Overview
Built around Jacob Wheeler’s input, this 3.5-inch craw-style soft bait is made for bass anglers who want a compact profile with active movement. Its claws deliver a tight-kicking action, while the forward-facing legs add a more subtle secondary motion that can help round out the presentation. The ribbed body is designed for rigging from either side to help extend bait life and keep the hook point protected, and it can be used for flipping, punching, dragging, or as a trailer. Each pack includes 7 baits.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- At 3.5 inches, this craw is sized for a specific presentation style rather than a broad range of applications.
- The tight-kicking claws and subtle secondary leg action are designed for a particular look and movement, so it may not suit anglers wanting a more aggressive profile.
- The bait is sold in a 7-count pack, which may require more frequent restocking if you fish it heavily.
- Its ribbed hook slots are intended to maximize usage and protect the hook point, but the bait is still a soft plastic and will wear with repeated rigging and strikes.
