Out of the 600+ cranks I own 80% of them are Rapala.

Which one is my favorite: Shad Rap in all it 's sizes and variations.

My two favorite cranks are norman DLN's and storm wiggle warts. Mainly because they are good producers where I live. I also like the Lucky Craft RC's.

I got this one in the mail today. Can't wait to throw it.

Rapala DT Series....Haven't tried any others.

Lipped:

Bandit 100 and 200 series

Rapala DT series 4 and 6.

These baits are just too good for the price.

What is it?  I can't make out the tag.  ??? Custome Lures.

I fish a lot of shallow cranks, 10ft  or less. I really like bandits. There are other's though, as long as it runs good and stright and you bump cover with it, I don't think you can really go wrong.

That particular crank is a Zoom Wobbler - - discontinued and very hard to find.  

Over the years, the one crank that has consistently put many fish in my live wells is the Rapala Shad Rap.

Recently I've been having good success with Norman's, Bomber, and Strike King.

I think BPS is dropping Bagley.  

You can't find anything other than Bagley cranks at BPS (ie. no Bagley Shakey Head jigs).  Now, all Bagley cranks are on clearance at BPS.  Bagley isn't even included in the Master Catalog for 2008.  Most Bagley cranks are $4.98 at BPS, with some as low as $2.99.  

I love crank baits own a bunch of them (modestly ), a few of my favs:

LC RC 1.5 and 2.5

LC CB 350

Megabass deep X 200t

Megabass flap slap- (weighted with storm lead) fishes like a rattle trap

luhr jensen speed trap 1/4oz

luhr jensen baby hotlips 1/4oz

Daiwa TD thin lip

Wiggle wart 3/8oz

After moving to the Carolinas I have found that I use crankbaits a whole lot more.  

My top 5 would have to be:

Zoom Hicky (shhhh)

DT6

Speed Trap

Bandit 200

LC 1.5

I have recently picked up some Spro Little John Crankbaits and I am very impressed with them.  Its nice to have a bait that acts like a custom flat side but casts very well in wind!

Micropterus -  Atleast at the BPS in Charlotte, most of the Bagleys that are on sale are the "Original" Series in odd colors or odd models.  The old standbys such as the B2's and DKB 2's are still regular price (unfortunately because the B2 is awesome in river systems)

How is the buoyancy?  

I fish with more plastics now than I use to but here are the ones I still use.

Cotten Cordell Big-O. I have got some 30+ years old and they still catch fish.

Storm Wiggle Wart

Storm Sub Wart

Mann's 1-Minus

Bandit Footloose

Stringjam - The Little John is more of a Slow Riser - almost neutral - That might be one of the differences in this bait and a Zoom.  The Zoom will rise a little faster than the LJ.  The Little John has a tungsten weight transfer system in it that probably keeps it down moreso than a wood bait.  Believe it or not though, the LJ is a pretty silent bait though.  The weight system doesn't allow much side to side movement of the tungsten (hince the silentness).  Very well constructed bait from what I've seen with my limited experience.  I will keep everyone posted on how it takes abuse!

Favorite   Big M  run great and he can make about anything I want. Yes I'm picky.

Factory baits,  I like rapala, bandit 300 and dd22

BUY THEM-  I have a fair number of Bagley's.  I caught my personal best on a Bagley Deep Killer Bee in a Tennessee shad pattern that was over 20 years old.  The only problem with the new Bagley's is on the lip there is a lead weight right under the line tie.  This thing will flip the crankbait around dutring the cast and "cross its legs" occasionally.  I just file it down or bite it off with side biters and start crankin.  I will get off of my Bagley soap box now, but man those things can catch some fish.    By the way they have great customer service if you call their main number also.  Here is a link to their site
