WHAT IS IT?
CrushCity Bronco Bug
WHAT SETS IT APART?
In the realm of soft plastics, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to show fish a profile or action they’ve never seen. Rapala hits the mark with the new CrushCity Bronco Bug, a craw style bait built for maximum performance and versatility. With hinged legs oriented vertically, this bait is designed for a realistic undulating action that mimics fleeing prey. Also, when the bait hits bottom, the legs come forward, wiggle near the head and then recoil into the resting position. Measuring 4 inches, the Bronco Bug comes in 15 custom colors to match crawfish in a wide range of fisheries. Also, the exclusive Smart Injection Technology allows precise placement of color, flake, salt, and scent to create unique combinations.
HOW DO I USE IT?
A natural for Texas rigging, the Bronco Bug’s three sets of slender appendages face upward to create greater water displacement. When resting, these thin extrusions wiggle with the slightest current or rod motion — an added appeal when soaking that flipping rig. Hold the Bronco Bug by the head, and you’ll see that the paddle like arms tuck in tightly. This slender profile will penetrate cover smoothly for flipping/punching heavy stuff. Also, that undulating action will look good in a lightly weighted swimming presentation or a Carolina rig. However you use the Bronco Bug, the soft ribbed hook slots on both sides maximize bait life, while protecting the hook point.

ANGLER’S INSIGHT:
A go-to bait dependably delivers when you must get the job done. Finishing a limit, nabbing that kicker that pushes you over the cutline, delivering the day-maker for a kid or a novice angler — you need a bait that delivers. Taking that premise a step farther, the best go-to is more than a one-trick pony; serving multiple tasks with convincing appeal defines such production power. From early looks, it appears that the CrushCity Bronco Bug has the tools to earn go-to status.
