Have you ever needed a hammer, but used the back of a screwdriver or something similar instead?

Yes, it did get the job done, but it would have been a lot easier to use a tool that was designed specifically for that purpose.

In this post, we will discuss what makes a good fishing rod, the best crankbait rod.

The Best Lipless Crankbait – My Top 9 Picks – (October 2022 Updated)

October 16, 2022 By Wes 2 Comments

If you could only fish with one lure for a day what lure would you choose? Personally, I probably would grab a lipless crankbait.

Many would agree that lipless crankbaits are some of the best ways to catch big bass.

For one, the size of the lure allows you to throw them a mile, thus making it very easy to cover a lot of water.

They are also super easy to use, whether you like to work them across the bottom, burn them across the top or use the yo-yo retrieve, you are bound to catch a fish no matter the (or lack of) fishing experience you have.

Lastly, they give off a great about of vibration and sound that many have said acts like a dinner bell in drawing in bass for a bite.

What more can I say? These baits are a must-have when fishing. However, did you know that there are several different types of lipless crankbaits available on the market today? What makes it worse is that no two lures are exactly alike. They all bring their own uniqueness to the fishing scene.

How can a fisherman know which one to throw?

In this post, we are going to take a closer look at some of my favorites.

Analyzing 21 Lures In Search For The Best Bass Fishing Lure 2020

January 21, 2020 By Wes 1 Comment

What are the best bass fishing lures? Talk about a difficult question to answer in a single blog post. With so many different types of bass lures and baits on the market, it is impossible to limit it down to one or even the top ten.

The reason that question is so difficult to answer is because there are a variety of different lure categories and under each category, there are several different kinds of baits.

Take, for example, crankbaits. Under the crankbait category, you have squarebill, single knocker, rattle, silent, lipless, deep diving and more are coming to the market each and every year. Then once you choose a subcategory there are a number of different brands that make the lure within the subcategory unique to its brand. And to think that is just the crankbait category.

We also need to take into consideration the seasons. There are lures that work best in the summer, and there are lures that work best in the fall. The same can be said about post spawn vs pre-spawn, and spring vs winter.

Are you searching for the best crankbaits for crappie?

As a bass anglers oftentimes we think of crappie as baitfish and we are looking for lures that imitate them to catch more bass.

So, when we go fishing for crappie we tend to downsize our presentation and choose soft plastics or worms.

However, we need to remember that these fish too are predators and will react to a reaction style bait such as a crankbait.

In fact, crankbaits are a great way to weed out those small crappie and get onto those larger more aggressive ones.

With that being said, let’s take a look at what we think to be the top 5 best crappie crankbaits.

What are the best crankbaits for bass?

Wow! What a question! There are so many different crankbaits on the market today, how could we possibly narrow it down to just a few?

Take, for example, the square bill crankbait, could you narrow it down to your top 5 favorite squarebills? There are hundreds if not thousands of different lures that fall under this category. To pick just 5 or even 10 would be difficult (believe me I’ve tried).

Now, let’s think about the broader question: what are the best crankbaits for bass? That question is even more difficult to answer, but I like challenges, so in this post, I am going to try to answer that question.

To make it easier, I have broken it down into 3 categories. I have picked a few from each category that I would consider to be my favorite and possibly the best (by no means is this list exhaustive).

I hope you enjoy!
