More Advantages of Fishing with a Berkley Powerbait Crabby

The Berkley Powerbait Crabby Lures offer several advantages that make them popular among anglers, especially those targeting estuary species:

✅ PowerBait Scent and Flavor: The lures are infused with Berkley's PowerBait formula, designed to attract fish and encourage them to hold on longer, increasing your chances of a successful hookset.

✅ Keeled Belly Design: The unique keeled belly helps the lure track straight during retrieval, even in currents, making it easier to control and present naturally.

✅ Versatility: The Crabby can be used in various ways, including casting and retrieving, jigging, or free-falling near structure, making it adaptable to different fishing conditions and techniques.

✅ Target Specific: Designed predominantly for estuary species, it effectively mimics the movement and appearance of crabs, which are a common prey item for many fish in esturine environments.

Considerations

Fish Love it, but It’s No Guarantee: While the Powerbait formula contained within the Crabby lure is a major draw, remember that no lure guarantees a catch every time. Success still depends on your skills and the conditions.

Soft Bait: It's a soft plastic lure, so expect some wear and tear, especially with toothy critters. But with proper care, it'll last for plenty of fishing trips.

Jig Head Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the following jig head hook recommendations:

  • 2 inch lure: 1/24oz (approximately 1.18 grams) #2 hook
  • 2.5 inch lure: 1/16oz (approximately 1.77 grams) #2 hook

Expert Insights

Expert Insight 1

I've been in the fishing trade for over two decades, running my tackle shop, and I've seen a lot of crab baits come and go, but let me tell you, the original Gulp Crabby? That soft bait was legendary! Especially with the bream fanatics in Sydney and Wollongong (my store is based just south). The new Powerbait model, while still a soft bait, is more durable than the old Gulp. It's a ripper of a plastic lure to fish around oyster leases, particularly on a run-out tide when the bream are actively feeding. Rig it on a light jighead, cast it up-current, and let it slowly drift down with the flow. The subtle action and enticing scent drive the bream wild.

Expert Insight 2

I'm excited to see the Powerbait crabby on our shelves! A cracker of a lure for bream around pontoons and pylons, especially when lightly weighted. I suggest casting the lures around these sorts of structures, letting the lure flutter down. It's also worth trying a slow roll retrieve, letting the crabby's natural action do all the work. The bream typically smash it when fished these ways.
