Re: Confidence Cranks
So far some of the best cranks I have used are the rattlin suspend jointed shad raps, and most normans. I think I will have to put my order in for some Carolina Chips before long and I will also give the bandits a try.
;D ;D Thanks for the info guys |

Re: Confidence Cranks
I saw the post about the modified jointed shad rap and thought it was a good idea. I would like to learn how to modify one to suspend at about 3-4 feet.

Re: Confidence Cranks
I would have to say mine would be the Rapala Count down in Sliver/Black and the Rat-L-Trap in Crome blue or Crome Black.

Re: Confidence Cranks
I like the Norman DD22 in the red craw pattern for deep and Norman Little N in the shad for medium depth and the Speed trap firetiger for the shallow depth.

Re: Confidence Cranks
I saw some cranks I have used before and some I haven't those I will give a try. Some that caught my eye were the DT rapala and the blue/chrome rattle trap. I also noticed some of you are like me, trying to improve your cranking confidence.
I have one crankbait that is my favorite confidence crankbait that I think everybody should look at getting but I forgot the website I will try to post it next time for people wanting to order. The bait is a Norman Baby N Mr. Green Jeans color (special color), runs 3-5 feet Cullin8s WOW great looking baits. Oklahomavsgeorgia welcome to the board ;D ;D Once again thanks for the info. |

Re: Confidence Cranks
I have really startedt o go back and pick up the balsa cranks again. I never really relied on crankbaits as a main staple in my arsenal but in the spring and fall the last few years I used them a lot.
My two favorite baits are the Awesome Tackle Thundershad 103 and Bagley's Honey B or Killr B-1. I'll throw a Trap from time to time as well. The Floating Trap has done well for me. |
