Add Scent/Taste: Some soft plastics have scent/taste or it can be added as a dip.
Understanding Craw Soft Plastics
Common Sizes: Common sizes are from 2 to 5 inch with the larger sizes more common in low lure visibility scenarios.
Distinguishing Features: Craw soft plastics feature two large craws, to which they get it name, plus they often have smaller appendages on the body.
Enabling Lure Action: Craw soft plastic generally enables lures to vibrate as they swim or descend.
Vibration: The two large craws will create action that vibrates and is one of the major differentiators between craws.
Large Pincers: The craws with the larger pincers will have the most drag creating a larger vibration some suggest best for low lure visibility scenarios.
Fish Fast: Small pincers have less vibration allowing for faster retrieves.
Pincer Dip: Some suggest dipping the pincers in some colorful and potentially scented liquid to enhance the craw’s visibility.
