Default I'm convinced, crankbaits are good.

Fish the Mann's Baby 1- where you would fish a buzzbait.

Great small crankbaits include several in the Bagley's line. But these are
wood baits so you need to know how to care for them. Carry clear fingernail
polish to seal any light cracks in the finish. Makes a good sealant around
the bill and hook eyes. For more severe damage, use superglue. You will
bounce one off of rock or wood and damage it. Take it off and lay it in the
sun. When good and dry seal it with superglue and give it a couple coats of
clear fingernail polish when dry. You can fish a bait in just a few minutes
after putting fingernail polish on in the summer as it dries fast. I have
quite the selection of little Bagley's. I really like the craw and Bitty
B's. But I have a bunch and few dealers carry them all.

When you get a crankbait that the front hook has worn a groove in the sides.
A couple coats of clear fingernail polish will fill them and prevent the
hooks from wearing all the way thru. Of course, you need to really fish a
crankbait a lot to usually see this kind of wear.
