Very small Arkie crank bait in I found in my shop

[Tracker123]

Found this in my shop digging around looking for something:



I haven't a clue where I got it. I think someone gave it to me, not sure. It's small at 1 3/4", the color is CM-2 Blackshiner. I thought this bait very interesting and haven't seen anyone post about them.

Nice....bet it will catch also.....I was fishing a crank bait early Saturday morning for bass....something hit it and when I got it to the boat it turned out to be a sac.....got off just as I was about to lift it in.....

Here it is.....CM must mean crank bait-minnow....

I've been successful tight lining small Arkie cranks off the front of the boat. Have caught sacs when they weren't hitting jigs. Rigged just like a tight lined jig at different depths until I found the pattern.

Not joking. They sell a few Arkie small crank baits and rattle trap type baits at a lot of Walmarts.

We use the 220' and 350 series mainly to pull or push for crappie. The one you have is probably best suited for casting with a ultra light spinning rod and slow retrieve.

"D" is right. Wal-Mart in Plaquemine has them for sure. I've got that one and the gold/blk version as well. Caught fish on both but I'm not a big crank bait fisherman even though my box has its own drawer full of them! You know what they say about baits catching fishermen..... Guilty!

I guess I got caught then.....but I do catch crappie with them. Here is one box full out of three....lol....box holds 120.
I love Arkie 350's

I've used those while pushing cranks. Caught a few on it.
