Ok it's Christmas time and I'm going to give up one of my tricks with the iCraw. On the left side of the picture you'll see my components I use. I make my iCraw ( it can be how ever you like. This is just what I'm making now ) Then I make a ned head with a double keeper instead of a hook. You need to modify the mold just a little but easy to do and you can still make Neds with it. A 1/0 weedless circle hook and an O ring like you would use on a senko. Then I put it together like the picture on the right. I remove the bottom legs so I can slide the O ring up higher. I use a spinning rod and eight pound test line. The deal with this is when you cast it out and it sinks to the bottom is it stands upright. When you twitch it then it bends in half and then stands upright again when it falls. It looks so natural in the water and bass especially smallmouth go nuts for this.
Hope all of you catch more fish on this. Lamar

What a great idea. I like the concept of using the Ned head as a weight. Thanks for sharing.
