Do any of you guys use any crankbaits for flats fishing?

Typical Chalk answer.

You gotta get more specific, Mojo.

Like bass crankbaits?

TK suggested the Baby A- and I have a few but I haven't gotten them out of the tackle box yet.

Oh great Chalk. Will you please inform me on any specific types and or lures that might work well for Crankbaits. Also do you know of any good Crankbait brands that might work well for flats fishing.

No

They all work....It's a matter of finding the right ones for the water column your fishing....shallow water you need a shallow crank, or do you want a floater or a suspending crankbait....alot of variables.

Bomber Square As were on sale at BPS and through the catalogue for like $0.69 for a long time. I am interested in fishing more bass style lipped crankbaits that dive to about 2' later this spring. Like I said I haven't done it yet.

A Baby 1- is a killer trout and redfish bait.

Wouldnt a gold spoon qualify as a crank bait?

And they're not as ridiculously priced as alot of other stuff
