Best Squarebill Crankbait

Original SPRO LittleJohn.  Cell Mate color.  I hated crankbaits until I threw this one.  Tungsten coated rattles makes a different sound.  More of a thump.

Paranoia about LC discontinuing them caused me to hoard them.

I think most guys have fished more brands of squarebill's than I have but for me this past season it's been a mix of a few different baits. SK 1.5, Luck-E-Strike RC2 series 1 & 2, XCS100 and H2O CRS all produced very well.

Guess I'm the odd man out but I use the River2Sea Biggie both the Smalls and Poppa. But if I want to use a silent squarebill I throw the Luck-E-Strike Rick Clunn Silent Squarebill.

I'm one of those people :lol: . That said I don't use them as much as I used to as I tend to like fishing big baits . The last couple of years I have favored the Strike King 8.0 Magnum squarebill as it moves a lot of water and tends to attract bigger bites especially in low light conditions. It also excels as a night fishing bait. 

Excite Baits XB-1 is a quality squarebill. 

Plastic:

Strike King KVD 2.5

Xcalibur XCS200

 

Wood:

Bagley Balsa B2

I got a couple of Rapala bx brats from tackle warehouse and I did pretty well with them this fall, they seemed to come through cover pretty well to me.  Other than that a KVD 1.0/1.5 in sexy shad, chartuse sexy shad, or green/Black always seems to do well.

A lot of the local water I fish is shallow. My favorite in shallow water is a Mann’s 1 minus.
