ok... so i read the article about crankin' in the gnarly stuff...

and the Timber Tiger seemed to do quite well...

anyone use these?

any luck?

thanks...

I have several of a very similarly designed bait by Luhr Jensen called a 'Brush Baby'. Love them for cranking wood cover.

They don't get hung up. Even in Christmas trees. I have Timber Tigers and Brush Baby's and they are fish catching machines.

I am a big fan of Timber Tigers and I have a lot of them in different sizes. I mostly fish the DC8 & DC16. I routinely fish the DC8 on 17 or 20 lb test. On the DC 16 I'll drop down to 14. I have no qualms throwing them into any kind of woody cover. Very occasionally they will get stuck but compared to any other crank, they come through woody cover great.

I experiment quite a bit trying to find the best rod to throw them on. This year I'm mostly using a 7'4" BPS Extreme, med action with a fast tip.

HUGE fan of them. That's all I'm going to say without a signed affidavit requiring more.

I read the same article and looked them up on tackle warehouse and found them on ebay and ordered a DC2.DC3 and a DC4 to try out once they arrive.

I used both the Timber Tiger and the Brush Baby with a lot of success for years. Both come through heavy wood cover as well or better than any crankbait I've ever used.

thanks for the feedback..

i picked a few up on ebay as well... DC2,3,5 and 8

got a tournament on the river here in a few weeks and there are a lot of laydowns and branches etc.. i'll see how they do.

Good Luck with the tournament when it comes around also
