norman crank baits
it seems all the ones i bought that run terrible were purchased from bass pro, im gonna try to buy some else were just to give it a shot, i have no idea what the problem is, I mean I am pretty anal about how my baits run but the shallow running normans i bought lately were garbage, I went out and bought lucky crafts before my last tournament I was so frustrated

norman crank baits
I have been buying a lot of norman flat N and the baby N and these baits have been running terrible out of the box, i mean its been ridiculous take em out of the box tie em on and they run right out of the water, does anyone have any tunning tips to help this, i mean i know how to tune a bait, but if you turn the normans to much they break its been terrible i like the baits but they have to start running well for me before i will ever use them again

keeping going on the crankbait train of thought...
lucky craft rc 2.5 and you said help you spend some money, but on the other note i will say that normans crankbaits have been running very poorly out of the box lately, i mean they have been running out of the water and takes time tunning them, IMO stay away from norman shallow running crank baits, on the other hand, manns baby-1 i agree with the others

gambler tournament
I fished a gambler tournament here in illinois there were 68 boats and I finished 2nd, I threw there crank baits there exspensive, but they run really well and still catching fish on them, the other bait i used was the gambler ace, its similar to the senko, my kicker came on that, but I was fishing a pre spawn pattern on a river system, my advice is just go fishing, get your five fish and have fun....the one thing about gambler tournament is there is no points involved so go out there and try to win it, but being your first tournament getting a limit would be a good confidence builder......good luck

gambler baits tournament
I fished a free gambler baits tournament yesterday on the Kankakee River and Des Plaines River in Wilmington,IL.... I'm from that area and fish the rivers quite a bit, there was 68 boats that turned out for the tournament, which is a lot for the area because not to many tournament anglers out there, I ended up finishing 2nd place 11.1 was the winner, my partner and I weighed 10.9, gambler did a good job running the tournament, got to talk to the owner of gambler for a while and the guy was a complete class act, will i buy gambler now?? well probably only there crank baits, but I know there are other tournaments they are hosting in other areas, i reccommend fishing them if you have a chance, i mean a free entry fee, 1000 for 1st, 500 for 2nd, plus a bunch of other prize with gambler bucks
