Sea NaCl Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Hey Guys, I was wondering what your personal favorite square bills are. Mine is the Storm Arashi Square 3 in Rusty Craw and Bluegill. The SK KVD Square bills are a really close second. So, what's your personal favorite? (Sorry that the photo is sideways) 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted May 4, 2015 Super User Posted May 4, 2015 6th Sense Crush Flat 75X Squarebill Crankbait ~ Just a fantastic bait. A-Jay 2 Quote
Super User Cgolf Posted May 4, 2015 Super User Posted May 4, 2015 Depends on conditions, XCal 200 for more active fish and a Bandit 100 for tough bite fish. Have to say the Bill Lewis echo had a good showing yesterday, but it had 1 trait I didn't like, it spun out on the retrieve once in a while. It may just need a slight tune, we shall see, but it caught fish for sure. Quote
primetime Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 I really like the Speed Traps and Xcalibur series from 100-300. Good hooks, colors, and price..I would say I like almost every square bill on the market as long as it has some chartreuse in it and the bill does not break off easy....Wakes are my thing more than Square bills-Footloose,Mann's, DT Fat, Yo-zuri, KVD, BPS EGG are all very good imo.

Jon G Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 x2 on the 6th Sense Crush 75x I used it last year and it has become my favorite squarebill by a longshot. My favorite color is Gizzard Shad. My only problem with the baits are the stock hooks are not very good. 1 Quote
THE BASS WHISPERER Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Man i just started using the storm, and I've caught more fish on it than any other crank bait . I hate the 8.99 price tag but love the lure. another favorite is the h2o academy crank (red). the one thing I've noticed about both is that it has a really tight wobble. i just bout a 16.99 ( noise included lure ( sounds like shad) big wobble no fish . i forget the name of it.

THE BASS WHISPERER Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 btw the crank bait that made the SHAD noise was a livingstong. I'm hoping it will be a winner for me at 16.99 !! Quote
Manigotapee Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Dave's Custom Baits. Black Market Balsa. I like the Large size, but fish the mediums in crystal clear water. These are the best baits I've found, not just because of their "hunting" action, but they come over/under/through/around wood better than anything else I've seen. Quote

Those are really nice but pricey, even for me. Quote
C0lt Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Im a big fan of the rapala dt line. especially the dt flat side line Quote
JeziHogg Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Use to be 1.5 kvds but I'd break like three a trip. I've switched to arashis and never looked back. Quote
CRANKENSTIEN Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Not sure I have met a square bill I didn't like. Cranky m is very good and under rated. Sk is probably the best Line Quote
CRANKENSTIEN Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Use to be 1.5 kvds but I'd break like three a trip. I've switched to arashis and never looked back. Really what are you doing with them. I haven't used Arashi they seem nice but a wouldn't guess them to be more solid made Quote
JeziHogg Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 I kept breaking the bill on the 1.5's. The circuit board bills on the Arashi's are much more durable. Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted May 4, 2015 Super User Posted May 4, 2015 I use the Bomber Square A and KVD 1.5 more than any others. Don't overlook the Excaliburs, and also the Norman Mad N's and Fat Boys. Quote
Primus Posted May 5, 2015 Posted May 5, 2015 Old school for me, the Lucky Craft RC line , Strike King is my second favorite and also runs a little deeper. 1 Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 Lucky Craft RC 1.5s, 2.0s and 2.5s. The ITO followup version is pretty awesome too. 1 Quote
