An Important Lure in Any Angler’s Tackle Box

For over six years, Phillip “Phil” Kwilose has served as general manager of Five Star Home Improvement in Iowa City, Iowa. A resident of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Phil Kwilose has several outdoor hobbies, such as fishing.

One of the most versatile lures for fishermen is the crankbait. Crankbaits seek to imitate baitfish and are suitable for luring both lethargic and feeding fish. Crankbaits work year-round and on both cold-water and warm-water fish, including trout and bass.

Crankbaits come in many different sizes and colors and are generally categorized into lipped and lipless. They can be weighted for different depths but are usually tailored towards bottom-oriented fish, although they are very effective for suspended mid-depth fish.

Sometimes, crankbait can be mistaken for jerkbait. But crankbait typically has two treble hooks while jerkbait has three. In terms of size, jerk bait has a thinner and longer body, while crankbait tends to be broader and shorter.
