The Craw Jig is a durable, realistic crayfish imitation designed to fool creek and river smallmouth bass. Built on a strong streamer hook with brass dumbbell eyes for weight, this pattern combines rabbit strip claws, mallard flanks, and rubber legs to deliver irresistible jigging action.


With a segmented dubbed body and marbled head finish for durability, the Craw Jig excels when bounced along rocky bottoms where smallmouth hunt. Perfect for aggressive bass in shallow creeks or deeper river pools, this is a confidence pattern every warmwater angler should carry.
