BUYER'S GUIDE: CRANKBAITS - SQUAREBILLS, LIPLESS CRANKS, AND CRANKBAIT RODS
Welcome to the final buyer's guide of the year! Today we're talking shallow crankbaits and lipless for year round fishing. We're covering which baits stand out from the crowd, which ones have unique actions, and which ones you should make room for in your arsenal. You don't want to miss this!
Crankbaits are some of our favorite lures! Next to swimbaits, we've caught more double digit fish on crankbaits than any other lure category. Understanding how to use these baits and which ones are actually worth putting time into, will cut your learning curve dramatically. From the largest square bills, to the smallest lipless, we're breaking it all down in this final review so you can go out and fish with confidence.
Below you'll find links to all the baits and gear in the video. We're listing them in the order they appeared and including important details like size, weight, and favorite colors, for each bait. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
