Small movements can make a big difference when crappie, bluegill, and perch are focused on a compact presentation. The Freedom Baitz Tomahawk pairs a slender body with a broad, angular tail that responds to subtle jigging input, giving anglers an active soft-plastic option for both ice fishing and open water.

Thread the Tomahawk onto a jig head and work it around fish-holding structure with controlled jigging movements.

The smaller profile also gives ice anglers a compact panfish presentation.
