I will be shooting some promotional video with all of the described baits, but no actual fishing for me until the 29th of May. I am very anxious to troll the Twisted Krave and twitch the Krave Jr. I have in my possession some colors that should look and perform excellent on film. Hopefully these types of videos will sway shoppers into buyers!
My pre-season prediction is that there will be lots of fish caught on this line-up.

They are awesome baits - I actually prefer the Krave. I am just a fan of straight baits rather than jointed. I had a big multi species day on Lac Seul with a Prototype Krave last year.

I agree with Jerry. Great baits! Built like tanks and great action!!! I rip, twitch and pull the Krave, and the Krisco I normally use long pulls and pauses or a straight retrieve with a few pauses mixed in. You can't go wrong with both of these baits.

The only Jake in the picture was the 14 incher on the seat in the musky photo. I was sharpening the hooks on it when the rod went off. These were all Krave fish. Caught on a cisco color pattern. We actually caught 3 or 4 more big walleyes and half dozen 38+ inch pike that day.

The small Kraves look awesome. Picked up a handful at the MN show. Looking forward to tossing them soon! I may troll some as well if things get slow.

Jerry, was that your "chewed up" Cisco colored Krave that John was showing at his Musky Armor booth? Looked like it had taken quite a beating on the rocks (still in great shape just a little paint missing on the nose), and lots of teeth marks... that pike you have pictured is a beast!!

I picked up a couple of the custom colored Kraves and a Krave Jr. Can't wait to try. If I remember right, John recommend using wire leader on the Krave Jr's for better action. Picked up a Twisted Krisco last year, looks great in the water - no ski's yet, but booked up a fat 34" Pike trolling it.

No, I wouldn't give it back to them. Not sure who's bait that was. They are some sweet baits, and durable as hell!

The bait John was showing at the MN Muskie Expo was Doug Johnson's bait that he used up on LOTW.

I bought two kriscos at the Milwaukee show last year. Gave them quite a bit of time but no muskies yet. The krisco looks great in the water though. Didn't make it to any shows this year but plan on picking up a krave and a couple jrs.

Krisco's and or Krave's are on my list of lures to buy. Pretty good luck last year using the Krusher's. I even took some pike and a decent smallie!

I remember a post that was up before the lures actually hit the market. Several of us predicted great things for this line of lures before they ever got wet, and others wondered how we could like a lure before we ever fished it. We tried to explain, and the lures haven't failed. Great for trolling and casting. I didn't get a chance to thank the guys for sending some blanks my way along with a little gaunlet swat. I'll post pics of the finished products before they get chewed up like the store-boight variety. I love casting these around weeds and around rocks, but when you get both of them together, great things happen. That is also where the durability shines. No breaking lips when you're running into rocks. I thought that is why God put the rocks there anyway?
