Flat Sided Cultiva Crankbait.

Featured Replies

Cultiva (owner) used to make a flat sided crankbait that had pretty large eyes.  Does anyone remember this bait?  Does anyone remember what it is called or have a picture of it?  

Thanks!  :)

Thanks T-rig but it's not that one. I bought it about five years ago and I think it was already our of production at that time. I saw one in an ebay store about a year ago but I didn't like the color. I went back a month later to buy it anyways and it was gone.

I just bought this one on ebay but if you are able to find another source for them I would apreciate it.

Imakatsu makes a Cranking Shad that looks pretty similar to that.  Check Ebay out and have a look... $18 apiece though...

I tried several cultiva baits becuase I like owner hooks so much.

I was disappointed in them.  They look good but I don't think I ever caught one bass on any.

This fish was caught by my little buddy with a Cultiva Rip'N Minnow 65.

I don't have pics like T-Rig, but I love the Tango Dancer by Cultiva, it is a topwater like the Sammy, but IMO, Better than the Sammy.  Easier to walk, better hooks (there's nothing better than owner hooks...), cooler colors/finish, and a better crafted bait.  When the topwater bite is on, I throw the TD before anything else.

Which size tango dancer do you use? 115 or 95?

I use the 115, I can never find the 95s on Ebay, or if I do, it's too late.

It is a big heavy lure and casts a mile.
