which lure?

[breamiton]

Hi Fellas,

I have a question i would like to buy some fat minnows for bream and was wondering which to buy i have narrowed it down to 3, cranka , chubby or berkley fat dog what would you guys get if you had the choice ?

cheers

Out of those, the chubby is my pick.. I've been catching some elbow slapper whiting on a deep diver alongside the bream... Flatties, grunter and cod too.

[Ca11um]

in WA the fat dog is best.
in TAS, SA and VIC the cranka is best.
in QLD the chubby is best.
in different places different things work well.
but all lures will catch fish in any area.
pick a lure u will be confident with so u will be persistent enough to catch bream.
the fat dog is cheaper so it wont matter as much wen u are starting out if u lose a few lures, and it has owner components.

cheers, BTF

Was there a reason you left out Atomic Crank 38 from the options? They seem to get very good reviews here.

Ayu cranka shad for me

[keenothebream]

buy all 3 and decide which one you want to buy more of

[Bobby Bass]

They are all good, like said buy all three.

I know you didnt mention Atomic cranks but they cant be left out.

Im a massive fan of the Atomic 38 cranks, I do throw chubbies alot too.
It depends on the situation but the coulors I like are muddy prawn, Ayu and ghost gill (atomic) Big fan of the Brown shrimp Jackall.

The mediums in the atomics are awesome for shallow rocky banks when the wind is blowing or you can fish the deep ones and bang off the rocks. That can be a great retrieve.


Good luck with it all.

Have a look at our small Crankbait offering the Hickory MDR & Hickory SR both have Mag-drive and cast a mile for their size.

Hi Mark,

I like the hickory. Do you think one day in the future they might make a bigger version?

i use Eco Gear SX40 but what you have narrowed it down to i would choose the Chubby

[forsterfisho]

The berkley fat crank bait lure is soon becoming the lure I throw when I dont want to lose an exspensive one.....they catch fish but they arent a real constant performer, but for the price who can complain?

I have some cranka cranks, but as they are still sitting in the boxes...my verdict is out.

I'd reccomend chubbies by far, they cast well, great action...and they account for some great fish.

i'd go a chubby, got such a good rep and they are an awesome lure, but i dont know about the others, from what ive heard on here they seem great
