Square Bill Shallow Cranks

[Koop]

Looking for some input on these, I'm looking to try out a small variety of some shallow square billed cranks. Looking at the SK Series 4S, Rapala DT Fat and Bomber Model B. I've never had issues with any of these brands of cranks before, but these will be the first square bills I have tried. Is the performance of the bomber model B any better than non balsa square bill cranks?

    Try the Zoom E2 Shallow Crankbait and the Rapala DT Fat.

I use a lot of the Strike King Series 4S and love them! They go through wood, grass etc pretty good. The wobble and bigger profile on them is why i use them. The Chartreuse/black and shad patterns are my favorites!

the lucky craft fat CB has a huge wobble. the bandit 100 series. the lucky craft G.D.S. mini dr doesnt have a square bill but it bounces off rocks great.

[guitarkid]

Bandit 100 series are good cranks to try.

I like the LC RC 1.5

the bagley balsa b is an old favorite of mine.   Hard to beat for fat wide wobbling cranks.

[ChiCityBasser]

I like the Strike King 1XS for super shallow water and also the Bandit Footloose. They have been working pretty good over the last couple of weeks over the weeds and in very skinny water.

I've been using both the Norman Fat Boy and Norman Thin N.  The fat boy has a much wider wobble than the Thin N.

My #1 square bill crank is a Bandit 100

also planning on picking up some Spro little johns next time I'm at BPS, They look like some awesome little cranks!

I got a variety of 5 different brands to try out. I'm not so sure about the bandit 100's good reviews from you all but I'm not to sure about the 1/4oz weight

Ah yes, I forgot to mention those.

They work pretty good for me also, but they are a tad to small for my liking.

I use the Strike king Series 4s and the Lucky Craft RC 1.5 and 2.5.  Both have there place for me. For the money I feel the Strike Kings are hard to be beat. I just wish there was a silent version.

I caught my PB on a Norman Fat Boy, bluegill pattern.

The Bomber Square A is another suggestion.

Another vote for the SK 4S in Sexy Shad.  Also a fan of the Norman Fat Boy in Nutter Shad.

I almost forgot, the Daiwa Peanut is pretty good.

I've had great success with the Bomber Square A, and Norman Mad N. The Bomber Balsa B is another good bait.

try this.

One should never overlook the potential for a Big M custom.  I have a few of his shallow cranks and they are incredible.

My favorite is the bomber Square A, but I tried to buy some last month and no one has any. I checked on line at the bomber site and aparently they no longer make them.

i like the bandit100's and the norman thin n's. havent ran the shallow sk's but i LOVE the series 5's and 6's and im sure that the shallow ones are just as good.

who can afford lucky crafts? hahah

[Big Tom]

I am a big fan of the Lucky Craft 1.5 baits.  They may be pricey but the odds of losing it aren't as great as you may think and they are tough little boogers.

[Primus]

My favorite is the RC 1.5, the 0.5 & the 2.5 have also earned a spot in one of my Plano boxes.
