Robertqq Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Hello, Anyone know of a source for really small (soft bait) Craws ? Perhaps under 3 inch size. How would one best rig Craws this small ? Thanks, Bob Quote
Megastink Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Well, Netbait makes a tiny paca craw. You could try a 3" chigger craw or even a chiggar chunk. Missle baits has a drop craw which is 2.75", or thereabouts. I'd rig it on a jighead, or shakey head. Perhaps on a slit shot rig with a #1 gammy offset pen hook. You're basically talking about super light tactics. Quote
Super User HoosierHawgs Posted February 1, 2015 Super User Posted February 1, 2015 Baby Rage Craw, Small Size Craw Papis, Netbait Tiny Paca... Numerous options. They can make great finesse casting jig trailers, I really like to fish the smallest size Papis on the back of a Bitsy Bug in creeks during the summer. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted February 1, 2015 Super User Posted February 1, 2015 Rage Tail Baby Craw T-rigged or Rage Rigged. Quote
Super User webertime Posted February 1, 2015 Super User Posted February 1, 2015 Doc Irv has a 1.75" craw. $4 for 24 and any color you want. Quote
scupbaron Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Missle drop craw. I just picked up a bag ..look like they'll catch well dropshot just looking at them ..3" and slender, could pinch off and make even smaller for panfish, trout . .... 2"& 3" twin tail grubs good craw imitation too ..done well with them on bass fished slow just after ice disappears. fish on dropshot or small jighead Quote
Blues19 Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I really like the Zoom lil critter craw with a small hook on the T rig. 1 Quote

Super User Fishes in trees Posted February 1, 2015 Super User Posted February 1, 2015 Lucky Strike used to make some mini-sized Guido Bugs. I've got some. I don't know where I acquired them. The craw trailer that Jewel Baits makes for the Eakins jig is pretty small. Quote
corn-on-the-rob Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Berkley havoc slop craw, just cut off the last 1/2 inch or more. I use them and they are awesome, small profile, small claws. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 2, 2015 Global Moderator Posted February 2, 2015 Baby Rage Craws or YUM Craw Papis, both killer smallmouth baits on a shakyhead. Quote
Super User ChrisD46 Posted February 2, 2015 Super User Posted February 2, 2015 I really like the Zoom lil critter craw with a small hook on the T rig. ^^This^^ ... Also great on a small 1/8th ~ 3/16th oz. jig working it slow on the bottom . Quote
Robertqq Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 Hello all, As always, thanks for the information. Great Forum. Hate to appear ignorant, but will blame it on my age now. What is, please, "T rigged" ? What is: "Rage Rigged" ? Thanks, Bob Quote
