TOO CRANKBAIT OR NOT TO CRANKBAIT(that is the question)
Message:
I was going through my 3 tackleboxes and realized I have a TON of crankbaits. All the way from baby-l's to extra deep diving ones. One thing that came to me is I can't remember using a deep diver or catching anything on them in alot of years. Does anyone use them anymore and under what conditions? cmorjoe

Lets put it this way...... I won more money last year on a deep diving crankbait than anything else. I won the "call in sick" tournament on the river last year on a crankbait that dove 18 feet. We weighed in 6 fish for over 21 pounds and took home a very heafty pay check.
Clean them up, get some #4 Mustad Triple Grip treble hooks to put on them, and get yourself a nice whippy rod to use them on. (7 feet with a nice low speed reel)
I promise you if you throw them where ever you go, you'll catch fish on them. Not too many people use them.
My favorites are:
DT series from Rapala
Norman DD-22's
W.E.C. Zoom crankbaits (The TAPP is my favorite)
And ALL the Lucky Craft deep divers
Use them with confidence. You'll catch fish that nobody touches all year and most of the time they'll be big!
Let me know how you do!

I'll let you know

I'm going down the river today and I'll try some. I just didn't know anyone used them any more. Seems if you don't use a senko you don't catch anything. Thanks for the comeback I was starting to wonder where everyone went. cmorjoe
