Gan Craft Jointed Claw Ratchet 184 Floating / 70 g

The High-Backed Jointed Claw

The Gan Craft Jointed Claw Ratchet 184 Floating is an extension of the legendary Gan Craft Jointed Claw range, introducing a new body shape combined with ROM technology. The body has been designed to be slightly higher-backed and more voluminous than the original. It retains the same seductive S-glide at slow retrieve speeds, yet the back frequently breaks the surface as it moves. This, combined with its broad profile, generates an exceptional amount of turbulence and water displacement that predators pick up on with ease. Rather than the usual 2-section, single-joint construction, this swimbait is built from 3 parts with 2 connections accordingly. The front joint is the classic metal-loop connection, while the rear uses a wide elastomer band. This ROM-Dumper connection gives the Gan Craft Jointed Claw Ratchet 184 Floating the ability to run very stably even at high retrieve speeds, transforming the swimbait into a lipless crankbait with a tight but intense action. You can also twitch and jerk the lure, at which point it shows the gliding characteristics of a glidebait. Combining different retrieve styles - slow cranking, sudden acceleration, twitching and pauses - adds unpredictability and variety. That versatility is what ultimately puts more fish on the bank. The Gan Craft Jointed Claw Ratchet 184 Floating was designed for largemouth bass fishing and is highly effective for pike as well. A versatile swimbait that deserves a place in any tackle box.

Razor-Sharp Owner Treble Hooks and Outstanding Detailing

The Gan Craft Jointed Claw Ratchet 184 Floating was designed by Takanori Hiraiwa, the owner of Gan Craft. As with the rest of the range, only the highest-quality materials and components have been used throughout. The lure is fitted with exceptionally sharp and strong Owner treble hooks that perform at every level. The detailing is equally impressive: a natural body shape with an intricately detailed head and a replaceable elastomer tail fin that appeals to angler and fish alike. This big bait is particularly well suited to clear water, where its naturalistic appearance and action come into their own. It fishes best on a high-gear-ratio baitcaster, which allows you to get the full potential out of this lure.
