B & N Talonz Little Claw Crank

The Hardwood Heavyweight: B&N Talonz Little Claw Crank

Crafted for durability and designed for aggression, the B&N Talonz Little Claw Crank is a premium wood bait that bridges the gap between a finesse twitch bait and a high-speed troller. Carved from solid 1/2" thick cherry, this lure offers the unique density and acoustic "thump" that only high-quality hardwood can provide, making it a standout choice for trophy Muskie and Pike.

Masterfully Built for Power

Every Little Claw Crank is built to take a beating. B&N Talonz focuses on heavy-duty construction to ensure your lure survives the strike and the fight:

• Cherry Wood Body: The 6.75" cherry wood construction provides natural buoyancy and a distinct vibration profile that plastic lures can't mimic.

• Reinforced Hardware: Built with rugged .072 screw eye construction to ensure your hardware stays put under extreme tension.

• Trophy Hooks: Comes stock with Eagle Claw 375 1/0 Treble Hooks, designed for maximum penetration and holding power.

Dual-Threat Action

Whether you prefer a rhythmic cadence or a steady pull, the Little Claw Crank delivers:

• Twitch/Jerk Bait Performance: Use its 6.75" profile to dart and dance in the strike zone. The cherry wood allows for a controlled rise that triggers following predators.

• High-Speed Trolling: Unlike many wood baits that "blow out," the Crank version features a thicker, reinforced lip specifically designed to track straight at speeds up to 4 mph.

• Targeting the Strike Zone: Capable of diving to 8 feet, making it the perfect tool for working over the tops of deep weed edges or along rocky drop-offs.

💡 Pro Tip: The "Speed-Stall" Strike

When trolling the Little Claw Crank at that 4 mph sweet spot, occasionally "pump" your rod forward and then quickly drop the tip back toward the lure. This causes the bait to stall and flutter for a split second before the thick lip catches the water and rips it back to speed. This sudden change in cadence is often the only thing a trailing Muskie needs to see to stop following and start biting.
