Appalachian Backstory Deep in the Appalachian valleys, old fishermen spoke of a strange little crawdad known as the Creek Crawler. Folks believed it could sense hidden water—long-lost mountain streams tucked beneath thickets and stone. Its tiny claws tapped the earth like a compass, guiding those patient enough to follow. Generations trusted the Creek Crawler as a quiet guide, leading them to untouched runs and fish that rarely saw a hook. A reminder that the hills still hold secrets, if you’re willing to slow down. Creek Life truth Big craws don’t live in little water. The Creek Crawler does. When subtle wins and realism matters, this one earns its keep. .cl-product-wrap{ max-width:900px; margin:0 auto; padding:14px 0; font-family:inherit; } .cl-hero{ padding:18px 18px 14px; border:1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.14); background:rgba(0,0,0,.35); backdrop-filter:blur(6px); border-radius:16px; box-shadow:0 10px 24px rgba(0,0,0,.25); } .cl-kicker{ display:inline-block; font-weight:700; letter-spacing:.12em; font-size:12px; padding:6px 10px; border-radius:999px; border:1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.18); background:rgba(0,0,0,.35); text-transform:uppercase; margin-bottom:10px; } .cl-title{ margin:0 0 6px; font-size:clamp(24px,3.2vw,34px); line-height:1.12; } .cl-sub{ margin:0; opacity:.92; font-size:16px; line-height:1.45; } .cl-grid{ display:grid; grid-template-columns:1fr; gap:14px; margin-top:14px; } @media(min-width:750px){ .cl-grid{grid-template-columns:1fr 1fr;} } .cl-card{ padding:16px 16px 14px; border:1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.14); background:rgba(0,0,0,.30); backdrop-filter:blur(6px); border-radius:16px; box-shadow:0 10px 24px rgba(0,0,0,.22); } .cl-card-wide{margin-top:14px;} .cl-card-title{ font-weight:800; font-size:15px; letter-spacing:.02em; margin-bottom:8px; } .cl-card p{ margin:0; line-height:1.5; opacity:.95; } .cl-pill-row{ display:flex; flex-wrap:wrap; gap:10px; margin-top:10px; } .cl-pill{ padding:8px 10px; border-radius:999px; border:1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.16); background:rgba(0,0,0,.28); font-size:14px; white-space:nowrap; } .cl-divider{ height:1px; margin:14px 0; background:rgba(255,255,255,.14); } .cl-two{ display:grid; grid-template-columns:1fr; gap:12px; } @media(min-width:750px){ .cl-two{grid-template-columns:1fr 1fr;} } .cl-mini{ padding:12px; border:1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.12); border-radius:14px; background:rgba(0,0,0,.22); } .cl-mini-title{ font-weight:800; font-size:13px; letter-spacing:.08em; text-transform:uppercase; margin-bottom:6px; opacity:.95; } .cl-mini-text{ font-size:14px; line-height:1.4; opacity:.95; } .cl-link{ color:inherit; text-decoration:underline; text-underline-offset:3px; } .cl-footer{ margin-top:14px; padding:16px; border-radius:16px; border:1px solid rgba(255,255,255,.14); background:linear-gradient(180deg,rgba(0,0,0,.34),rgba(0,0,0,.22)); backdrop-filter:blur(6px); box-shadow:0 10px 24px rgba(0,0,0,.20); } .cl-footer-title{ font-weight:900; letter-spacing:.06em; text-transform:uppercase; font-size:12px; margin-bottom:8px; opacity:.95; } .cl-footer-text{ margin:0; line-height:1.5; opacity:.95; }
