Crankbaits 101

A crankbait is a hard body fishing lure with a plastic or metal lip that forces it to swim down in the water with a wiggle action, usually designed to imitate wounded or fleeing baitfish. Crankbaits are arguably the most iconic bass fishing hard bait of all time, and there are tons of options to back that up! The crankbait was invented in 1915 with the original being called the “creek chub wiggler” developed by the Creek Chub Bait Company. In 1936 Lauri Rapala created his own version which became THE minnow-style lure which completely revolutionized the swimming bait industry. Rapala crankbaits went on to make high-quality wobbling crankbaits while other companies like “Big O” introduced balsa wood crankbaits to the market in the 1960s.

How To Fish Crankbaits:

Crankbait Type Best Water Conditions How to Fish It Popular Model

Shallow Diving Crankbaits Shallow water (1–6 ft), around rocks, wood, and banks Steady retrieve with occasional pauses; deflect off cover to trigger reaction strikes Rapala Shallow Shad Rap
Deep Diving Crankbaits Deep water (10–25+ ft), offshore structure, ledges, drop-offs Long cast, retrieve steadily with rod tip down to maintain depth; pause occasionally to trigger bites Strike King 6XD
Square Bill Crankbaits Shallow, cover-heavy areas (wood, docks, grass), stained or muddy water Slow to moderate retrieve; deflect bait off cover to provoke reaction strikes Strike King KVD Square Bill
Floating Crankbaits Calm or clear shallow water, topwater-like presentations Retrieve steadily; can pause to let it float up, mimicking injured baitfish Rapala Original Floater
Suspending Crankbaits Cold water or pressured fish in clear conditions Retrieve with pauses; bait hovers in place, making fish strike on the pause Smithwick Suspending Rogue
Sinking Crankbaits Deeper water, vertical structure, or when fish are holding low Let bait sink to desired depth, then retrieve or count down and work at depth Rapala CountDown
Flat Crankbaits Cold water, clear to moderately stained water, pressured fish Steady slow retrieve; subtle wobble works best for finicky fish Berkley Frittside
Round Body Crankbaits Open water, clear conditions, general-purpose fishing at various depths Medium to steady retrieve; wider wobble works well for covering water Rapala Original Floater

Best Crankbait Brands

There are a few brands that over time have dominated, innovated, and grown the number of crankbaits for sale to an almost infinite number. From original floating crankbaits to modern advances with elite wobble action the following brands are some of the best in the crankbait market.

Rapala

If you come across a list talking about the best brands and it doesn’t mention Rapala crankbaits, you should probably turn around. With the original floating minnow, Rapala quickly bust into the crankbait game with the Rapala Shad Rap, Rapala Rippin Rap, and the Rapala OG Tiny Deep series. This is a versatile line up of crankbaits of various sizes, and can catch fish in any situation.

Strike King’s designs are ultra specific to performance, if it is depth, action, style, Strike Kings crankbaits will consistently move exactly how you want them too.

Storm Lures

Not one of the flashy brands, but a brand that knows how to catch fish, Storm Lures crankbaits focus on realistic action, dependable performance, and strong vibrations in the water. The Storm crankbaits are designed to make a strong wobble action and heavy vibrations in the water which consistently triggers strikes. These are incredibly durable crankbaits that can catch fish even on the toughest days. I remember one time I was fishing for Pike, I hadn’t caught anything all day, I downsized to a Storm Original Hot ‘N Tot and ended up catching double digit fish! Another one of their most popular models is the Storm Wiggle Wart Crankbait.

Crankbait FAQs

When should I use a crankbait?

Use crankbaits when fish are holding at specific depths you can reach with the lure, such as near structure or drop-offs. Match the bait’s diving depth to the water column where fish are likely feeding, and consider weather and water temperature, crankbaits often excel when fish are moving and water temperatures are moderate.

How do I fish a crankbait effectively?

Cast the crankbait and use a steady retrieve, varying speed until fish respond. Let the bait deflect off structure like rocks, wood, or docks, this interrupted action often triggers strikes. Sometimes a “crank–pause–crank” retrieve works best, especially when fish are less aggressive.

Why isn’t my crankbait diving to the correct depth?

A crankbait may not reach its rated depth if you’re using the wrong line type or weight. For example, braid or lighter monofilament can reduce how deep a bait runs compared to fluorocarbon, which sinks and helps the lure dive deeper. Adjust your line choice or weight to better match the depth you’re targeting.
