What lipless crankbait manufacturers make small cranks like 1/4 ounce or less? I need something small. Like 2 inches or less

Bill Lewis rat l trap.

Cotton Cordell Super Spot, Rat L trap, and also the bass pro shops xps rattle shad is a VERY good one. The smallest red eye is a good one too.

1/4 red eye shad.

Fantastic bait

Xcaliber XR25 is a great bait, they even make a one knocker version. 

 I use both the 1/4 oz. XR25 Xcalibur, and the 1/4 Strike King Red Eye Shad. Both are great baits. If you want to go smaller, Rat-L-Traps come in a tiny 1/8th oz version.

1/4 oz Trap is where Bill Lewis started, the 1/8 oz Trap will get ya some huge Crappie.

Excalibur XR25 is my favorite. The TX3 hooks it comes with are fantastic. They aren't small and weak like most found on many small traps. I hate changing trebles. If you're looking for something unique check out the R2S glassi vibe. These things are tiny but cast like a rock.

Xrk 25 knocker is my go to search bait every time I am fishing a new body of water. That lure is a great indicator of fish conditions.

1/4 red eye shad.

Fantastic bait

I agree. Red craw, tomato and sexy shad are great.

1/4 oz. red eye shad is what I use most of the time in the ponds around here. Works awesome.

They're deadly on bull bluegill and trout also. One of my favorite baits for light spinning gear.

No, but you'd probably be better off with the 1/8oz teeny trap from Bill Lewis for yellow perch.

Depends on what kind of perch?

I've caught crappie on a 1/2 oz trap, now I'm talking 2-2 1/2# crappie.

White perch and yellow perch

Xcaliber XR25 is a great bait, they even make a one knocker version. 

Its hard to beat a one knocker in my opinion.  The sound the single rattle gives off is so much less agressive than the original multiple ball rattles but still gives off enough sound to call them in from a decent distance. I especially like this sound for my smaller baits since it is so much less threatening to those reluctant fish.

I always go with an 1/8 oz. Cotton Cordell Super Spot. i may be targeting bass, but i'd rather catch another species than get skunked. it increases my chances.
