I suppose you could make a jointed hard swimbait with the rear joint being the claws and moving independently from the body.

Re: Crawfish crank idea,maybe.

I love the rattlesnake ! and the bomber. I tried the river2sea alot in the ocean bays without much luck. You guys gave me an idea for a crab bait made from a spoon drilled in the side of the center with a hook on the other side of the center to swim like a fouled spoon. ... Ill let you know , thanks
