Can you tell me how to set up a Crawler Harness and when I should use it?
It’s not that difficult to tie your own crawler harness, all you need are the steps and a little know how. Plus lots of practice tying that hook.
To start you’ll need the following items for your crawler harness:
12 to 30-lb. monofilament line
A long shank or live bait hook
Hold the bait hook in one of your hands with the eyelet pointing towards your other hand. Hold the end of the fishing line in your other hand. Slide the fishing line in to the the eyelet hole until it extends just a little bit past the bottom of the hook. Hold the line firmly against the hook.
Begin wrapping the other end of the line around the hook, starting from the point at the eyelet about six to eight times. Then pull the end of the line back through the eyelet. Voila! You have a tied a crawler harness.
From here you can add all kinds of accoutraments to your harness to make it look much tastier to fish. An easy addition is a series of six beads slide onto the end of the fishing line followed by a clevis and a spinner blade. The fish won’t be able to resist this handmade harness.
Of course, it can still be difficult to figure out the instructions for tying a harness. If you need further aid you’ll be able to find much more concise instructions with lots of great illustrations to make tying a crawler harness easy at www.walleyesinc.com
