Blacktail Deer Plateau lure

"Okay," Easy chirped, moving back toward the water and carefully wading in. If she moved too quickly, the crack bugs got scared and would swim away. Luckily, she'd learned how to enter the water without disturbing it too much. It'd taken a lot of practice and a long, long time, but now she was fairly adept at catching them - and eating them, too!

In the water, she slowly moved her forepaws around, feeling for another of the crack bugs. Eventually, her sensetive toes found something that felt right, and she dove in to snatch it out of the water with her teeth, tossing it to shore so that it wouldn't pinch her.

It landed in the dirt still flipping and flopping, but Easy pounced after it a moment later. "Gotchya!" she said, leaning down to tear off one of the snipping claws, and then rubbing the crack bug in the dirt until another claw fell off. Then, she nosed it toward Catori, tail wagging excitedly.

"Here you go!" she offered, taking a step back to present the woman with the gnarled, muddy thing.
