EZOKO Expert Insight / Pro Tip

For the best hookup-to-landing ratio, pair the Little Joe with a 36" to 72" fluorocarbon leader when musky trolling. It’ll give you the abrasion resistance needed to battle toothy predators while keeping your crankbait running true.

Musky don’t wait, and neither should you. Put the Little Joe 8" Crankbait in your spread and get ready for heart-pounding strikes this season.
