I have been watching your older videos on crank baits I love throwing crank baits and this one opened up on how to use the crank bait on the lakes I just moved to and I see I need to up my crank bait game with some different types of cranks. Once again thank you for this timely video.

[@BassGeek]

[@brianlee9074]

Love that RockCrawler55 and the flatside cranks too. Thanks for the video Hank. #100percentwatchsquad

[@BassGeek]

Thank you I need to get some of the 50’s I was looking at those the other day

[@LowBrowFishing]

#100percentwatchsquad Gotta love a Bandit crank! I also like a Rapala OG crank. To me, it's kind of like a winter squarebill that I can work along steeper banks. Merry Christmas to you and yours, Hank and Mike! Here's hoping we all get that special bit of gear we've been asking for!

[@BassGeek]

Merry Christmas sir! The OG IS KILLER

[@billyhewitt9607]

[@rickrobinson7032]

Love crankbait fishing. My favorites for the water I fish are a DT 6 and Norman. Don't have bluffs, but plenty of rip rap. Thanks for the tips

[@BassGeek]

That works!

[@HarryUsery]

I love to ARIG in the cold weather! Thanks GEEK

[@BassGeek]

I do to but sometimes I just need my crankbait fix.

[@joshgrimes9554]

Shad raps have always been my go to and caught me tons of bass.... i have some rock crawlers i purchased when they very 1st came out, and have never even tried them out yet.

[@BassGeek]

You should they are a great winter crankbait

[@073286]

You were prepping your boat right behind me the other morning on soho. I ended up having a 22lb 5oz bag of smallmouth that day dropping and on a jerkbait so I assume you're good luck lol.

[@BassGeek]

I have been told that!

[@poppy.fishing]

Keep on cranking big guy! #100percentwatchsquad

[@BassGeek]

Love to crank it! 😆

[@ryanchrissyblankenship941]

I’m goin out tomor and may do some cranking.

[@BassGeek]

It was a fun day

[@weslovell815]

Started winter fishing yr 2000...have consistently caught spots up to 6lb & Lmouth 8-10lb (one 12) throwing shallow to deep (all type banks/slopes/ledges) in clear upland lakes w/ Norman Deep little N and 3/4 oz blade... every decent day and DO NOT worry about water temp (I used to)...some days a bust but.....

[@BassGeek]

That's awesome.

[@Daiwa_Is_King]

When it comes to crankbaits I always have an O.S.P. blitz series tied on. It’s honestly one of my confidence baits and has produced some of my bigger fish in the winter. Last year it played a major role in the elite series and cashed a lot of money for some top pros. You won’t hear them talking about it though due to them not wanting to mess with there sponsors who’s bait they were not using to get most of there wins. Yes they are expensive and most people will not want to spend that much for a crankbait and I get that. Anyway thank you for another amazing video Hank you have been on a terror as of late. I just want to say thank you and hopefully you have an amazing Christmas and a happy new year. I can’t wait to see what you have in store for 2025 !!! #HUNDOSQUAD #HANKTHETANK #BESTCHANNELONKZbin

[@BassGeek]

HUMMMMM Well I don't care about sponsors getting pissed so I'm looking those up now.

[@jessecooper9795]

Get with Bruce West at The Jig Shack. Best painter of those Rk Crawlers around!

[@BassGeek]

Awesome! Thanks for the tip

[@richdowdy4626]

That Shadrap imitates a baby Carp.

[@BassGeek]

Yes very well but it was is called Crawdad. See for your self : www.tacklewarehouse.com/Rapala_Shad_Rap_5_Crankbaits/descpage-RSR5.html?_gl=1*mi2tum*_up*MQ..*_gs*MQ..&gclid=Cj0KCQiAvbm7BhC5ARIsAFjwNHsrCpSlOCygfehNL4qcVe6y2tkFhqjlJEqLO9-yhPEhHfGtB7kpWhUaAnwaEALw_wcB

[@PressOn-r1o]

Do you know what the approx water temperature is where you're fishing?

[@BassGeek]

ON this day and lake it was 53 I was fishing another lake 2 days before and it was 45

[@PressOn-r1o]

Thanks for the reply. I'm located in NE OH. Water is freezing over off n on. Haven't had much success lately 🤔

[@CWR3212]

I like to throw whatever the fish are biting that day and hope that I guess the lure correctly within 3 lure changes..lol..

[@BassGeek]

Hahahaha well

[@Bassingtv]

Y’all can do soft plastics and giant baits during winter and y’all will get bites. All I’ve caught in winter is thru bandido bugs June craw

[@BassGeek]

@@Bassingtv Yup you sure can throw soft plastics in the winter. They are great and any bug is a great color

[@Army_Outdoors_88N]

Thank you sir. I hope all is well prepping for the big move.

Bob you done knew this didn’t ya.

[@chriscurtis8577]

🎣👊🏻🤟🏻🎣🫶🏻

[@jessebrock7574]

Unfortunately that's not going to be for me I fish here in Florida panhandle area and we don't have none of that around here

[@BassGeek]

@@jessebrock7574 You have drops? You have rivers and lakes that are famed up rivers? There are channels and channel swings. There are steep drops even if it’s 1-2foot. It works

[@073286]

Then don't watch if it's not for you genius and of course you don't have what we have. It's a mountain lake that's over 200 ft deep in places with a 50 degree water temp lol. So you all don't throw crankbaits in FL?? Last I checked you don't have to have this exact layout in the video to throw a crankbait.

[@HarryUsery]

Ghosty flat sides get them for me. Love the vids, thanks for sharing! " I love to ARIG in the cold" weather! Thanks GEEK

[@BassGeek]

Oh yeah I do to!
