crayfish

I think it's time for some video. I'd love to see this critter in action.

My first thought is that thing bait is going to get hammered, which a good thing but in the process lose some limbs. How do you have those arms connected again? Great work John. The baby lobster has a friend now.

Interesting hook set-up.

the little legs are made from wire insulation. they are flexible . i drilled holes horizontally through the belly and threaded the leg through and epoxied them in. they may get bent up but are not going to come out. they can be bent back into shape again. the front arms have a stainless steel skeleton like the bone in your arm, again inserted through the body of the bait. i made the hooks detachable to minimize stress on the bait ( hopefully ) .

i'll see if i can get some video of it in action. it'll be interesting just figuring out how to operate the camera and the lure at the same time.

You are truly an inspiration John! That thing is as cutting edge as it gets!

Just Amazing!!!

So how many hours do you have in this one?

Some big bass is in for a rude awakening. Once again, truly amazing.

Exceptional work John, mould, colour and finish, a big Murray Cod would love one of these.pete

With each bait you make I keep thinking it can't get any better than this, but they do.

Wow..................that is very realistic looking "dad".

RM

if that thing functions as well as it looks.... you have yourself a real money maker. ill take 5! simply amazing!

Thats one crazy cool bait.

Don't know how I missed seeing this one. Babababababa baaad bad to the bone!

That is really nice. It ought to get clobbered.
