Description

Building on the success of the Tantrum Craw, the lineup now expands with a bigger, bulkier 4.25-inch version designed to target big bass. It retains the same proven profile and action-packed appendages, allowing you to fish the lightest weight possible while presenting a larger, more enticing profile. Its signature cupped legs and side appendages come alive with lifelike action whether you’re pitching, punching, dragging it on a Carolina rig, or fishing it as a jig trailer. The kicking action starts instantly on entry, even on lighter weights helping trigger aggressive strikes. A meaty head and body lock securely onto a 4/0 to 6/0 wide gap or flipping hook, making it the ideal choice when targeting bigger bass on heavier gear.
