Title: Tried out my new crank baits...
Post by: Hidehunter on April 21, 2012, 01:30:42 PM
Got out for a while yesterday since the weather was beautiful and they are calling for snow Monday.  Wanted to put my new crankbaits through a test run before I sold them.  Seen 6 muskies but they were all lazy and wouldnt eat.  They would just lazily follow the crank in and then fade off.  Real tickled with how the new baits look and work though.  My buddy was with me and he did catch a hawg of a bass on one of the crappie colored ones.  Didnt weigh or measure her but she was a nice one.

We still have some that hasnt dropped their eggs but I believe most already have.  We have had some really warm weather here lately.  Water temp yesterday was 65 degrees.  Thats all getting ready to change because they are calling for up to a foot of snow for first of the week  :shock2:  Was up to 76 degrees outside yesterday.
