I love this crankbait. My papa gave one to me because he's used them before, and i am very thankful for it. I especially love how shallow it runs. Perfect for some of the ponds i fish in. And it imitates a bait fish so well. I will always have some of these in my tackle box

Rated 5 out of 5Â by MasterCaster1 One hot lure
This lure has been a favorite of mine for many years. Spring fishing is fantastic but it works well all year long. Just fish the size that matches the current bait fish size. Catches anything from crappie to muskie. One problem is my favorite color, or should I say the bass favorite color is craw and I'm told this is being discontinued. Big mistake by Rapala if true.

does the crooked lip on this thing make it have an unusual action? or is the action just the normal side-to-side wiggle?
Answers
A:Â
It has a normal action, nothing weird about it.A:Â
I think the crooked lip just keeps the lure from running too deep and also keeps it from hanging up.A:Â
A steady retrieve will produce the normal side to side action but a pop and pause will get it to do some radical things to include turn 180 degrees. For some reason that drives the fish nuts around here.A:Â
The action is more erratic than the usual side to side. I like to fish it with twitches and jerks. Makes bass crazy.A:Â
Yes I think it does. Buy one it catches fish!!!Images for this Answer

definetly! i would use a silver, gold or a natural color would work. for the length i would go for a 2 and a half in to a 3 inch lure.Top 50 Contributor
A:Â
absolutely - caught lots of pickerel on these here in Massachusetts. The #7 size in silver, gold, or perch works best for me in these waters.Details:Â
crucial question if grass ia, say, 2 feet below the surface.Answers
Top 1000 Contributor
A:Â
it runs shallow but if the grass is that close to the surface i would advise a top water lure or weedless plastic.A:Â
It's dependent on lure size and retrieve but 2 to 6 feet is normal.Top 10 Contributor

At the speed I retrieve it usually runs about 12-15 inches.A:Â
This lure runs anywhere from 6 - 0 ft. It depends on how far you cast and how fast you retrieve it.Top 1000 Contributor
A:Â
The lure is rated at depths of 4 to 11 feet depending on how fast you retrieve it of course. If you do a twitch and pause retrieve, you can keep it at two feet but if you want to run something around 2 feet at a steady crank, i would recommend some of the Bomber shallow running cranks. They make some that run as shallow as 12inches... I hope this helps... Good fishin!Details:Â
I just want to hear your suggestions for your favorite shallow runners for bass. Mine would probably be the Bandit 100, the Storm Subwart, Rapala Floater, and Rebel Crawfish. I just want to hear your opinion. ThanksAnswers

Has to be the Storm Thin Fin and the Rapala Shad Rap hands down.Top 50 Contributor
A:Â
Mann's Baby -1 Minus is killer for largemouth bass in shallow water. For smallies, I have not found any better crankbait than the Rebel Crawfish(I have mainly fished smallmouth in streams).Top 100 Contributor
A:Â
My favorite is a Rebel Bumble Bug it will catch loads of bluegill and bass too. Also one of my favorites to use is the Bomber Square A Series. I just started to use the Rapala Shallow Shad Rap and have caught fish with it but haven't used it long enough to consider it a "go to" bait for me.1 of 1
