Jointed Claw 178F Evergreen Special Edition

The original S-shaped swimbait

With the Jointed Claw 178F Evergreen Special Edition, Gan Craft presents the legendary S-shaped swimbait in an exclusive colour series, developed by Toshifumi Kikumoto.

In contrast to conventional hardbaits, where the diving lip creates the water resistance and thus running movements such as wobbling or rolling, the Jointed Claw 178F gets by entirely without a diving lip. Instead it develops its unique S-shaped swimming movement already on a simple retrieve – a lure action that set new standards on its introduction and is still the model for numerous glidebaits today.

This unmistakable S-action creates an enormous trigger for predators. It makes the lure perceptible even from a great distance and tempts even cautious or experienced fish to attack.

Another decisive advantage: the natural movement appeals to the predators’ hunting instinct so intensely that even fish that initially missed the lure or only followed it often attack again. The Jointed Claw 178F is perceived by predators as real prey – a decisive factor in its exceptional catch success.

The Evergreen Special Edition combines the proven performance of the Jointed Claw with an exclusive colour design by Toshifumi Kikumoto and is thus an excellent choice for demanding predator anglers.

#EG01 Big Bite Chart Flash

Exceptional visibility for enhanced operational precision. This highly effective colour allows you to instantly grasp the lure’s position and movement, enabling precise rod and reel work to maximise the flashing plate’s effectiveness.

#EG02 Kikumoto Lotus Blue Flash

This lure features a natural colour scheme that imitates the Japanese dace, a prey species for large bass, while the vibrant chartreuse on the head enhances visibility, making it easy to pinpoint the target area. It is truly a big bass colour.

#EG03 ORION Black

A special matte-finish colour that embodies the world of Combat Stick Orion. The strong black and white contrast creates a striking presence underwater, making it the ultimate colour combination.

#EG04 ORION Black Flash

Inspired by the black-based monochrome Orion colour scheme, it incorporates a built-in silver reflective plate. This practical colour not only makes the silhouette stand out but also incorporates a flashing effect.
