So I got this crankbait and it keeps wanting to pull off to the right when I retrieve it. Anything I can do to correct this?

    I'm on my iPhone right now or I would link the video, but google bassresource on YouTube. Glenn made a video on how to fix the problem.

    Basically you take a pair of needle nose pliers and bend the eyelet in the opposite direction until it tracks straight. Do just a little bit at a time.

    Edit: Found the video.

    A crankbait tuning tool (page 352 of the 2012 BPS Master catalog) is much easier to use than a pair of needle nose pliers.

    Should be an easy fix but I've owned a few cranks that just could not be tuned. Hopefully that isn't the case for yours.
