SmokeRise1 Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 What is your favorite lipless crankbait/Rat-L-Trap style bait in 6-9 feet of water? Quote

Super User clayton86 Posted October 5, 2011 Super User Posted October 5, 2011 I'm a big fan of the voltage line up at dicks either in red craw color or chrome Quote
Dockhead Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 I've caught the majority of my lipless crankbait fish the last couple of years on Redeye Shads. This is probably due to the fact that I throw them more than any other lipless crank. Quote
bigbassctchr101 Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 I've caught most on the RES, because I fish it most often. I like the fall it has when given slack line. The rat-l-trap used to be my go too, and still is in the spring (red craw is hard to beat!). I switch up and throw a cordell spot when the bite seems to slack with the RES. None of the spots sounds a like, so sometimes it can be that subtle change that gets them bitin again. Quote
BassThumb Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 Xcalibur XRK-50 Lucky Craft D-7 Cotton Cordell Super Spot with upgraded hooks. Quote
hookingem Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 Aruku shad, although a red eye shad has been a big producer as well. Quote
WCCT Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 I like the Yo-Zuri Rattl'n Vibe in Chrome/Blue (which I hear they are discontinuing. At least the chrome/blue, as I can't hardly find them anywhere. ) I also like the original Rattle Trap. 1 Quote
stratosjoe Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 XR50 in ghost or pearl melon 1-14' preferably on St Clair for Toad smallmouth Quote
Born2fish Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 I Like the Aruku shad but the new tremors come in silent with no rattles and I can get then with rattles also been doing good on the American shad color. Quote
Super User Gatorbassman Posted October 5, 2011 Super User Posted October 5, 2011 One that runs straight. Spro Aruku Shad is the best I've found for rocks and just plain covering water and it's great for working timber and cutting through grass if you take the back hook off and up the size of the front one. As a matter of fact it's what I caught most of my fish on yesterday. Quote
LuckyHandsINC. Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 Xcalibur either one knocker or original in foxy momma color. I don't know if the fish prefer it but I sure do just cuz it looks friggin awesome. Quote
TrippyJai Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 Another vote for the Spro Aruku Shad. I love this bait. Quote
Super User Catt Posted October 5, 2011 Super User Posted October 5, 2011 Rat-L-Trap® ½ oz RT521 - TOLEDO GOLD or RT820 - RED CHROME/SOLID with Set-Lok hooks Quote
irnwrkr Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 Good ole rattle trap. #2 KVD hooks. Been doing great with chrome blue back. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted October 5, 2011 Global Moderator Posted October 5, 2011 Excalibur XR50 or XRK50 in ghost or red craw. Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted October 5, 2011 Super User Posted October 5, 2011 Cordell Super Spot, 1/4 ounce. Quote
Super User Fishes in trees Posted October 6, 2011 Super User Posted October 6, 2011 I have a number of different lipless cranks that I experiment with from time to time, but day in and day out, I throw a Berkley Frenzy in a shiny threadfin shad color. Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted October 6, 2011 Super User Posted October 6, 2011 Aruku Shad and Xcalibur XR50 for almost all of mine. I fish Traps on a couple lakes, but it's under pretty specific conditions. Quote
Super User deaknh03 Posted October 6, 2011 Super User Posted October 6, 2011 I have the arukus, daiwa tds, and tons of other high end cranks, but my go to is the super spot, probably because I have no fear of snagging it at $2 or $3 each. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted October 6, 2011 Super User Posted October 6, 2011 Get a lure retriever, and put those baits to work! Quote
