In part 2 of our in-depth look at fishing lures, we are going to talk about crankbaits. Crankbaits are part of a broad family of lures called plugs. Plugs are generally floating lures made out of wood or plastic. They can be long and slender such as minnows and rapalas, or fatter bodied like crankbaits or divers. Basically, though, the idea is a floating lure that imitates baitfish or prey (such as frogs), features 2 or more treble hooks, and can dive down based on the weight of the lure.<\/p>\n
