Discover the game-changing Livingston Lures Critter – the new 2026 downsized predator lure designed by renowned musky and pike expert Steven Paul. Don't let its compact 3.5-inch profile fool you: this bait is engineered to put trophy-class musky and pike in the net year-round, even in pressured waters.

Powered by Livingston’s exclusive E.B.S. (Electronic Baitfish Sound) Technology, the Critter doesn't just look alive—it sounds alive, emitting natural panicked baitfish sounds to attract predators from afar and trigger strikes when other lures fail.

Key features that make the Critter a must-have:
- Compact 3.5" body, 2.7 oz – Heavily weighted for fast sinking (drops at ~2 feet per second) with two small rear Colorado blades that spin on the fall for erratic injured-baitfish action
- Extreme versatility: Burn it on straight retrieves across shallow flats, rip through open water, jig vertically on forward-facing sonar, or work with pops, rips, pauses, jigging, and drop-shot-style presentations
- Built tough for relentless use and multiple strikes
- Ideal for finicky or high-pressure fish – excels on musky, pike, and even perch in various conditions

Watch this in-depth review and action footage showcasing the Critter's dynamic movement, blade spin, thumping fall, and how Steven Paul's design delivers results in real-world scenarios. Whether you're targeting Southern musky in Tennessee or trophy pike elsewhere, this compact assassin changes the game.
