About this lure

Made from Ultra durable and flexible TPE material the SMASH CRAB JNR is very tough and ultra-realistic. Once cast, it will flip onto its belly and the legs and claws will vibrate rapidly, to not only attract any fish’s attention but to simulate a real crab swimming and crawling. Slow roll, jig or just leave it in the rod holder. Fish will think this crab is real and too tasty to refuse.

Big Kev's Tips

How to work it

Cast the Smash Crab Jnr and allow it to sink naturally into the sub-surface zone (0-2 m).

Work it with a slow roll along the bottom, letting the flexible legs and claws vibrate to mimic a live crab moving through the water.

Alternatively, use short jigging lifts to trigger strikes, or simply hold it steady and let the lure's realistic action do the work.

The sinking action and durable TPE construction make it effective fished slowly or static - experiment to find what the fish prefer on the day.

Target snapper, kahawai, and trevally around structure, reefs, and sandy flats where crabs naturally occur. Pair with light to medium spin or baitcasting gear to feel the lure's subtle vibration and detect takes.
