Good way to end this series!!! 👍🏻 Looking forward to other series you will be doing!!! Stay Safe & God Bless!!!

[@patrickmahoney3479]

Great tips!

[@raymurski318]

Great series Mike. I will add a observation I had while fishing with cranks. Loosen the drag. Once you hook the fish, then tighten it up to bring in the fish. Thanks again for putting this out. Your enthusiast nature shows up in these videos.

[@iwrestledabassonce]

Keep up the good work bud! 👏

[@larrymoss9954]

Thank you Dude, good fishermen have great imaginations. Visualize what you are making your lure do.

[@jasonrutherfordbassfishing]

I personally like using glass crank rods, it seems to work really well for shock absorption and keeping those small trebles pinned.

[@wilmerpruitt6324]

Excellent presentation

[@bobjohnston5527]

I use 7 foot Quantum smoke rod with micro line guides, Quantum smoke S3 baitcaster with 7.3:1. I have 10lbs and 14lbs mono on my other reel. It is a great casting rod for crankbaits. Great information 👍

[@dgar1010]

Like your videos dude. You get into it !

[@eliaslara3251]

I had a lot of fun fishing my micro crank bait today but, i snagged my nice deep diving crank bait. Thank you Ike !

[@theamerican7131]

[@danham3344]

Hey from the mts of Upper NorCal.

[@rodcashman4793]

Great information IKE. Thank you for sharing great series 😀 👍

[@FanOfLiberty1776]

Great series. I would like more of this type on different baits. 👍👍

[@terrytresemer2864]

Great content, if I can add the same forgiveness is needed for top waters.

[@williamtomlin9983]

The info was excellent it will help me alot

[@bobjohnston5527]

I use graphite million hi -strain 7 foot med Quantum smoke rod with micro line and Quantum smoke S3 baitcaster with Sufix siege mono 10lbs and 14lbs on my other reel

[@Cornelius798]

Nice rod & reel combo.

[@bobjohnston5527]

@@Cornelius798 Thank you. The reel weight only 6.9 oz. The rod is very light. I started using a baitcaster two years ago. I been using a Shimano spinning combo all my life. Since 96 I have a squash disk in my lower back and using the spinning combo I had to take breaks every half hour. Now I don't have to take as many breaks using the baitcaster

[@chrismash1792]

This is such an informative series. Would love to see you do this on more baits!

[@thejonath]

Pretty sure nobody is gonna answer but giving it a shot : does a 2 piece work to get the right action? Thinking of grabbing a medium glass rod

[@mikeantes9597]

Spoons and in line spinners have trebles do I need a special rod for those also ?

[@edwardpease541]

How long does it take a deep diver to get to max depth?

[@fallingironreks83]

Maybe just a bad batch but 3 I’ve bought have snap the tips or guides come loose. I gave up on them.

[@michaelgibson5952]

You're great ,you're rods not so much. Used 2 times eye came out.
