Innovative Firetail Technology
The Berkley Money Badger Firetail features a specially designed tail that produces a unique kicking action as the lure is retrieved. This Firetail technology creates additional movement and vibration that closely mimics a live crawfish trying to escape. The added action helps the lure stand out from standard crankbaits and often triggers strikes from bass that have seen many traditional lures. This makes the Money Badger Firetail especially effective when fishing around rocks, laydowns, and grass edges where crawfish naturally live and hide.
Realistic Green Craw Color Pattern
The Green Craw color is one of the most productive and realistic finishes in the Money Badger series. This detailed pattern features natural green and brown tones with authentic crawfish markings that closely imitate common crawfish species. The Green Craw color performs exceptionally well in clear to moderately stained water and is particularly effective during the spring crawfish spawn and fall feeding periods when bass are heavily targeting crawfish.
