Favorite Square Bill?

Featured Replies

A majority of the time when I'm cranking I'll throw a rick clunn or a kvd 2.5 but I'd like to get some that are maybe a little more top notch! Thanks guys

What's wrong with the ones that your using? The rick clunns and kvds are both awesome baits if they're working why change them?

Because I always want to throw what has the best chance of catching me a linker! I also have a tendency to question lures and I'm doing that now lol,

Lol the Storm Arashi is getting some decent reviews that's one bait I've been meaning to get my hands on but I mainly throw the kvd's

The storms are good I use them I have the bluegill and rusty craw. They run a little deeper than the 1.5s and they have a wider wobbling action. I like them a lot only problem is I wish they offered some better colors that's why I love my KVD 1.5/2.5 they have a bunch of very good colors.

The Rive2Sea Biggie is pretty nice, and they have some awesome colors.

I'm not a big fan of SK but I do like the 1.5 and 2.5. The bluegill pattern caught me a ton of fish last year.

KVD 1.5 with rattles. Killer.

KVDs and RCs have always been good to me. The bass in my lake have moved super shallow in only 2ft in one cove so I've really been hitting them hard this week with shallow square bills. I'm testing the Sebile Bull crank tomorrow on them and I've also ordered a few spro baby fat johns which aren't technically full blown square bills but they do have a very similar functionality.

Lately (I'd say the last year) I've really been fishing, with great results, the Spro Fat John. I've got a few different colors but Cell Mate just gets bit so well that's my main color. Also really like the Lucky Craft RC 1.5's in Copper Green Shad. Although I will add that I picked up a couple of Rick's Luck E Strike cranks and they have been good too. KVD 1.5's are of course a very good bait.

 

I picked up a few Spro Baby Fat John's late last year but I haven't fished them much yet. They do "hunt" really well on a nice steady retrieve though.

KVD 1.5s usually get the call for me, but lately a Spro Little John has been my top producer.

Bandit neff said.... Pineapple color if you can find them. If you don't catch fish on it pm me and I'll buy the bait off ya. :)

I've got a bunch of LC 1.5's and love them, but anymore I find myself reaching for my H2O squarebills a majority of the time. They swim great, good color options, and cost less than $5 a bait. 

LC RC 1.5 all time favorite

Spro also makes some good crankbaits.

Good picks, I'll add a 100 Bandit, and the way too expensive combat crank.  Copper green shad should be illegal.

I'd like to help you out, OP, but I use either KVD or Bomber squarebills exclusively.  The Bombers work well for me.

#1 for me is the Norman Fat Boy (redear).

 

I am also a big fan of the Lucky Craft 2.5.

KVD 1.5  They offer way too many colors tho...  I down sized my color selections to shad, red and yellow.  I have been buying some custom painted ones for spring though.  I have tons of crawdads in my livewell that have the same color on them.  I had them in Alabama, Indiana and Kentucky this year already.  Green pumpkin with an orange bottom/craws.  I am going to try to get a airbrush and do it myself soon.
