what is everyones favorite/ best producing squarebill crank ?
Zoom WEC E1
Lucky Craft BDS 3
XCalibur XCS 100
For me, it's the 1.5 Strike King in Sexy blue back herring.
I just picked up a bunch of Bomber Squarebill A's in firetiger. It may take the SK's place soon
KVD 1.0 orange belly craw
Only squarebill I own but it has caught me 8 fish these past 2 weeks. (Only fishing for 5 hours)
KVD 1.5. I love this crankbait, but I picked up a couple different brands to try.
Lc rc 1.5
Strike King KVD 1.5

Another kvd 1.5 vote. natural bream, green gizzard Shad, chartreuse black back, bluegill just to name a few.
LC 1.5 or KVD 1.5
The Little John is quickly moving up the list though.
KVD 1.5 but Im planning on giving the Bomber Square A and the Bandit Squarebills a shot this year.
Old School, here.................Big O , perch or brown crawdad.
I like the KVD 1.5 in black back chartreuse and crazy chartreuse color. Cataouatche special is a great one too.
SK 2.5 & the rapala clackin'crank and crankin rap with the latter two being my preference. I do think the SK have a little better snag resistance but I like that i can run the rapalas a little slower and get good action and the finish has held up better for me than the SK.
Bagley flat b, Combat FSR, KVD 1.5, Bandit 100 (not the new one).
KVD 1.5 But I didnt just get a few river2sea square bills. They look pretty good.
I will add a scratch to the skipping record............the SK KVD's. I like the results and like to fish the 2.5 more, but if I could only have 1 it would be the 1.5.
This question has come up before. I've still got the same answer. I haven't found a better all around square bill than a Timber Tiger DC8. Color depending on water clarity. Most of the time I use their Texas Shad color which is a whitish silvery grey color with rose tinges on the sides. Really muddy water I'll use a purple/chartruese color.
Bomber Square A in Oxbow Bream (an old reliable);
KVD 2.5 in Green Gizzard Shad;
KVD 2.5 in Bluegill.
I do like the KVD 1.5, but also the H20 express cranks (mainly for their color schemes) and am also a big fan of the Norman Thin 'N!
I don't know if I would say they are my favorites , but two of my most productive over the years have been the old Bagley Balsa B and Killer B.
Bagley Balsa B2 Crankbait!!!!
Balsa B2 Crankbait took the title in the 2004 Bassmaster Classic. It
features a square lip to help it bounce of obstacles, and its body is
made with high density balsa wood. This unique design allows it to float
when you let off the line, helping you to get out of snags. Designed
for stump and timber environments, the Bagley B2 is ideal when fishing
near heavy cover.
This bait has never failed me
Mine would be a Bomber Square A in Black/Chartreuse. Caught a lot of fish on that the past few years. Fire tiger works well also.
Lucky Craft Fat CB BDS-1 in Golden Craw
Lucky Craft RC 1.5
