Not trying to start a Mine's bigger" thread here but for those of you that think a 10XD is a big crankbait. My boat is in the storage shed and I am too lazy after eating too much turkey to walk out there to dig thru it. I picked up a couple Mag SKT Lucky Craft Square Bills for CB this winter. That is a 6XD on top, a 10XD in the middle for comparison. The Model 120 DR is 2" longer than the 115 shown. What do you think?

I like them and throw something similar It’s basically a treble hooked Swimbait that runs 3-7ft Even smaller bass will attack them when aggressive

If you like fishing Texoma, the smallmouth and spots will attack them with a vengeance.

Hard to throw those big square bills on a standard crankin rod is my only issue. It pulls too hard for that. They will catch fish. My partner caught a 7 pounder on a size 8 at Lavon last year

Yes, I like a swimbait rod that throws 1-4oz baits with those.

many different food sources for bass are larger than a dollar bill. gizzard shad, gills and crappie get a couple pounds at least.

I found my SKT DR 120. This bait dwarfs a 10XD.

The one in that exact color over the dollar bill only catches them up to 15.25 so you may need a bigger one Ken! Swimbait type rod works.

Lucky Craft has 2 big square bills. These were on the one that runs 10’ on 20lbs floro.

I like them in place of big swimbaits during the warm water months.
