    @drako131 ….i switched to BRAIDED (50LB power pro) although it can snap, esp after wear and tear…its NOTHING line mono which will snap very easily..esp when casting a heavier (5/8 oz) lipless crank….i have the fancy baitcasters…(ie Shimano, Revo, btw) the MOST important lesson I learned is to reset and re-tie AFTER EVERY CATCH…….and forget mono less than 14LBs…unless you’re going for Trout

    @akrivosdiavolos73 prob need a better knot like palomar knott or a better test line ima get a bait caster for 70$ on ebay found out how to use a bait caster gonna use 14-20 lb line

    whoever says a crank bait goes under more if you reel slow then they are fucking retarded real faster and it goes deeper

    @shlockg13 Hmm… tested it. Turns out you’re still wrong. In general, the faster you retrieve a crankbait, the deeper it will run. The plane of the bill draws it deeper as you go faster – simple fluid dynamics.

    @iTzMeThoDz keep it up. try looking for some finesse baits and presentations. Watch the other fisherman and do something different, Unless they r catching them then dupliate wht they r doing. Rip-n-Lips

    @redbuttedmonkey do some real examination of ur crankbait lures when u fish if u crank slow the more pressure that is put on the bill so it goes deeper and when u reel fast it pulls the bait up. Ask any pro (Fritts, and Mcabee) both say the same thing. Learn to fish before u make stupid comments

  11. redbuttedmonkey says:

    @shlockg13 Wrong.

  12. shlockg13 says:

    @greyfoxpwnz wrong the slower u go the deeper it goes physics

    You should never lob-cast when using a baitcaster.

  20. greyfoxpwnz says:

    @ak74u2 Its a crank bait its suppose to do that when you stop reeling the bill makes it go under faster you reel deeper it goes

  21. greyfoxpwnz says:

    @iTzzEuphoriaaaaaa probably the biggest you caught and you feel like you can catch the shit out of them lol

  22. Granderson2808 says:

    what si that really long worm called i need them for larg mouth

  23. l337gr33k says:

    try using a smaller diameter line. the thinner the line the lower your bait will go. too small though and it will tangle
