Keep crankin Steve, lol. Seriously, cranks are one of my favorite baits to use too, and I wouldn't venture out without at least a few. Which crankbaits are ya using anyways? Just curious.

Welcome to the bitter sweet world of crankin!! I love them, there are one of my go to baits.... but I do loose alittle more fish on them and loose a crank now and again, but I'm learning.

stevomac59 · 06-08-08, 09:11 PM

Rapalas adn strike kings... any suggestions?

fishin' fool · 06-08-08, 09:54 PM

I use alot of differen cranks. Bandit, bomber, a few rapala, bagley, norman. All depends on what applications im looking for.

i throw them all the time. my prefured baits are bandits,normans,speed traps,and lucky craft even though i own nearly every kind.. one of those is always tied on.. speed traps and bandits catch nearly all of the shallow water bass i get.. the norman and lucky craft take care of the deep stuff..

I love crankbaits too. Probably what we catch the majority of our fish on. Bandit and rapalas are our favorites.

I can't even tell you the last time I threw a crankbait. I have a tackle box full of them, maybe I should replace the hooks and get them wet.

hoytguy · 06-10-08, 04:19 PM

we use alot of cranks around here mostly bombers and bandints i love em' lately ive been catching quite a few bass on a #3 meps with a white skirt

Wishing2BFishing · 06-10-08, 04:30 PM

I go through phases. Sometimes I am big on cranks, other times plastics, and lately I have been loving the spinnerbaits. In fact, I am thinkin' of gettin myself a rod specifically for throwin' them.

hoytguy · 06-10-08, 04:34 PM

Im kinda the same way but ive never really got into the plastics. ive thrown tehm a few times and never really had much luck so never got into them very heavy

Wishing2BFishing · 06-10-08, 04:43 PM

hoytguy, give it time . . . sooner or later, you will like the plastics (and catch many fish on them too).
