Field Notes

A shallow squarebill crankbait for covering water around bass holding near cover. It shines when deflecting off wood, rock, and other shallow structure, especially when fish are pressured or finicky. The balsa body and buoyant design make it a good choice for a steady retrieve with occasional contact to trigger strikes.

Pros

  • Balsa construction gives a lively, hard-hunting action
  • Buoyant squarebill design is good for shallow cover
  • Hand-painted and hand-cleared finish

Cons

  • Best suited to shallow water rather than deep presentations
  • Treble hooks and squarebill design can snag in heavy cover
