BTC Lures "CW Crab Lure" Hot

I always keep an eye out for lifelike artificial baits. I found this one and had to try it. It comes in green, brown and blue colors.

Types of Fish Caught
It has proven successful on Redfish. I have also caught a coupe Black Drum but so far no Sea Trout have hit it. My cousin caught a Large Mouth Bass in a brackish tidal river.

How To Fish It
It dives or sinks slowly unless cranked and remains in the strike zone for a long time. I find that it works well when letting it drift over grasses and oyster bars. I also fish it by casting it up a creek on the falling tide and when it is over the hole at the creeks mouth cranking it down and pausing it. Most strikes happen at the pause.

Problems
The only problem is that if cranked down over snags it does tend to hang up but no more so than other lures with treble hooks. I do occasionally have to tune the lure to run straight.

Would I Recommend It?
Yes, especially if you are targeting Reds. It is a versatile lure to fish in a variety of environments. I rate it a 4 out of 5 because of the specificity to Reds.
