Strike King Rage Ned Craw – Dirt

The Strike King Rage Ned Craw is an updated version of the highly regarded Rage Craw, designed specifically for Ned rigging. This innovative fishing lure takes the effective qualities of its precursor and refines them for use in a finesse approach to bass fishing. Its compact profile makes it highly effective when the bite is tough, or when fishing in areas with smaller forage where a subtler presentation is crucial. Below is a rundown of its unique features:

• Perfectly sized for Ned rigging
• Ribbed body for increased water displacement
• Two high-action Rage Tail claws
• Compact and subtle presentation to fool wary bass
• Patented flange on the tail claws for maximum disturbance
• Ideal for finesse jig fishing with a blunted head for easy jig head attachment
• Excellent choice for targeting river smallmouth bass and other predators

With its lifelike texture and detail, combined with the patented Rage Tail technology, the bait excels in conditions where a more refined technique is necessary. Anglers will appreciate its durability and effectiveness in a variety of conditions, from clear to stained water. The “Dirt” color mimics natural crawfish, which makes it a particularly great choice when targeting river smallmouth bass that are hunting for crustaceans among the rocks and mud.
