A Crippled Herring is a sight-sound lure programmed to take
advantage of the strong, natural predator instinct common to all
gamefish. Every movement of any type of distressed baitfish
(stunned, struggling or dying) has been engineered into it. It can
be cast, jigged through ice or in open water or trolled. Many times
a Crippled Herring will arouse fish and provoke strikes when
conventional lures or natural bait will not. A prime example is a
dead calm, bright sunny day when fish seek bottom in deeper
water. Predator fish will frequently swim past healthy baitfish to
attack one in distress. An injured baitfish is an easy meal closely
imitated by a Crippled Herring on its downward fall. Under most
conditions, between 3 and 300 feet of water, an angler proficient
with a Crippled Herring will consistently catch more fish. Almost
all strikes will occur during or at the end of the downward fall. The
lift or forward movement of the lure attracts fish, but it is the
backward or downward fall created by SLACK LINE that triggers
strikes!
