Here's info on the Krave, direct from John at Llungen.
"The bait is 9 1/2 inches long and built like a brick house. The bait is lighter than the Krisco about 4 oz. It's not as wide through the back. Great twitch bait. The Krave can reach 4 to 6 feet casting and up to 14 trolling. Lot of success with the bait, it has a different movement due to the drop belly profile and the fact that the rear hook, like the Krisco, is set below the bait not at the tail end."

I use more straight crank baits than jointed, so I'm personally really looking forward to this one. The video of the bait in action looks great. Here's a picture...

I also have a Krave and really like it for twitching since I'm not a troller, but from what I have seen, it will be an awesome trolling bait as well. And as Aaron said, it is definately built like a brick $@*& house!!!

Fantastic Todd! I've seen this video in it's entirety ... very cool (but I won't give away the ending!) I guess it's action trolled is fairly attractive!

Steve Thanks for posting the vid clip & Thanks to Todd Williamson form Lures In Action for some very cool footage..
Don’t know if it’s a good sign that it followed it or a bad one it didn’t eat it (maybe it’s the wrong color!!) it will be cool to see when it happens! By the way whenever I get a follow while trolling, I always do huge full boat fgr 9’s (Boat fgr 8’s cause tangles). Anglers can up their catches by 70% by doing the full boat fgr 9!!

When I do get a follow I do try to change things up to get the strike. But one must remember that when sped up a lipped bait goes deeper(off the screen), or slowed near stopping a bouyant bait goes out of the screen to the top. My goal is to get a strike dead center so we can count the teeth!! That being said 'Sit back and enjoy the show"

Great trolling bait. Will be casting it soon in Tennessee. Lots of nice fish, very solid construction, good hooker, holds up well to the rocks of the LOTWs and the fish like it.
