CRANKA CRAB TREBLE HOOK, MODEL 65MM
The cranka crab 65mm is a unique, ‘world first' crab lure design built on more than 10 years of research, design and development.
The CRANKA Crab (Treble Hook Model 65 mm) weighs 9.5 grammes and is a unique hard/soft hybrid crab lure design.
This model measures 65mm across its soft legs and 24mm across its hard shell.
This lure WON the converted ‘Best New Hard Lure’ award at the Australian Fishing Tackle Association (AFTA) trade show on its debut market launch.
Since its market release, the CRANKA Crab has accumulated many angling tournament wins to its name.
These include a World Hobie Kayak Championship title, an Australian Bream Tournament (ABT) Championship, many event wins, and countless other victories.
This award-winning lure was originally designed to target fish from the Acanthopagrus genus, commonly referred to as 'bream' within Australia.
In addition to becoming the go-to lure for anglers targeting Australian bream, the CRANKA Crab has proven highly effective worldwide.
To date, it has proven itself on bonefish, permit, sheepshead, redfish, drum, tripletail, bass, speckled trout, snook, trevally, whiting, snapper, two-bar seabream and flathead.
The unique advantages of the Treble Hook Model CRANKA Crab lie in its ‘patent pending' floating claw and treble hook design.
The claws are made from highly resilient, buoyant foam material that is precision cut and handtied to premium treble hooks.
This creates realistic crab claws that float above the body when the lure is in water.
That raised claw position accurately mimics the natural claw-up stance of a real defensive crab.
With the claws and hooks raised off the bottom, the lure can crawl along the seabed in a snag-resistant manner.
It also looks exactly like a real crab crawling over the seabed.
Other features include realistic, tough and durable soft plastic legs and a solid base plate/belly weight.
That weighting helps the lure land upright and adds durability while it crawls over rubble, rocks and reefs.
A through-wire design keeps you securely connected directly to the fish.
It is also fitted with high-quality, razor-sharp and strong Japanese treble hooks.
The cranka crab 65mm is the perfect lure choice when you want a slightly larger crab profile or longer casts.
For anglers comparing sizes, the 65mm cranka crab delivers that larger profile while keeping the same realistic crab presentation.
Initially available in 5 amazingly realistic natural crab colours.
