Why these fit

If you mean Clyde's Cranks in general, the strongest all-around picks here are shallow reaction baits and panfish-profile baits for bass.

• The squarebills — especially Clyde's Cranks 1.5 Squarebill - Candy Smallmouth and Clyde's Cranks 1.5 squarebill - Lightning Perch — are best for shallow cover, deflection, and reaction strikes in the 2-4 ft range.
• Clyde's Cranks 2.5 Squarebill - White Crappie gives you a slightly bigger profile and a 2-6 ft range, useful when bass want a more natural baitfish look.
• Clyde's Cranks 3.5" Sammy Style Dog Walker - Turquoise Terror is the topwater option for surface feeding fish.
• Clyde's Cranks Bream Slide Style - "Simple Gill" is a strong choice when bass are keyed on bluegill or other panfish around shallow cover.

Technique notes

• Squarebills: cast past the target, crank steadily, and let the bait bang into wood, rock, docks, or laydowns.
• Use pauses after contact to trigger strikes.
• The smaller 1.5s are better for tighter cover and smaller forage; the 2.5 is better when you want more presence and a bit more depth.
• For the Sammy-style bait, use a steady walk-the-dog retrieve over open water or along vegetation edges.
• For the Bream Slide, fish slow with short twitches and pauses so it glides naturally around shallow cover.

When to switch

• Switch to a glidebait like Clyde's Cranks Bullshooter Style Glidebait - Electric Pumpkinseed or Clyde's Cranks BuShido Shad Style Glidebait- Yellow Perch when you want a bigger profile for larger bass.
• Switch to topwater when fish are visibly feeding near the surface.
• Switch to squarebills when fish are shallow but not fully committed to topwater.
• Switch to the bream-style glide when bass are focused on bluegill/panfish around docks, beds, or shallow cover.
