Cranka depth

grichards · #1 12-06-2011, 07:09 AM

Just curious as to how deep the Cranka HB Shad dives too? I bought a few today that have a rather small bib on them so im assuming a depth to 1Metre. Can 1 of the Cranka boys help on this please? Cheers Gav.
BTW I bought a Beer Bottle, Pink Bits and lastly a Olive Prawn. I think the O/P will do well here in Lake Macquarie as most big bream are taking the greener coloured lures. Well mine anyhow,lol. Cheers again.

Hey mate

Diving depths of the Cranka crank should dive down to around 1 metre as you said mate, Olive prawn works well in dirty water, Pink bitts is also good on clear flats

Haven't tried the beer bottle, but i'm sure that'll work good too!

Edit: I'm with Dion, assuming you mean the crank because of the colours.

Hi mate if you mean the shad, it gets down to around 1.5m. If your talking about the crank (which I think you may be when your talking about the colours) it gets down around the 1m mark.

Pink bits is a killer on the flats, my favourite actually altho I got some nice fish the other day on olive prawn!

FYI. olive green in the crank has been working a treat of late in the lake.
Although most colours have been catching. Interested in your feed back!

Thanks all you beat me to the answer again!

FYI:
CRANK will pull down to a max of about 1.2m on long 2-3lb leaders
Shad will pull down to a max of about 1.6m on long 2-3lb leaders

Cheers

Thanks Steersy. I'll be running these lures on 3lb fluoro straight thru. So a little bit more depth will help. Cheers Gav.
