    Default Pulling Crankbaits


    Does anyone pull crankbaits in Virginia. I mostly fish Smith Mountain lake. I am interested to know how much success everyone has pulling cranks here.
    Thanks,
    Aaron

    I've never had any luck pulling cranks but it must work because there are a lot of people that do it.

    I have had some luck pulling them on Kerr Reservoir. Caught some nice ones pulling Bandit crank baits.

    I've got a large selection of crankbaits and never give them a good chance to catch fish. I know a charter guy that pulls 16 all at once and he tears them up. I guess it's like anything else, you have to spend time and learn the tricks. Good luck with them.

    I’ve never done it. But I’d like two. I like the idea of floating baits if I had to stop
    The boat for some reason.

    I pull cranks a lot. I can everything that swims on them. Small Arkie cranks for crappie and yellow perch, bigger Bomber Model As for bass, pickerel.
