It takes a lot for me to introduce a new bait into my pitching and flipping lineup. I’m a creature of habit and when I find one that works for me, I stick with it in an attempt to boost my confidence and keep my selection process simple.

Due to my location, I’m able to flip and pitch shallow cover all year long which allows me to test countless new shapes and colors. Very few make the cut for a very simple reason: They’re nothing new. Just the same shapes with a different logo, essentially. It’s hard to reinvent the wheel.

The BioSpawn VileCraw, however, has some interesting features that anglers should know about. I’ve been tinkering with it for a few months and it’s making quite the impression on me.
