Something I'm working on this year is my crankbait, I've always been finessed but it's time to learn power fishing. I love your enthusiasm and I always appreciate your excitement for the sport nothing but love man

[@collector_effectors]

These series are some of the best bait tutorials ever made Mike. Many thanks. 🙏🙏🙏

[@eugene955]

This is like studying the playbook in football, a lot of intricate details and variables. Great, easy to follow information.

[@jotabarb]

The best vídeo I've seen about the different types of cranks!!! Thanks IKE, from Portugal!!!

[@nflisrigged1395]

My favorite way to fish! ..... Crankbait fishing 🎣 👌 I got two Crankbait rods , a Megabass flatside special and Skeet Reese S glass crankbait rod. Using Ike rods for everything else , drop shot , top water, etc

[@vballbobsbricks7074]

Love these series videos. My 11 yr old son is watching them to learn more and we talk about what he hears in the videos and then go out and try the tips. We are in southern PA outside of lancaster. Do a lot of creek fishing and hit lakes and the conestoga and Susquehanna rivers. All from the bank. The tips and tricks are very helpful. We are working on trying to figure out a local small lake which was a quarry at one point long ago. Tough place to fish

[@benonem]

nice tips....tight lines -Ben

[@rodcashman4793]

Great in depth series. Back in the early 80's I used these baits a ton. Just now starting to fish again I'll have to use them again. Thank you for sharing this great video 📹 👍

[@larrygabbard4896]

Og,dt 6 in green gizzard are my favorite

[@bluegrassbodybuildingfitne406]

I am a big megabass fan. With that said the DT series is the best crankbait of all time in my opinion.

[@SlayerODragon]

yeah man DT is the most universal crankbait series created. Rapala knew what they were doing, i love the shad raps too from them.

[@thequixoticangler3364]

Depends on the location. On Bull Shoals Lake the Wiggle Wart absolutely dominates all others. But yeah, the DT is in everybody's box.

[@erichoffman2014]

I gotta say, well done Mike! as usual.

[@poeanglersfishingwithbrian8361]

hay man this one is on point and I don't have many crankbaits but I got one that will get thrown after seeing this. So thanks

[@jebfishing]

I love these series, I learn so much from them!

[@elizabethsumpter9129]

👍👍 Great explanation of crank baits.

[@andyd834]

I love rapalas bluegill color. Been trying to get bit on the bx brat but also love the scatter rap.

[@Matt-wr5kx]

I get em on the brat. Just gotta find the fish

[@mountainstatebassin]

A master class in crankbait fishing

[@MrJohnB-qs6dp]

Great series!!! Learning many things about the crankbait I didn't know. Would the scatter rap be considered a wide wobble?? Will be tuning in on the following parts of this series and others that follow. Stay Safe & God Bless!!!

[@Icharis]

so sometimes you get super high pressure with really crappy water visibility, how do you approach that?

[@barrettbailey4381]

So let me ask this, when it’s clear water and warmest water of the year, do you still want a tight wobble with it being clear or can you move to a wide wobble?

[@fivekeys1376]

Talking about pressured fish I think guntersville bass have seen more lures then a bass pro associate 😢😂

[@bobjohnston5527]

I fish tidal river current here in Fredericton New Brunswick. What is the best crankbaits for slow to medium current. I used flat side crankbaits and rounded ones square bill crankbaits. Yesterday I used DT 10 in chartreuse brown without any luck. River was clear, very low.

[@ashleem1387]

How about this year in lake Murray that moderate wobble crankbait is catching garfish from me I fish in a cove were two creeks come through used to be loaded with Bass now all this year I caught mostly garfish 2 to 4 ft long it's very hard to do on a kayak that's how I do most of my fishing

[@trevorschneiderfishing]

Ike, thanks for all the info as always! Where does the square bills sit in the three categories?

[@robfunke909]

Square bills are typically a moderate to wide wobble

[@mamo9389]

Sir, thank you for this awesome insights. I am subscribed to your channel since some months now. I learned a lot from you and it helped me increase my success rate. I am starting to think more like a fish 🙂 Concerning Crankbaits I have one question. When I combined correctly what you taught us here, a crank with wide wobble would be the right choice when fishing clear water down deep where the sun light is dimmed out naturally, right?

[@rayminthecat]

Bass pro is complicit

[@cliff1422]

Where do lipless crankbaits fall in all of this?

[@kickinitoutdoors5782]

I disagree I personally think at least in my fisheries the Chatter bait creates better reaction strikes than crankbait. I live in northern NY and fish ST Lawrence and all lakes in NY.

[@RazvanMihuta]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@rayminthecat]

The money is the problem

[@rayminthecat]

Come clean

[@TheJacemer]

Thank god he shaved that goatee thing he had going- he looked like a 1980s NHL goon

[@rayminthecat]

These poor dunk fisherman are just the tip of the iceberg. It's the game that's rigged. I will speak on this.

[@rayminthecat]

The sponsors are as complicit as the cheaters it's time to address that
