Yum Christie Craw 3.5" 8ct Watermelon
The Yum Christie Craw 3.5" soft plastic is a compact crawfish imitation designed for flipping, pitching, and jig rigging—the brainchild of Elite pro Jason Christie's input on what actually works in shallow cover. Unlike bulky craws that sit dead on the bottom, this bait features hyper-action claws engineered with thicker plastic at the ends to generate lifelike movement even on the drop. The profile and claw design let you match both crawfish and small baitfish patterns, giving you versatility in a single offering.
The 3.5" size hits that sweet spot for bass in brush, timber, and grass—big enough to trigger bites from quality fish, compact enough to skip under docks and punch through vegetation. The watermelon color is a proven confidence choice that performs across clear and moderately stained water. Eight baits per pack means you get a realistic supply for an active day of pitching without breaking the bank on every box you grab.
Whether you're working a jig head on a grass flat, rigging it Texas-style in heavy cover, or dropping it as a jig trailer on a football head, the Christie Craw's action in the water column does the heavy lifting. The claw movement isn't gimmick—it's functional mimicry that translates to bites in real fishing conditions. If your go-to presentation relies on compact baits that move on their own, this one deserves a spot in your tackle box.
