Going to buy 20 of them to start with to pull at Sardis after the spawn. What size? What colors? How many of each color would you buy to round out to 20. Think grizzly has them for 4.99. Is that the best place to get them? I'm going with the most popular colors from this post thanks.

bandit 300's....I would get some pink, black , mistake, and something with chrome if only getting 20 to start with
Orange Crush is good....Pink Silver Sparkle is good and Hot Pink....Black works real good at times also. I sent you a PM
Black Bubblegum is a must for me and Sardis Gold. 300s are good to go.
I have a question what makes this better than trolling with jigs? I have never tried cranks but would like some opinions
Cover more ground for one thing and another is that in the hot part of the summer you can sit under a brella trolling about 2 MPH and be very comfortable.
Can you not still troll jigs the same way?
Sure, 2 treble hooks verses single jig hook tho. Most folks trolling jigs (longlining) pull around 1 MPH
Ok. Thanks makes since. Im open to new things and it sounds fun. By the way you should be a very happy dad.
Thanks, her mom and I are very proud of her.Quote:

Try the clearance or specials page on the Bandit website. They have them cheap at times. I get mine custom painted by Maachu on the Mississippi board if they don't offer the colors I want. I've bought baits from Bandit for 3.00 bucks there, and they usually have several good colors and sizes available.

Buy 20 and get ready to realize you need about 200 more! Start with Black, Pink, some form of Chart, and Orange Crush. 5 of each, and invest in a good, large storage box that keeps them from getting into a knot of hooks. I bought some customs from Macchu(sp) as well, and they look awesome. If you find 300's for sale, even if they are a bad color, buy em up. Some of the guys that paint em will hook you up with some neat color combos.
Thanks for all y'all's feedback. G is going to come by the house and give me the low down on this pulling cranks business. I longline jigs and had just started spider rigging when I had eye problems so I am ready to get back in the game. Been doing most of my fishing with my two man boat so I'm ready to get my big boat ready and hit Sardis.

Good luck, and go on and get the paperwork in line to take out a second mortgage against the house to feed this growing addiction... It's a blast, but it sho aint cheap!
My go to on sardis was always the spring craw yellow and spring craw red.
I catch a bunch of fish at Sardis on the Translucent Craw.

Got to have fun some how so I guess crappie fishing is as good as it gets. I use to chase them green carp in my earlier years. But I like crappie fishing lots better.Quote:
