Favorite Brand Of Crankbaits In The Less Than $15 Range 2024


fishing user avatarcjam93 reply : 

Hey guys so like the title says what is your favorite brand of crankbaits in the less than $15 range?


fishing user avatarZach P reply : 

It's hard to beat cranks made by Strike King, Bagley, and Bandit for their price point. I have caught tons of fish on each of these brands and I'm sure any other user on here would say the same.


fishing user avatarMontanaro reply : 

<15 is a saturated market.


fishing user avatarMccallister25 reply : 

Bomber cranks, and strike king. KVD 1.5, and red eye shad.


fishing user avatarStingray23 reply : 

Xcalibur


fishing user avatar*Hootie reply : 

Been doing good lately with the Gary yamamoto line of crankbaits.

To land it, you need a Bandit.

For me I have by far the best luck on strike king XD series. I fish very clear water and they have that perfect wobble. Tennessee Shad is my go to color in summertime


fishing user avatarRaul reply : 

About 80% of my crankbaits are Rapala, they cost less than 10 bucks.


fishing user avatarTJS209 reply : 

Strike King and change the hooks out to mustad short shank triple grip hooks a size bigger


fishing user avatarww2farmer reply : 

Strike king is my favorite. I also like xcalibur.

^^ This too, not sure how I left out Rapala lol


fishing user avatardoyle8218 reply : 

That's hard to answer because every crankbait I own is under $15.


fishing user avatarCreekcrappie reply : 

Strike king, Bandit, and rapala. My favorite being strike king.


fishing user avatarJaderose reply : 

All of them...and by that, I mean I don't think I own a crankbait that cost more than $15


fishing user avatarTeal reply : 

I like them all.

^^^This. Rapala and Strike King are my favorites.


fishing user avatarTorqueConverter reply : 

Rapala.  I can slow roll a wooden Rapala by fish and get hammered while other guys are struggling to get bit burning, grinding and banging their generic plastic cranks.

If I had to narrow it down to 2 brands that would likely be my choice.


fishing user avatarBluebasser86 reply : 

Strike King and H2O makes up a majority of my squarebills anymore but I love the Spro line up as well. 


fishing user avatarA-Jay reply : 

Do yourself a favor and check out the hard baits put out by 6th Sense Custom Lure Company.

 

You'll be glad you did.

Wow, no kidding! These look impeccable ...

Wonder where best e-tailer price is?


fishing user avatarFishes in trees reply : 

Timber Tigers  - cover most depths with the same profile.  DC 4, DC5, DC8, DC13 & DC16.   Most of my crank fish are caught with the DC8 & DC 16.

The X75 Flat was killing them south of the border and so far this year, it's been my top producer for both size & numbers.

I like that baits look... They have got , I believe

About the best art work I have ever seen on a crankbait, at that price! What colors are working?


fishing user avatardrodriguez reply : 

All of the above.


fishing user avatarBankbeater reply : 

For shallow water you can't beat a Mann's 1 minus.

Down south it was the Supermodel Shad & Wild Herring Shad and up here in the clear water of North woods the Bluegill & the Green Sunfish have been smoking hot.

fishing user avatarOK Bass Hunter reply : 

Rapala DT series get my vote.


fishing user avatariceintheveins reply : 

Probably strike king. I really love bombers, bandits, and many others though.


fishing user avatarRipSomeLips reply : 

For me I believe in the H20 brand from academy. I am crazy about getting maximum value for all my purchases and this fits the bill. They work great and are at such competitive rates. Usually around $4, although I caught about 25 bass this year on a gold shad they had on clearance for $.98. Too bad I lost it on a snag.


fishing user avatarstkbassn reply : 

Norman and Bomber, no doubt


fishing user avatarbigbill reply : 

Bomber model A and shallow A crankbaits.

Norman thin N and fatboy crankbaits.

Mann's baby 1 minus crankbaits.

Rapala Orginal Floater Minnow.

Rapala Shad Rap.

Rapala jointed floating minnow.

Rapala countdown jointed minnow.

Rapala glass shad rap.

There's a reason why the InFisherman Guys use the rapala shad raps in there TV shows. I haven't tried all the other brands of crankbaits yet. I have most of them but never sat there and used them.

Don't forget the shad, garlic and craw scent just a little will do.


fishing user avatarWIGuide reply : 

Bomber, Rapala, and Xcalibur are my favorites. 


fishing user avatarDTack reply : 

Squarebills the KVD are pretty tough to beat.  I am wanting to try the Spro fat John and the 6th sense baits.  For medium and deep divers I am a fan of the Norman baits, lil N and DD22


fishing user avatariabass8 reply : 

Spro Fat John

XCS100

Kvd 1.5


fishing user avatarbclark7b reply : 

Strike king! And these storm arashi's are really growing on me
