Couple hundred crank pulling crappie fishermen....several million bass fishermen.

One thing you can say about Arkie is that they have listened to the crank bait fisherman, sure hope that clown behind thar chrome clown don't come in the package too!!!!😨

Reason I started painting my own.

Yeh.....and they dont even eat the bass

I was thinking the same thing,until last weekend.I went to grizzly jigs and bought some arkies and fished them the next day with no luck.started the day with 5 arkies,2 bandits,1 strike king and was catching fish on the strike kind and bandits.after 2 hrs and not a fish on the arkies I changed to all bandits and did pretty good,22 keeper Crappie and over 20 catfish.when I got home I went to bandits website and counted the colors they still made,they make over 70 colors and the bandits t depth chart is dead on when I see fish at a depth and go by the chart it usually works JMHO

Test it again Blueball, I haven't had any probs with the Arkie's catching fesh. Sometimes one bait outcatches everything else no matter what it is. I got Strike Kings, Bandits, Wiggly Warts, and Arkie's, all are part of the arsenal and all catch fish, some times the wiggle warts puts everyone to shame!!!!

1 boat can be pulling pink bandits and wearing them out and nothing on chartreuse. Guys in next boat will be catching them on chartreuse and zilch on pink. Like jig colors. what one guy likes the other guy can't catch a fish on. also one day pink is the one, next day black bubblegum and vice versa.

Oh ,I'm not giving up,but I don't think the arkies are as good in my opinion.they would have to have more of an offering depth wise.usually when I start cranking each year I put 200 on one side and 300 on the other and the ones that do the best are the one that I run,I believe the wiggle difference between the two is what makes the difference.I have bandits,strike kings,wiggle warts,rebels,and wall bass pro ones and out of all of them the arkies were the only ones I didn't catch a fish the first trip out,lol
