Crankbaits are versatile lures that can be very effective for bass fishing. Here are some tips to make the most out of using crankbaits: 1. Choose the right crankbait based on the depth you want to fish. Shallow diving crankbaits work best in waters less than 10 feet deep, while deeper diving crankbaits are suitable for deeper waters. 2. Pay attention to the speed of retrieval. Varying your retrieval speed can help trigger more strikes from bass. 3. Use crankbaits around structure such as rocks, logs, and weed beds where bass like to hide. 4. Experiment with different colors and sizes to see what the bass are responding to on that particular day. 5. Make sure to use the right gear, such as a medium-heavy rod and a baitcasting reel, to handle the resistance of crankbaits. 6. When you feel a strike, don't immediately set the hook. Instead, reel down to the fish and then set the hook with a firm, upward motion.
