Modified Crankbait idea

Post by Gblaze » Sat Nov 12, 2011 2:02 am

Any body ever toy with the idea of adding a jig skirt to a crank made to look like a craw? Seems it would add some realism and probably not effect the action too much.

Molix makes one right now and Snag Proof use to. They are both soft bodied crankbaits with the skirts coming off the back.
