About this piece
The Deps NZ Crawler is a big topwater crawler bait with a flat wide body, designed to provoke large bass with its aggressive surface disturbance. A stainless steel oversized wing generates a powerful, torquey crawling action that rolls the wide body, pushing water and churning the surface. This bait excels at triggering reaction strikes from wary big bass.
