Plastic Mini Fry — Ultimate Micro Lure for Panfish & Freshwater Species
Experience next-level freshwater fishing with the Stutzie Mini Fry Artificial Bait, a soft plastic bait engineered to mimic natural fry and tiny forage fish that trigger aggressive strikes from panfish, crappie, bluegill, and perch. These micro fishing lures perform exceptionally on ultra-light tackle — from finesse jig heads (1/80th oz) to ice fishing jigs with #10 or smaller hooks — giving you a natural presentation where traditional lures fail.
Versatile Performance Across Seasons
Whether you’re casting along shaded structure during spring panfish runs, suspending under a bobber for eager crappies, or jigging through winter ice, the realistic profile and soft plastic action make Mini Fry a go-to choice for selective fish that key in on tiny forage. Anglers consistently report bites where others mark fish but can’t hook up.
Color Assortments for All Conditions
Choose from vibrant colors like red, black, white, yellow, and purple — with purple being a proven catch-trigger in heavy pressure waters. Pick mixed assortments or all-same choices to match water clarity and fish preferences.
Why Stutzie Mini Fry Stands Out
• Ultra-small soft plastic lure designed for precise presentation
• Ideal for panfish, crappie, bluegill, perch, and trout
• Works with micro jigs, finesse setups, and ice rigs
• Handpicked color choices for varied fishing conditions
Add these high-action micro bait lures to your tackle box and turn subtle strikes into solid landings on every trip.
These baits are not widely known, except among fishermen in the Midwest. The pros like to keep it that way. They keep tight-lipped, not wanting to share them with the competition. Secretly, they go to a Stutzie bait when the fish are just not biting.
Here is a fishing report from L.M. in May of 2023. “We could not resist going fishing after we got the New Stutzie Mini Fry this morning. My very first cast with the purple glo Fry, I got an 11” crappie!! With the others, I caught bluegill. Of course, they work; they gobbled them right up!”
