    Jackhammer Fire Craw trailer

    What color trailer do you all use for this color bait?
    Would the houdini razor shadz be the bet or do you all have any suggestions for other brands / colors?

    Yamamoto has a Zako that matches it perfectly.

    Thanks for the tips guys. I was thinking the green pumpkin razor as well. I looked at the zako is Watrmln Copper Org Red Laminate the color?

    how does this bait hold up compared to the razor that seems to last forever?

    I made a skirt the same color to fish on another brand vibrating jig. I almost always fish a split tail trailer on my vibrating jigs. I used a black split tail in lightly stained to clear water and a red split tail trailer (Lunker City is the only company that makes a red one, I think) in lightly stained to clear water.

    I have a custom one similar to the Fire craw and I put on the Zako in watermelon copper orange red laminate and it looks killer.

    If you want a bigger profile, there is a Pit Boss called Skeets Hot craw that is a dark red top with a bright red underbelly.

    Strike King make the Menace in Delta Red and Big Bite makes their new Swimon trailer in a color they call Apocalypse and Green Pumpkin Apocalypse - all these look great on Fire Craw - even if it is homemade...
