How do you choose the right deep diving crankbait? When is one better than another? In today’s buyer’s guide we’re taking out all the guess work as we review our favorite crankbaits. We’re showing you the best baits for every season so you know exactly which types to throw, and when to use them. From cold water and speed cranking baits, to wide wobbling Summer baits, we’ve got you covered!
Crankbait fishing is a giant category! You can stand in front of the crankbait wall at your local tackle shop and your head will spin as you try to figure out what to use. Or you can simply watch this video and let us show you exactly how we’ve narrowed it down over the years. At certain times of year different actions and colors work better than others. We’re eliminating all the guess work and showing you the best of the best.
Below you’ll find links to the exact baits, as well as the rod and reel combos we recommend. We’ve listed the baits in the order of appearance and included our favorite colors for each to make it simple for you to follow along. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Great video guys! I'm brushing up on my crankbait knowledge. Lots of great options. I've had a lot of success on Rapala DT's in the Shad color. I don't know what it is, but it just seems to flat catch 'em on these northern natural lakes. I also really like Bluegill, Parrot, and Red Crawdad. Those four colors in the DT6, 10, and 16 and I'm set most of the time!

@kalronn

Thank you Matt and Tim! I've been speed cranking on my home lake here in California and each day I go out I'm the only guy catching fish with others slow fishing bottom contact with no luck. One guy even told his buddy I was reeling my bait too fast and that's not how you want to work it (lol). I've been on a budget and historically have never fished crankbaits much so I was having to crank on my 6'6 medium heavy bass x rod. Today I lost a few fish due to my rod so I invested in the Dobyn's, very excited.

Well done guys!!! Love the tactical cranks and Rapala DT series. Only other one is the bandit line - 200 - 300 series fills a nice mid depth. Caught a bunch of solid bass in 46 degree water in MA yesterday speed cranking the tactical crank and also jerk baiting with the lucky craft SP. It was interesting as I needed to pause the jerkbait up to 15 seconds to get them to react but they were aggressively eating the crankbait. Two totally different speeds / cadences. I’ve been using my Dobyns Champion 734 for the Tactial Crank and it’s been working well.

Learned so many valueable things from your videos, thanks for all the effort you are putting in making them! On the topic of deep cranking: wouldn't sinking crankbaits be an option to reach and successfully fish these deeper depths. Maybe also an opportunity to down size the cranks. Any experience and tips on that?

Very fertile water. Any tips? Thanks again guys and thanks for one of the best channels out there.

Have you guys tried the St. Croix Legend Glass rods? They are similar to the Mojo Glass but with Fuji Alconite guides and the awesome 15 year warranty. Other than for my magnum and/or extra deep cranking needs (Phenix X-14 7'11" H composite, need the graphite for driving those bigger hooks in) I rely on these rods for cranking. They took crankbaits from one of my back seat techniques to a giga-confidence technique. Also sort of surprised you haven't had success cold water speed cranking with the Rapala DTs. For me, the DTs outfish any other crankbait in frigid water and I fish them fast. If they really aren't going for fast, I fish a shad rap instead.
@bassin8827
@bassin8827 2 года назад
Thanks guys for everything you do. After watching all of your cranking videos im seriously torn between the Dobyns 805 & Zodias glass rod. I plan to throw & speed crank your Tactical DD, DD22s, & 6XD/8XD mainly. 10xd maybe rarely. Please help me make this decision LOL Thanks 😅
@tacticalbassin
@tacticalbassin 2 года назад
Personally I'd go Zodias glass. The shorter glass action loads incredibly deep and keeps them pinned on a variety of hooks. But if the 10XD becomes a primary bait, you're better off with the 805 for sure.

This has been the norm for the last two months atleast twice a week. I was hollering like a nut case for hours. And I tried other cranks but no dice. Put the tactical dd back on and it’s game on again and again.

Thanks for another great video guys! I’ve been in the fence for a while between the 968cbr and the 906cbr. I’ve already got the 845cbr but I’m looking to add a second cranking rod. I don’t throw extra deep divers often so I’m leaning towards the 906 but if I wanted to could the 906 handle say a 10xd or an Azuma 24?
@tacticalbassin
@tacticalbassin 2 года назад
It definitely will NOT throw those big baits. I wish it would but it won't unless you force it to the absolute limit. Its PERFECT for the Tactical crank up to about a 6XD

Tons of great info once again, thanks guys! If you had to pick one reel for deep cranking - which would it be, the Tranx 200 or Bantam MGL? Both great reels, but I’ve already got the Orochi Launcher and need to pick the best reel for it. Thanks.

For shallower cold water cranking is the Ott Defoe garage crank acceptable? I think I remember you testing it one winter but I’m not sure it was true cold water cranking or just fall crankbait fishing. I tried cranking on my home water with a tactical crank and promptly wedged it into the bottom.

Great video as always! So just wondering as a novice fisherman here. I started out throwing the academy sports brand and when I started looking at "better" crankbaits I went 6th sense, I've watched a lot of yalls videos and can only remember hearing them once. So my question is do yall use them much, and what is your overall thoughts on their stuff?

Hey guys I love everything you do and hope to meet you guys one day. I bought two poison adrenas because of you guys videos one heavy for flipping and a med heavy for my Texas rig stuff. If I was going to buy a spinning rod for an overall spinning rod and wanted to get the adrena which one would you say? Or should I go for something different? You guys turned me into a shimano addict and might not ever buy something different. I would imagine that the spinning rod is as sensitive or more than the casting rods. Thank you once again for everything you do.

Great video! Thanks again. Quick question: I currently own the Dobbyn's 805 CB rod for heavy cranking, but I need other rods for "Traditional Size" crankbaits, Squarebills, and Lipless crankbaits. Your favorite rods, in the Loomis IMX Pro lineup for these types of baits is the 906 CBR for "Traditional Size" cranking and 845 CBR for the Squarbills and Lipless Crankbaits. These rods are both Medium Heavy rods with very similar characteristics with the main difference being the 906 is 7'6" and the 845 is 7'. Would just one of these rods work for all three cases? If so, which would excel the most between the 906 and 845 if you wanted only one rod for these three techniques? I should mention that I also intend to purchase the Loomis 843C MBR if that makes a difference, and I would consider the Megabass Flat Side Special in place of either the 906 or 845 CBR rods. Thanks.
@tacticalbassin
@tacticalbassin 2 года назад
If you're open to a flat side I'd get a 906 and a flat side 👍🏼 That would be fun! If only one, the 845 cbr for sure.

I’m purchasing either the NRX+ 904c MBR or the NRX+ 844c MBR today…Can I deep crank with them? I’m only 5’-9” and a little concerned about the longer 904. What techniques can I fish on these ( A-rig, glide, flip/pitch jigs)? Would you go for the longer 904 rod or stay with the 844? I already have the NRX+ 843 MBR if that helps you make your suggestion.
@tacticalbassin
@tacticalbassin 2 года назад
I really like that 844 (personal preference). If it were me, I'd stay there. The 4 power isn't a giant step up from the 3 power... its not quite as stout as you're thinking. Bigger jigs, you can crank in a pinch (I landed a big one on video recently doing exactly that), worms, texas rigs, etc... Probably not glide, A rig, Flip.

St Croix's Bass X, medium heavy moderate action, 7'2" is a phenomenally cheap option for larger squarebills and lipless cranks, havent really tried it on deep divers but it seems to have the back bone, just think the big honkin deep divers would be too much for it. I'd like to try it with your tactical DD since its a smaller deep diver with less drag as it swims. The rod is also my favorite finesse jig rod, it just does alot if anyone needs a budget rod for this style of fishing.

@marcanzlovar72
@marcanzlovar72 2 года назад
Do you happen to lightly file down the bill? I only ask is cause I found one of my tacktical DDs got nicked and the abrasion on the bill transferred to my line and I broke off on a log. I was all sad. So I check my bill and line to prevent that.
@tacticalbassin
@tacticalbassin 2 года назад
We just fish with them. They'll naturally sand themselves down over time, it's just part of grinding along the bottom. That shouldn't ever knick your line though because the dive angle keeps the line up and away from the bill.

Yes, we've fished it quite a bit. That's one of the fringe baits that ALMOST ended up in the video but we had to cut it off somewhere. They're a unique bait. Tighter action, very steep dive... actually pretty similar in functionality to that Bullet crank. They're definitely worth a try 👍
