The Murray Juice 10/9
Posted: Fri Oct 10, 2025 9:06 am
Here is a picture of the bait that did most of the damage at Murray yesterday.
It's a Rapala Crush City Ned BLT on a 1/0 EWG hook. The weight is a Nako skirted 1/8 oz.
I like to focus on rocky areas with it, but it's lightweight, and extremely weedless. You can work it over and through grass and moss, and pitch it into the edge of tules without much fear of getting hung. I like how the bait stands up off the bottom, and the one in the picture is over 20 fish in, and still going strong. It's extremely durable.
The rig also lends itself well to small craw (chunk style) baits and even worms. All of which I have tried, and have produced well.
I hope some of you BFS guys find this useful, and let me know if you try it out, and what you think.
