What's your favorite crankbait?
I was going through tackle last weekend changing out hooks and such, i stumbled across a few of my favorites. Curious to see what i'm missing out on!
My Top 5:
Strike King 6XD - Chartreuse Blue
Strike King 1.5 Squarebill - Various
Lucky Craft LC 1.5 Squarebill - Sexy Chartuesse Shad
Lucky Craft LV500 Lipless - Spring Craw
6th Sense 250MD - Chartreusse Blue

6th Sense all the way down the board for me. Great baits and they flat out catch fish.

Academy H2O are hard to beat. Especially the squarebills. Also flat out catch fish and for less money than most.

This time of year...
Rapala - Shad Raps, DT6 or other balsa baits for cold water lakes
Spring time - Xcite XB-1 rattling or non-rattling
Summer - Xcite XB-1, XD5 or 6 or Rapala DT16, DD22 or DBIII
Fall - Xcite XB-1 or glide baits
Just depends on the season

Academy H2O are hard to beat. Especially the squarebills. Also flat out catch fish and for less money than most. At around $3 a piece their one of the best values out there and you can buy a tackle tray full for the price of 1 Wiggle Wart.

Favorite? 3-4 of us get together and have to buy 144 at a time. It's an out of production Bagley color, to get one we have to buy a gross. And I think I have 2 left right now.
