JohnMac Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 I've been doing a lot of fishing over the last year with smaller cranks and they have produced quite the numbers of fish however most of the fish ive caught have been under 2 pounds. I'm now looking for larger SHALLOW cranks if you guys have suggestions for cranks that are shallow and over 2 3/4" it would be appreciated also included top producing colors. Quote
TrippyJai Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 My biggest crankbait other than a DD22 or 7F Fat Free Shad is the Bomber Balsa B which dives to 3'. It's 2.5", but it's a really big shallow bait. Check it out. I've caught a few fish on it from the bank around 3 ish pounds. Not big, but for Canada, anything over 3 is pretty good, 5 lb can be a personal best. Quote

BassinBoy Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Mann's C4 elite. but change the hooks Remember, a crankbait won't always consistently catch you quality fish Quote
Super User retiredbosn Posted January 22, 2009 Super User Posted January 22, 2009 [ Remember, a crankbait won't always consistently catch you quality fish What lure consistently catches quality bass??? I want some of those Quote
Stingray23 Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Mann's C4 elite. Agree. I also like the Strike King. http://www.***.com/descpageHRDSTRIKE-SKPC.html http://www.***.com/descpageHRDSTRIKE-SKPMXS.html Quote
JohnMac Posted January 22, 2009 Author Posted January 22, 2009 how do u guys feel about the bandit maxx or the lucky craft rick clunn series? Quote
Super User MALTESE FALCON Posted January 22, 2009 Super User Posted January 22, 2009 The Rapala Shallow Shad Rap size 7 has put many quality fish in my livewell. The X-Rap Shad Shallow size 6 or 8, and DT Fat 03 are a couple more good baits. Falcon Quote
Primus Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 JMAC the Lucky Craft RC 1.5 & 2.5 are outstanding baits, Bass Pro usually has them on sale a couple of times a year for $ 9.99. I haven't tried the Bandit Maxx. Quote
Super User CWB Posted January 22, 2009 Super User Posted January 22, 2009 Mann's C4 elite. X2 Can't go wrong with Bagleys B3 either. Quote
TrippyJai Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 What colours do you guys like for the C4? I have the baby bass and aurora black, but haven't landed any fish on them yet. Btw, I changed all my elite bait hooks from the red ones to black nickel. Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Bagley Balsa B2 or B3 is hard to beat. And the DB3 deep diver will go down to at least 14 feet. Quote
