Description

This crank is beautifully painted in an exclusive original "Black And Bruised" pattern that flares out a vibrant and fish attracting color scheme that is effective in all water clarities but is at it's maximum potential in dark, dingy, muddy/stained waters. It excels at producing an aggressive, thumping action and serves as a 4x4 in heavy rock/boulder type bottoms where the big lunker bass lurk! The highly durable, high quality lure blank along with the Clique Baits proprietary tough-as-nails clear coat will hold up after countless casts and giant fish caught! Outfitted with the industry's premium top of the line hooks and components.

Field Notes

This is a crankbait built to cover water and trigger reaction bites, especially around heavy rock and boulder bottoms. The description points to maximum effectiveness in dark, dingy, muddy, or stained water where the aggressive thumping action and bold color can help bass locate it. Use a steady retrieve and deflect it off cover to imitate a fleeing baitfish or crawfish.

Pros

  • Aggressive thumping action
  • Strong visibility in stained or muddy water
  • Durable clear coat and premium components

Cons

  • Likely less effective in ultra-clear water than in dirty water
  • Can snag or deflect hard in heavy rock cover
