Reins Maxi AX Craw 4 inch – craw-style soft bait for predators
Price from 7.73 € View productsBig 4” craw bait for pike and perch – jig, Texas rig, Carolina rig
Reins Maxi AX Craw 4 inch is a bulky craw-style soft bait built for bottom-focused predator fishing around cover, vegetation and hard spots. Its large claws move on a slow retrieve and during the fall, creating a strong presence in the water.
Action
Wide claws and legs produce a steady pulse on the drop and on short hops. Maxi AX Craw keeps working when dragged slowly, making it effective in stained water and in deeper spots where you need a clear vibration signal.
Best use
The 4” size is a bigger meal for pike, trophy perch and (where available) black bass. It shines when fish feed on crayfish or large bottom prey and when you want to target better-quality bites.
Techniques
Jig / Cheburashka: short lifts and controlled bottom fall.
Texas rig: cover-friendly presentation with pauses and small shakes.
Carolina rig: slow dragging and stop-and-go over hard bottom.
Jig trailer: adds bulk and claw movement to skirted jigs.
Rigging tips
For heavy cover, match an offset hook to the body thickness and keep the point weedless. On open bottom, a classic jig head or a cheburashka set...
