Fine Tuning Crank Baits
What do you guys do to optimize your hook ups with crank baits. I know I
titled this post fine tuning, but the Heddon crank baits I am uisng really
need very little to make them get strikes. The come witht he Excalibur
rotating hooks which also seem to hook up pretty well. I am just looking
for any little things I can do to keep the fish on the hook longer.For a fish story, I ran into three areas where fish were actively chasing
shad yesterday. In the thrid spot I nailed largemouth and smallmouth both
chasing, and saw lots of stripers breaking over on the shad in the
shallowest water... See the rest of this in the post... Fish Story.

| Bob, Personally I switch all my crankbait hooks to Mustad Triple Grips, I am a
huge Daiichi fan, but when it comes to crankbaits I don't stray away from
Triple Grips. All my buddies that fish Walleye tournaments do the same, and
that is pretty much where I picked it up. On top of that I use a Fiberglass
rod for fishing Crankbaits (Thanks Mr. Clunn), and have seen my hook to
landing percentage go way up. So far I have not run into an instance where
either has really failed me, bottom line is you are going to lose some
crankbait fish, but you are also going to get a lot of bites. Chris Rennert |
