Where to get small soft-plastic craws?

Well, way too much copying of designs for my liking

Yeah. Strike King is maybe the biggest, shall I say Culprit, of just copying in soft plastics. Berkley is just as bad but actually probably WORSE in their hardbait lineup. Basically anything they've come out with the last 5 years is an exact replica of another makers design. It kinda bothers me and I haven't bought any of them even though they are cheaper and people seem to do well on them.

Missile Baits drop craw might work. Would have to cut it down, but it's slim with small claws and no unnecessary legs or flappy bits. Reasonable price, too.

There certainly has been a "Ned" craze lately when it comes to small plastics.  Funny how the whole thing has mushroomed.

I have tried a few of the small baits and still can't find anything that will out fish the cut Zinker.

I have used them as drop shot baits and they will catch fish.  They float too, so I agree might make a good little jig trailer.

Rarely will. There's a window for the Finesse Shadz, and for something curly... like a cut down Tiny Brush Hog. But nothing else works day in and day out like that stupid cut stick.

They split shot pretty well, too.

This is probably a little big for a tiny jig, but given the name....

Forgot about this one, I have caught bass on it fishing it on a shroom head, not quite a craw, but sort of.  And it is made of an Elaztech type plastic.

My favorite micro sized craws for small jigs or just fished on a jighead

I like a lot of the Missile Baits
