Crankbait Was Hot Today!

Featured Replies

I went out early this morning and threw the crank around. I caught 12 bass with two of them being solid 3lbers (18") or so. Went back again this evening and only caught two, but one was this nice chunk. Don't know weight, maybe 4-5lbs (20"). She had a really messed up eye, you can kinda see it bulging in the pic. It was like three times the size of the good eye. Other than that the fish seemed healthy, was pretty fat. Sorry for the crappy pic but its all I got!! All fish caught on a Bandit 200 Pearl/chart back.

Nice fish Cliff! Looks like it has a pretty bad infection in it's right eye like you said. Hope that isn't the end of the big girl :(

Red, sounds like a very productive day. Are you still fishing deep like you mentioned in your last post?

Yes, deep for me anyway, out to about 10ft or so when cranking. A bit deeper when I start draggin a jig.

Caught a few more this morning on a crank. No takers again on the jig. This was the biggest, 19.5" and really skinny.

You should see my poor Bandit, it is all beat up, paint chipped off, one eye missing. It ain't pretty but it is still catching them!! :D

Red, it's safe to say you've got one of those "special" crankbaits, that all the pros talk about going through a whole batch of them to find. That'll be the one eyed Bandit, so you won't even have to mark it with a sharpie.
