Favorite Crank Bait

Featured Replies

I started using crankbaits more and i was wondering what you guys do best on also if you like yours silent or rattling

Lucky craft, Strike King, BPS XPS, Bomber.

Sound or not depends on the condition if they want one or the other, if they don't bite rattles they get silent next

Like mentioned above, it depends on the condition. I am a big fan of Strike King products. Not saying I won't use other names, but 80% of the crank baits I have are Strike King.

Strike King & Academy's H2O Xpress cranks.

Favorite for what?  Specifically?  I'm not being snarky, just seriously raising the point that different cranks are intended for different purposes.   So, what that means here is that my favorite for one situation probably isn't my favorite for some similar, but different in one or more aspects, situations.

 

Favorites for cranking wood?  . . . . cranking brush?   . . . . . rocks?    maximum depths?  See where I'm going here?  You need better perimeters to your question, provide that and you'll get better answers.

Rapala DT's, Bomber, Xcalibur. Rattles depend on the conditions that day.

I like pretty much the entire Strike King line.

X2 ~   SK  is currently putting out Very Good baits, Reasonably Priced and they flat out catch bass.

 

Additionally this 6th Sense Crush Flat 75X Crankbait has been a very pleasant surprise.

 

From Opening day right up to now the Baby Bluegill & Green Sunfish have been getting chewed up.

 

Quickly becoming a fan favorite.

Probably ethier the KVD 1.5 or H2O CRS, use silent more than rattles but it really depends.

Strike king baits from kvd 1.0 up to 6xd. Storm wiggle warts and arashi and recently found rapala in the dt6

Right now it is a Mann's 1 minus brought in right across the tops of the weeds under the surface.  Tomorrow it may be something else.

Strike Kings, bombers, normans, rapalas, and bandits make up the bulk of my cranks but there are other brands I use a lot.

About 80 percent of the 600 + cranks I own are Rapala.

depends on where you are fishing.  Duo Realis just came out with a new deep diving crank bait that's sick, but generally you can't go wrong with strike king

Bomber FAT A, model A. Redapplecraw, browncraw, greencraw, firecraw, baby bass orange bottom. Any presentation.

Norman thin N chartreuse killer, get jiggy with it topwater in the low light. Natural bait colors.

Stay away from the expensive stuff. Keep it simple and catch fish.
