Description

What more can be said about the 2.5 squarebill? Known the world over (literally) for it's ability to deflect off of rock and wood, allowing you to fish it where the fish hang out. NOTE: The image for the Gizzard Shad is actually a 1.5 squarebill. I just have not had time to paint a 2.5 for the website picture sp [;ease just use this as a reference. Warning : Only throw our 2.5 Squarebill if you want to catch fish!

Field Notes

A squarebill crankbait is built to deflect off rock, wood, and other cover, making it a strong choice for shallow targets. Cast it around laydowns, riprap, docks, and stump fields, then retrieve steadily so it bumps cover and triggers reaction strikes.

Pros

  • Deflects well off rock and wood
  • Good for shallow cover and reaction bites
  • Simple cast-and-retrieve presentation

Cons

  • Can hang up if fished too deep or in heavy brush
  • Best use is limited to shallow water
