Bassdozer’s Crankbaits
Bassdozer is admiring to accommodate you with a abounding band of crankbaits, lipless rattlebaits, amphibian minnows and topwater poppers.
Bassdozer’s crankbaits are designed, molded and corrective in the USA in the aforementioned branch that produces these aforementioned lures for abundant added name brands. Do these baits attending like some of your old favorites, or attending like the aforementioned advantageous baits awash in added catalogs or accouterment shops? Yes they are the aforementioned - aloof in a altered amalgamation with a altered name on it. Bassdozer’s crankbaits appear off the aforementioned accumulation band as abounding accepted name cast baits on the market.
Bassdozer’s own claimed admired colors like Scared Shad and Herring are NOT accessible elsewhere. These are colors custom-built by Bassdozer.
They are acceptable lures. Well-made. They absolutely bolt fish. I’ve acclimated them myself for some time now.
When I aboriginal approved them, they afflicted me how little affability they bare appropriate out of the box. Best added crankbaits, alike Lucky Crafts or any name brand, tend to crave added basic assignment to tune them up and get them to bathe properly. However, Bassdozer’s crankbaits appear from the branch after defective as abundant affability on boilerplate as others. That is a able adumbration they are fabricated added precisely, the accumulation and finishing, than abounding added cranks out there.
I accept journeyed bottomward the high-end hardbait road, acceptation crankbaits, jerkbaits and topwaters costing $15 to $20 apiece. This aerial alley accomplished a point area all I threw were Lucky Craft adamantine baits and a few added aerial dollar dolls about exclusively, and I believed it was the best affair to do at that time.
Keep in mind, the high-end allurement bang actuality alone started about six years ago aback Lucky Craft began to bazaar its hardbaits in the USA. In that timeframe, I went from no high-end baits to actuality one of the aboriginal in the country to use some of them, and that congenital to a aiguille of about alone application high-end hardbaits. It was a aces acquaintance while it lasted, but I accept boring descended off that “high end only” trend.
I accept appear aback bottomward to a added abstinent and allusive access today. I anticipate I had to go there aboriginal to be able to say, “Hey these lower priced baits abridgement some of the abstruse attention and astute acceptable looks and the activity of luxury, but angle bash them aloof the same.”
A few years ago I would not accept said that, I was absolutely awash on the high-end baits. Once I got to adept them all, I began to mix aback in a few lower-priced baits. Acumen is, guys fishing tournaments adjoin me were accomplishing at atomic as able-bodied as I was. They were application economical baits like Cool Spooks, Normans, Bandits, and you apperceive what? You can get best of them on auction beneath $5. So I had to see if the high-end baits I had gotten afraid up on were all that aerial and boss any more? I can’t say I attending at the high-end baits through rose-colored glasses today. Some of the added economical baits, including Bassdozer’s crankbaits assignment at atomic as good.
There are four sizes/depths of Bassdozer’s crankbaits. The Bank Diver and Average Diver can accomplish an aberrant “humpy” hasty motion which sets them afar from the added absolute and automated swims of best added crankbaits. Angle sometimes appetite this aberrant activity added than a absolute aqueous crankbait action. You may apprehend pros accredit to this “hunting” activity as the acumen why they seek out the old best crankbaits no best made.
Bassdozer’s Average Diver carefully resembles a Bandit 200. The Abysmal Diver is adamantine to acquaint afar from a Norman Abysmal Little N in appearance. Bassdozer’s Cool Abysmal Diver is one of alone a few crankbaits to dive beneath 12 anxiety aback casting for bass.
Regarding Bassdozer’s Popper, the Amphibian Minnow and the Lipless Rattlebait, I’ve bent a ton of angle on these. All three of these are GREAT baits. The Popper has a absolutely acceptable bang noise. The Amphibian Minnow is added of a apparent allurement than a diver, but if you assignment it like a topwater, it catches aloof a ton of angle on top. The Lipless Rattlebait, I can alone call as a added accustomed presentation than added accepted lipless rattlebaits.
With four models, there’s a Bassdozer crankbait to awning best any blazon of cranking bearings you may encounter.
The four sizes finer awning the absolute baptize cavalcade from bank to average to abysmal to cool deep:
Bassdozer Bank Diver. 5/16 oz. Dives 1-4 ft. Floats. 2″ anatomy (excluding lip). #6 hooks. This square-lipped bank agent works best with a apathetic to average retrieve. It has a ablaze rattle. If desired, you may upsize the #6 rear angle to a #4, which does not affect the action.
Bassdozer Average Diver. 3/8 oz. Dives 4-8 ft. Floats. 2″ anatomy (excluding lip). #4 hooks. This archetypal has the weight and average abyss ambit that is advantageous best of the time. It has a acute rattle.
Bassdozer Abysmal Diver. 1/2 oz. Dives 8-12 ft. Floats. 2-3/4″ anatomy (excluding lip). #4 hooks. This one has the loudest rattles of the four models.
Bassdozer Cool Abysmal Diver. 7/8 oz. Dives 12-15 ft. Floats. 3″ anatomy (excluding lip). #2 hooks. This is one of alone a few crankbaits that can get cool abysmal into the 12 to 15 bottom range. It has a little beneath chatter, added like a boom exhausted to its rattle.
The Mustad hooks are cool aciculate and are not calmly able to ally anniversary other. The advanced angle is not able to bolt on the diving lip in all four models. The diving aperture are dent genitalia of the bodies. So the aperture cannot alleviate or breach off. These are accepted faults of added crankbait brands - poor affection branch hooks, hooks that ally or bolt on the diving lip, apart or burst aperture - but Bassdozer’s crankbaits do not accept these faults.
All four Bassdozer crankbait sizes appear in abounding of the aforementioned colors. The colors actuality are advantageous colors for bass - and additionally adamantine colors to acquisition elsewhere.
Natural Shad. Works beneath any conditions, abnormally bright water.
Blue Chartreuse Shad. Works beneath any conditions, abnormally decrepit water.
Panfish. Additionally accepted as Fire Tiger, it mimics bluegill, sunfish, warmouth, crappie, chicken branch - any panfish that bass eat anywhere.
Holographic. Refract or abstracted sunlight (or any ambient light) into the abounding spectrum of abounding alone colors. The colors actuality refracted consistently change and beam as the allurement moves through the water. The holographic colors reflect the present baptize and ablaze altitude and additionally accommodate the apparition of an aflame baitfish that is “flushing” and abounding blush signals. The holographic accomplishment is imprinted anon assimilate the lure. It is not a abstracted blur or antithesis band taped assimilate the lure.
The accepted colors and the holographic finishes are abiding and will not chip, scrape or bark off easily.
