Description

What is the main task of this lure? CrankBoy is designed to be extremely realistic, with slim and highly frequent action, to wake the hunting instinct in predator and provoke him to attack. Not too large, not too small – JUST RIGHT! One of the most time-tested baits in Zorba’s Family. The bill is thin enough to have lots of great, hunting action, but strong enough (polycarbonate) that it doesn’t break or wear down after grinding it on rocks or slamming it into docks. Great for pike, zander, perch, trout and bass! /*! elementor – v3.14.0 – 18-06-2023 */ .elementor-heading-title{padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title[class*=elementor-size-]>a{color:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-small{font-size:15px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-medium{font-size:19px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-large{font-size:29px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xl{font-size:39px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xxl{font-size:59px} Swim video Other colors

Field Notes

This is a realistic hardbait with a slim profile and frequent action meant to imitate baitfish and trigger predatory strikes. It is a good choice for casting around rocks and docks, and the durable polycarbonate bill suggests it can handle repeated contact with cover. Best worked with steady retrieves and pauses to let the bait hunt naturally.

Pros

  • Very realistic baitfish profile
  • Frequent hunting action
  • Durable polycarbonate bill for cover contact

Cons

  • No size or depth specs provided
  • Likely best with a more deliberate retrieve than a simple straight retrieve
