The Clawdad was developed by Chuck Kraft in 1996. Chuck designed this crayfish pattern to emulate the action and profile of the Pig-N-Jig lure that Bass Anglers use. This fly has been producing Trophy Trout and Smallmouth bass for 3 decades. Chucks largest Brown trout was caught using a Clawdad while he was guiding in Chile. This fly pattern covers the deeper part of the water column.
