CV64SK / CV76SK (sinking) models

The following information and instructions are provided to offer anglers a better understanding of how to effectively use the lure as a tool, enhance performance and increase levels of success.

Lure vs. TARGET
The LIVETARGET® Craw (trap) is much more than a typical lure; it is a ‘target’. Predatory gamefish hunt with a plan. They force Crawfish from the security of cover and expose them to the dangers of the open water. When the prey presents itself and becomes isolated, it is no longer a baitfish, it becomes a TARGET.

Introduction
•   Koppers Fishing has combined the popular ‘trap/lipless rattle’ crankbait with an accurate profile and the anatomical details of a fleeing Crawfish.


•   The LIVETARGET® Craw (trap) is designed to simulate a fleeing Crawfish with the same tight ‘wiggle’ swimming action, rattle and heavy vibration
    as found in nature.

Location
•   Crawfish live in almost all bodies of water (lakes, rivers, reservoirs and ponds) and hide in and around cover such as fallen trees, tree stumps,
    vegetation stock, weeds, grass, boulders, gravel flats, etc.

Instructions
When using the LIVETARGET® Craw (trap), anglers must consider depth, speed and deflection.
1.   Fasten the TARGET directly to the main fishing line or leader material using a ‘clinch’ or ‘loop’ knot. Do NOT use a terminal snap, as this may
      impede the swimming action.
2.   Cast the TARGET in and around heavy cover; it will sink.
3.   The casting travel path is as follows:


4.   Since the TARGET sinks, it can be utilized in a variety of depths:

5.   When working the mid to bottom ranges, apply a ‘pumping’ technique. As the bait falls, rip it up and allow it to fall back, generating a ‘yo-yo’ like
      travel path. Work this pattern along a rocky bottom or above grass and weed tips.
6.   Retrieve the TARGET with varying speeds. It can be retrieved as fast as the reel will turn or slow enough to activate a steady wiggle.
7.   An effective strategy is to softly deflect the TARGET off objects such as rocks or grass tips.


8.   The objective is to cast the TARGET with the intention to ‘bump’ it or ‘bang’ it off structure; adding pauses and twitches when the point of
      contact occurs.


9.   Present the TARGET parallel to contours and structure.

Anglers are encouraged to experiment with each of these situations to determine which variable will trigger a strike. In doing so, a ‘pattern’ of speed, depth and deflection will develop. Once the pattern is determined, it can be used successfully in similar conditions and locations.
