In this episode I am out for an evening of wade fishing at one of my local rivers. The water is a little fast and stained so I decide to tie on one of my most trusted river lures: the Rebel Wee Crawfish crankbait.
The session didn’t start off great, with camera issues causing some of the first few catches to not get recorded. I make a color swap and find an ideal location for working the crankbait. Come along as I hook into a nice smallmouth bass and stick around for some analysis and discussion about how to use this lure and why it should be a part of your tackle assortment if you are fishing in river environments, or really any time you want to mimic a fleeing crawfish.
“Exploration is the most natural thing you can do.”

Nice fishing while wading the river, one of my favorite ways to fish too. Congrats on that PB smallie, gotta try that Rebel Wee Crawfish crankbait 🙌🎣
Nice fish!
That was a bruiser! Way to go! On the classic Rebel craw using light BFS, excellent video my fellow angler ffriend.
Nice crank bait! Awesome river creek to fish out of 🐟🐟
Congratulations on your pb smallie. Way more exciting on the bfs tackle.
Congrats on the PB with the classic crank. I could hear the joy and excitement shift as you realized it could be that PB. I’m obsessive about bringing a tape or scale, but I also note some measurements based on my rod to unofficially measure fish quickly. I’ll fully bust out the tape and scale for those PB busters and trophy fish.
