Petey style cranks

Featured Replies

Here's a little set of cranks patterned after the Petey. 3/8" thick flatsides that weigh approx 1/4oz without the hooks and rings. Hot mustard or yellow craw color pattern. A little foil Bitty B thrown in for good measure.

Lookin good man

Marty,

Those look great. BTW, how do you get the dimpled finish on the foil one?

Thanks guys

Island, I use a rachet handle that has a griper surface that makes that pattern.   Just roll it over the foil.

Nice work as usual, Marty.  The Petey's are one of my favorite to fish or build.

Great work, Marty!   One of my favorite bait designs in one of my favorite colors!  Very nice!

Nice, Love the foil bait !

Clue me into what a "Petey" is?

It is a flatsided crankbait that was designed by Pete Reynolds (called the Little Petey) I believe almost 20 years ago - - a very good design, as it spawned versions of the bait by nearly every custom crank maker since.

Thanks for the education.  I'm not a builder but enjoy looking at the products of those who do.
