Quick take
A 3-inch soft plastic craw with moving pinchers and legs that releases PowerBait scent to keep fish holding the bait longer.
Berkley's 3-inch Blue Craw is a crawfish imitation with pinching claws and legs that keep moving on the fall, during the retrieve and through a pause. Its body can be cut at the third leg to fit a skirted jig, and the bait is commonly rigged Texas style, Carolina style or as a trailer on a finesse jig. The PowerBait scent and flavor are built into the plastic, so it suits anglers who want a compact craw for bass.
