When To Throw Chrome Crankbaits

Anytime the water isn't super clear and calm are the conditions I look for at the start of the day.

Its interesting to see how people from different areas will fish a lure differently. Ive seen a lot of people mentioning clear water bright day applications for chrome lures. In this situation, I normally turn to a finesse approach with more realistic, imitative finishes being the emphasis. Im going to experiment this year with a chrome LV-500 on clear sunny days when im trying to cover water.

Really clear water with bright sunny dats are about the only time I will toss a chrome lure. Being so reflective, they blend into the water column at whatever depth you're fishing.
