Durable crab-scented bait strips for saltwater fishing without needing a cooler.
This Electric Chicken E-Z Crab is a pair of crab-scented bait strips, each about half an inch wide and a foot long. A mesh layer through the middle helps the bait stay on the hook through repeated casts. Cut a piece to size and put it on a bare hook, a jig head or as a trailer for surf, pier and inshore fishing.
