More on the Crankster MR...
This unparalleled castability in a crankbait applies to overhead casts as well as underhand pitching of the Crankster into tight spots with precision accuracy. When pitching underhand within heavy cover situations, the dense tungsten bead rests in the very tail tip of the Crankster as it dangles below your rod tip. This makes it as easy to pitch and as accurate to place as a flipping jig.
It's this heavy bead inside that gives the Crankster its attractive rattle that can be heard for long distances underwater. With this dense bead bouncing off the walls inside the Crankster, the decibel level is off the charts. No other crankbait knocks quite like this.
The extended lip design, a unique feature of SEBILE lures, edges the lip out away from the nose of the lure, and that helps the lure react instantly.
That unique short square lip is designed to deflect sharply, shooting the Crankster wide to the side whenever it hits an underwater obstruction such as a rock, stump, brush or tough weed stalks. The rotund and bulbous body makes it more buoyant than most crankbaits too, and that buoyancy is also what makes the Crankster react so responsively.
The Crankster avoids most snags. As you watch it, you'll see the Crankster shoot way out to the side away from anything it hits, then quickly recovering and getting back on track. In especially troublesome spots, if it has no alternative but to come up and over the top of a snag, then it will roll over onto its back to do so. Watch and you'll see the lure go belly up as it rolls over the obstruction. That swings the hooks on top of the lure momentarily until it comes through cleanly and rights itself again.
There's definitely a knack to ripping the rod tip and therefore the lure sharply the exact instant whenever you feel it bounce against anything. That gets it ricocheting off the junk before it has a chance to bog down in it. Practice makes perfect, but once you become adept at this tactic, you'll be amazed how snagless the Crankster can be. It's hard work to fish this way, but rewarding.
The brawny Crankster MR 65 may be used with heavier line and a heavier rod in the heaviest cover. The Crankster MR 55 is ideal to bounce around docks, pilings and more moderate cover. The Crankster MR 45 and 35 give you the same features, functions and benefits when using lighter gear in downsized fishing situations.
