Latest News April Tip Of The Month Saturday, April 06, 2013 Crankbaits and baitcasting gear go together like taters and gravy, but don't rule out spinning tackle as a valuable tool for spring crankbaiting. Some pro anglers turns to spinning tackle when the water is clear and long cast with small crankbaits are required. Using a spinning outfit makes casting small, lightweight baits into the wind much easier. The reason are simple: Spinning reels accommodate 8 and 10 pound line, and the line comes off the spool easier and backlash free. In addition, a crankbait with a tight wiggle has a better action and runs a little deeper when fished on smaller diameter line. Heavier line restricts the action, resulting in fewer strikes. Go for a 7-foot All Pro Rod with a medium or medium-light action; it can absorb the shock of a hard pulling big fish. Pair the All Pro Rod with a medium or large spinning reel with a big spool, and you'll reduce line twist woes.
