Title: The Icraw
Post by: Lamar on 06/11/17 16:14 UTC
  I just want to give a big shout out to Do-it's I craw. Just won some money on it today. This was the first time to really test it out and we did well on it. Great bait. Thanks Do-it.

  Thanks we just made a simple CC Green craw and dipped the claws in orange spike it and put it on a shaky head jig. The fish ate it up. Nothing else we used would work. I did catch our biggest fish on a jig with the i craw as a trailer.

Could you share just how you rigged the craw trailer and then presented it?

I just took a picture of the jig and craw I was using. They are both beat up a little but you can see how natural they look.

  Thanks DF. I like this time of year when I can flip a jig in tight areas. Here in Ohio our lakes are small yet we get a ton of boats on them. I bet there was 200 pontoon boats in the no wake area and another 100 water skiers and jet skis out there on the main lake. It just gets stupid crazy out there and the fish aren't going to just stay out in the middle of all that. So these fish will go dirt shallow right up against the bank in any heavy kind of brush they can find. The carp when they spawn will dig the banks out a bit so they have little pockets to hide in. I normally like a heavier jig like a 5/8 oz but when fishing this real heavy cover it blow through the weed guard to easy so I went to 1/4 oz to get hung up less. It worked for us.

Thanks for the pic. Great bait the orange claws can really be a trigger a lot of the time. That works well by me to.
