Description

The Backwater Crab 4.00" (19g) – Oyster White is a lifelike soft crab lure made for shallow flats, docks, and oyster beds where predatory fish feed on small crustaceans. Its realistic design and soft, flexible legs deliver natural movement that triggers powerful strikes from redfish, snook, tarpon, and sheepshead. The Oyster White color features a milky white translucent body with subtle black and silver speckles, closely mimicking crabs found around oyster beds, dock pilings, and sandy bottoms. This natural, low-visibility profile excels in clear to lightly stained water, making it especially effective for targeting pressured fish. Each lure is pre-rigged with a hidden double-hook system for weedless performance and a balanced 19g core weight for long casts and a controlled, natural sink rate. Fish it with slow twitches or let it drift naturally with the tide for maximum realism. Length: 3.15” (8 cm) Weight: 19 g (0.67 oz) Soft, durable plastic body Hidden double-hook rig for snag-free use Oyster White color with translucent milky white finish and speckled detail Ideal for redfish, snook, tarpon, and sheepshead Made for inshore and nearshore saltwater
