I'd mentioned awhile back, using the Swim Toad as a Twin Tail Grub-type of Craw Imitation.  Plenty folks use Twin Tailed Grubs to imitate a Craw, with widespread success (very popular, and popular for a reason).  A running Craw has a pretty wide profile, which the Toad accomodates much better than most Grubs.  The Toad also has the hook-slots on top AND bottom, which we all know is extremely favorable.  One unspoken aspect of the Toad...when it's bagged, the Claws/Feet lay naturally "in-line" with the wide proportion of the Body, so it has a better tendency to stay flat and retain more of its intended shape, and not twist in the bag like some bait designs.

DF Bro, You did a Fign Job here.  I dig the antennae!

This bait is the Speed Craw everyone's looking for.  It might not thump quite as hard, but does it need to rattle the bottom of the boat?

 Thanks BK, I love playing mad scientist with these baits. Spending extra time on a bait that could get torn up in one cast may be a waste, but hey, Its fun and if it gets us talking its worth it.
