    I hear it's available now. What say you Mark? Any great field testing results to share?

    I bet they'll work. So many craws out there it is hard to get excited by yet another.

    They are selling now. Pretty cool bait but I realize my comments might seem biased. We went through a ton of testing on them over the past couple of years. I got my first prototypes in spring of 2020. We wanted to get them right. The durability of the body was a big priority. Pretty happy with the finished product. They are super versatile. They will fish like a football jig and the claws hold air so you get a defensive type posture.

    18 colors at $9.99ea

    So far grass craw, natural pro blue and Numa ebi are my favorite colors.

    It's internally rigged and weighted.

    What did you think of the Fine Art Shiraou color? It's stunning in person.

    No doubt about it. Based on his review of the Sleeper Gill I added 15 of them to my inventory. Now this. . .

    Mark should have a YouTube MB review channel

    Looks kinda like the Yabbie from river to sea. In pink it was one of my favorite smallmouth bed fishing baits.

    They were tested in Canada and up north as well. The material is a bit different from plastisol.

    Reminds me of a yum craw bug. I have been using those on a owner screw lock shakie head for years and years.
