Snookonfly Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Anyone caught any bigs on the Crankdown herrings? It looks sick! Thought there might be some 3:16 gurus out there who have some input. StriperAddict 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassbass Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 No big ones only a couple 5 to 6 pound fish. You can keep,your rod tip up and wake the bait, or lower it a little and keep it shallow, or lower it more or stick it down in the water and it will crank deeper. It will burn or swim very slow just enough to make the back section move side to side. willsochill and Snookonfly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really started to figure out a pattern when our alewives we’re leaving the fall in early fall. Caught a couple 5s two days before this on a shad colored Biggfeast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snookonfly Posted February 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 Sounds like something you could replicate every year. Love when I get something dialed like that. Looking forward to hearing about more bigs this fall! Mossypumpkin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossypumpkin Posted February 18, 2020 Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 It will get tossed a lot this spring. Sadly I’ve moved so it’s back to the drawing board for me this spring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve also C+R a few big NP speed cranking the herring in Aug, awesome bait. Snookonfly, Skeeter102, bigpoppabass and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
