I have a couple Rapala broken backs that have a big lip on them that are for 8-12 foot and have caught fish on them as well. Big thing is the depth they run at, colors and do they run true

DD....Rattletraps work good also.....I have about 50 of them now. Some of my larger cranks from my bass fishing days work good also.

I've got a couple of SMALL ones in my box. I don't know how far to put them back for certain depths so I put them on my down rods up front

I really like this box that creekslick uses....it would keep them from getting tangled up. Sometimes in the 360 Plano boxes that I use when you put two or three cranks in a compartment they can get hooked up pretty good, Lol.

Leave it to a tight A$$ banker to worry about a $40 box to store $500 worth of crankbaits :D:D

Besides I caught them on sale at bass pro during a summer clearance for $24 each :p

Leave it to a tycoon like Slab to pay full retail for 100 crankbaits and bargain shop for the box to put 'em in. Pffffft.

Good one WB but actually most all of those baits were bought on ebay over the past three years. Some guy had a shop he was selling out and was selling baits in lots of six of the same pattern for $18 buy it now and I just happened to stumble across it just after he posted them and bought several.

LOL G-3 LOL. I ain't sure I'd of tolt that on myself, but LOL.

'Ats right Slabo, careful who you poke around here, you just might draw back a nub.

Yeah, I had heard through the grapevine you'd had a little hookup for a while. Pretty easy to see from your pics which are your favorite colors too. I kind of regret selling off all those bandits I bought up last year. Once you get into it, it's kind of like crack. Just can't have enough of 'em. I think I had an average of something like $2.10 in all of 'em. Oh well.
