Build Your Own Baits Crankbaits @ Clinton Lake, IL 8/21/2011

[BYOB Fishing]

I had a great day last Sunday fishing for a few hours up at Clinton Lake, IL using the Build Your Own Baits version of the bluegill crankbait. Water temp was 83.6, air temp was mid-80s. I caught 10 nice bass, with the largest being 3lb-12oz. I was cranking the bait right next to rip rap. Here are a few shots of the larger ones...

Its the shallow diver, runs about 2'. It's easy to fish like that, because if it gets hung up, you can retrieve it fairly easily.
