I'm convinced, crankbaits are good.

I've never been a big believer in crankbaits until yesterday. For
whatever reason I've never had any luck with them. Probably because I
used to fish in florida where it's too weedy. Anyway yesterday I was
fishing a rocky creek in north alabama. I was wade fishing under a
bridge, the water was 3-4 foot deep. Just for the hell of it I decided
I was going to try an experiment. I tried using different baits each
time I waded across the stream, under the bridge. I was casting
upstream on all my casts. I tried using a live creek minnow, a slider,
an inline spinner, a spinnerbait, a shad rap, and a rebel crawdad.
Here are my totals:

Live creek minnow - 0
Slider - 1
Inline spinner - 0
Spinnerbait - 0
Shad rap - around 7
Rebel Crawdad - around 10

As you can see the crankbaits were WAY better. I'm a believer now!

Can anyone suggest some other tiny, shallow running crankbaits?

Chuck.
