Tips to imitating AZ crayfish?

Featured Replies

I notice that the Lower Salt River has a healthy population because they end up in many of the eastern ponds in PHX metro. I notice that they aren't large (averaging 2.5" or so). Any good soft plastics and color recommendations? I'm tired of imitating Threadfin Shad all year long and want to mix things up. Mostly fish lakes 10 acres or less.

 

Thanks in advance for your response.

Ability to hold breath & Megastrike cologne might help

Dorado, granted I'm not familiar with the area you're talking about, you might check out a smallie beaver or a flappin hog

Scale down the size of the jig and trailer. When Uncle Josh made #32 small pork crawdad they worked good on Skinny Bear jigs. Today you may need to use Strike King Bitsy craw on a Skinny Bear Signature pro finesse jig.

Neat jigs! I like those Brown Purple orange jigs. This Crawdads have green pumpkin and light beige tints with rusty orange limbs and a  slightly light blue abdomen

Try a rage menace grub, gene larew salt craw, and a new one I'm picking up is the Yamamoto psycho dad. They also make some smaller craws.  

You could also get some Jj's magic or the dye markers at Walmart to enhance your craws even more.

Thanks! Never heard of the psycho dad. Sounds cool!

I still think this is probably the most effective way of imitating a craw fish.

Maybe t-rig a money craw,works for me.
