This is why Brian is one of my favorite guys to watch. No bs, don’t go buying this or that, just gets his message across and cuts out the crap.
Thanks for the tips!!
Bruhh real shit man just explain what he loves passion for fishing that's how I feel. At the end of the day a 50 cent lure can catch monsters and lots of fish depends on fish and just finding them
B - I write the depth on the bait's belly with a fine-tip marker. Helps to remember. And I add an "S" if it's a suspending bait. An S10 is a bait that dives to 10' and suspends.
That’s great especially if you are unfamiliar with the bait
Same 👏👏
I never thought of that 💡! I've been putting them back in the box but it takes up way too much space in my boxes. Gotta do this
Great idea i what’s tape the color and depth from the packaging in the tackle box where that bait goes but this is a much better idea
Brilliant
You really keep it real and don’t try to sell us any BS. I love that about you brother
thank you for explaining the retrieve.! I don't ever see anyone take the time to explain it for beginners
Write on my man!
This was , far and away, the best cranking video I've seen. Blat is always so straight to the point, no bs, and warns of any pitfalls. Love it.
You are the real one and stuff so the fish can have time to eat it too
You are spot on about locations being tougher to catch em on squarebill. I can't get em to bite on squarebill in any of the rivers around me. They'll wear out top water lures and soft plastics but they rarely hit my squarebills unless I'm fishing lakes or ponds.
Awesome mate , i use square bills in both fresh and salt here in Australia. Love feeling them bouncing through the timber etc. 😊
Thanks for the advice BLat! I smell a win coming on tour this year!
You got this, your fans are behind you! We have faith in you
that was amazingly informative. thank you
That was great!!! I really get the most out of the on the water videos like this and you describe everything your doing well. Do more like this!
Wonderful advice on a square bill Brian I’ll keep in mind the three colors you mentioned love you videos 👊🏻👍🏻
I’ve been throwing a squarebill on straight braid and have been killing em lol. I get running a leader is more ideal but it’s been working great so haven’t changed to using a leader or straight fluoro/mono just yet.
TNX for the good tips, Brian !!!
Great info. Best part everytime is "Just use what you got, you don't even know what you are doing yet," LOL
Best instructional crankbait video I’ve seen in my 34 yrs , thanks B Latt big fan from NC here
You are such a great (terrific) teacher. I wish you and youtube were around when I was first learning to bass fish. I'm watching all your vids because there's always something more to learn not to mention a refresher course never hurts anyone at my age.
Jim
Thank for making it simple because it easy to get to evolved in what colors to throw so like I said thanks for making it plain.
Awesome video Brian! Going crankin this weekend.
Simple is good, thanks for breaking it down for me. I'm gonna use your knowledge the rest of the time I'm fishing for smallies in Canada!
This mans channel is a hidden gem. Salute the knowlegde and hussle
Perfect. Was looking for the speed/techniques for how to reel a squarebill. That and so much more here. This boosts my confidence in using a squarebill. Thank you!
B Lat!!! Way to be class act man. It gets so old hearing people cram products down your throat. Very rarely do dudes give guys the Juice with out making them think they have to have certain gear or it won’t work.
Good info Blat, Thanks a lot
Fantastic instruction
And they knock the heck out of it when hitting too.
On getting them off logs and snags. It’s really a nice presentation since they run shallow and you rarely have to break one off.
Great video as always!
Very cool smooth brother with good advice. Thanks for keeping it real.👍
Awesome video for everyone to learn new techniques to something they may not already know, I learned a few pointers too. Also enjoyed the freedom seeds being sent in the background lol. Thanks man
great information cranking is my weakest link i built setup this year just for deep cranking a favorite cranking rod and a abu revo beast x hopefully i do well this year !
Great video. I learned what you mean about overshooting on depth. I fish from the bank in lakes that are max depth 6’. Realistically with inexperience using a baitcaster and having to cast in tight quarters more than likely I’m only fishing in like 2-4’ deep. I bought two squarebills in that 1-3’ and nothing. Bought one more thar dives 3-6’ took it out, switched to 12 lb test from 15 and third cast had one. I was able to feel the bottom and they do really back out of hang ups. Retrieve, pause, retrieve pause sweep. Fun way to fish.
Thanks bro for all the videos
Love the how to's B Lat.
Hey Brian just wanted to say thanks for your videos. I recently started bass fishing again after a long time of not fishing. Things sure are different. I’ve based a lot of what I do from your techniques and set ups. I’ve been catching them also! Keep doing your thing brother, PLEASE!!
Thanks for the tips B Lat & Happy Father’s Day to you-Salute
Best fisherman on youtube! Thanks for all these awesome tips. My favorite thing to do now that I'm back into Bass fishing is to go to one of your videos on how to use a bait ive never used and then go catch something on it. I've always wondered how to fish these and I cant wait to get out on the water and try it out. Thanks again!
Thanks Brian
nice! your vids and ability to get down to it, discussing the features & things to be aware of.
Thx a bunch! def subscribed...
Great info. Thanks for sharing great video 📹 👍
great video Brian !
Man I really appreciate you making these kind of videos. I love the in depth explanation because it helps me know the why. You also are great on camera not dry at all, very easy to watch the full video. You saying no braid and not saying why is killing me though 😆. Keep up the awesome work
I’ve learn so much from watching your video I been catching way more fish
Awesome video. I barley follow any pro fisherman, but b lat, keeps it real, good video and thanks for the info. I caught my self doing some of the things yout saying to do. But those few extra tips could help me up my game with the crankbaits
Very informative 👍👍
I like to use an older (90s) Abu Ambassadeur for cranking, 5.3:1 gearing. The smaller 4600C3 Ambassadeurs are my favorite for crankbaits. Rugged and simple, I don't think I'd ever be able to wear one out.
Thanks again B-Lat.
Love the videos man. I use a square bill crank bait a lot up here in Massachusetts. I find I get alot of strikes like u said stop and go but up here I find if you let the bait kinda float to the top when you stop and then start they hit em. Good luck the rest of the season.
Hey Brain just wanted to say awesome video great job.
Big ups Dr.Latimer
Awesome video!
Great video cranking is a technique I would love to learn more about, I have thrown some square bills and lipless before I’ve found with some crank baits my hook up ratio tends to be better with a medium power.
Sweet! I just got one of these. I'm normally a fly fishermen, but I've been getting into gear fishing for bass. The crankbait I got showed up on the side of my float tube one day when I had my local lake all to myself.
I've always been all about trout but I started getting the itch during the summer when I'd really have to travel to catch them. Bass are a fun way to go bend a rod. And if I want lunch I can usually grab some panfish.
Rapala OG tiny 04 has been an absolute UNIT for me this last month. Not exactly a square bill but it does all the things a squarebill does, and the bass are fired up for it.
I appreciate you mentioning that you should learn the techniques before you buy new equipment, one of the reasons that you are my go to for fishing technique information. It means a lot to see the family man side of fishing as well as the tournament side, thank you.
Just finished watching your top 3 lures you don't use/like - you threw me when you said crankbait, but then this popped up after and it makes sense now. You very specifically meant deep diving crankbait, ironically specific depth is never mentioned when people say deep diving though. 10 ft? 20 ft? What's "deep"?
Been a fan for years my man, before CZcams made fishing popular again. Algorithm is screwing you though, I couldn't find this 10 hour old video by searching for crankbait fishing - I had to add your name. Populated a bunch of old videos and some from lesser channels statistically speaking. Keep keepin it real my man, much love peace
Excellent video esp. for a newb like me. My fave tip: (paraphrasing) don't worry about all that stuff cause you don't know what you're doing. Just get a crankbait and start throwing. Thank you sir.
awesome video
I have good luck with white sides and blue back. I also have been using a red sharpie to put a small dot near the hook holders. Not sure if that helps but I’ve been catching them recently so who knows.
this guy explains so clearly and simply..... love his vids. i wish he had explained more y he is advising totally against braid though.
It’s mainly because it has no stretch at all. Same line of thought as using a softer tip rod, you’re less likely to rip the hooks out with line that has some stretch to it. I use 30lb braid with crankbaits pretty often because I fish from the bank. If I get hung up on a limb or something I can usually drag the whole thing in and get my crankbait back.
I like crank baits with about 60-70 lbs braided line in the weeds, rocks , and brush piles. Most the time I can get it back when it hangs up on something.
Thank you for this! I'm not very proficient with cranks. Is fishing jerk baits similar to cranks?
You definitely have to mix up your retrieves, it takes erratic speed more often than not, and I catch a lot of fish on black baits. Black is the new fire tiger.
What pro series rod is that I have all of them and all of your rods
@brianlatimerfishing can I use a 8:1.1 gear ratio for crank baits?
Hey Brian who makes your hand made plugs? I see you throwing some small flat side hand made and I assuming they are balsa. I’ve ordered some in the past but was wandering who’s you use.
What about a Balsa bait do you like Balsa baits for fishing shallow?
b
Blatt you have fished the susquehanna, with Joe Raymond. What crankbait would you suggest in all those rocky areas?
Good content, but one observation. If I had someone in the boat with me sitting on their rear while I have to reel and grab the net myself, I think I'd throw them out of the boat. lol
I lost a 4 pounder on a crankbait Saturday. I don't do good with treble hook baits.
Do you ever use snap swivels?
So a medium power moderate action good for 1.5 cranks or should I bump it up to a medium heavy moderate? I have a 7ft medium moderate with 15lb fluoro with a kast king baitcasting reel. Just looking for insight is all and sorry if it sounds dumb. I'm trying to learn how to learn how to use crankbaits first here on CZcams for awhile and then usually like to then go out after learning as much as possible to become more proficient.
Hey B Lat! Are you fishing in Richmond this weekend?
Really enjoyed all the info B! I was wondering about the really deep crankbaits gear needed, I hear 7'6 medium heavy with a moderate action is need for DD 15 to 20 or could I use a 7'6 heavy fast rod since I can't find any 7'6 MH Moderate action in my local shops. What's you intake on the DD crankbaits gear needed?
I definitely have more hookups using a fiberglass rod when fishing crank baits. I use a 7’ 4” medium heavy/ moderate St Croix Legend Glass and switching to that rod made me start liking crank baits before that I lost nearly every fish I got to bite a crank bait
Yo b.lat I’m struggling is it because it’s post spawn or summer transition?? Help me !!
When you coming to fish for bass in south africa?
I have 2 crankbais but never used them because i din,t have the correct equipment
Are you using a medium rod.
Your tip about counting the rocks is very important, bass stay around cover so if u not hitting anything you might be using the wrong technique
It's usually the bill that hangs up/snags not the hooks. Early on I snapped line a bunch before I learned better how to run a crank. Once you realize they will basically back out of the snag, it makes it easier. And like B-Lat said throw some slack, or just stop reeling if it bogs down. Typically it will float back out
Funny part is, I'd find the plug floating later on and get my lure back.
That’s interesting!
@@BrianLatimerFishing That's been my experience for the most part. I couldn't always get every lure back, I bank fish mostly so sometimes they floated out of casting reach lol. Thanks for the continued how to's. Extremely helpful
@brianlatimerfishing my main problem with crank baits is my line always gets caught in the hooks when casting .. so when I'm retrieving the bait it doesn't perform correctly 🤦🏽♂️
Hey B Lat, why not braid? I have braid on two of my casting reels with a four foot floro leader.
Treble hooks with braid is not a good idea.
I used 65lb braid and caught fish all day on a square bill.
Line size affects depth and casting distance. Higher diameter isn't always ideal.
One thing I have never caught a bass on is a deep diving crankbait. Caught tons on everything else though. Just no luck on the Deep diving no matter how I fish it
Same!
Did you do a promo giveaway in your last video??
Great video. Tip... change hooks religiously
I throw my squarebills on 30 lb braid and smack them like crazy!!
We need a b-lat signature series reels 1 high gear 1 low gear make it happen!
It will soon enough!!!
@@BrianLatimerFishing put me down for 4 🤦🏻♂️🤫
Braid all day
Wait but why not braid? Been fishing it with squares for years
So what brand of crankbait is that? Never seen um with the dive depth on the bill, and I didn't hear B.Lat say what it was
Looks like a 13 Fishing Scamp
What is your 3 favorite crank bait colors?
2nd
First
I really wanna know why not braid lol
It has to do with not pulling the hooks out of the fish’s mouth. First you want a rod with some give to it so you don’t over power and yank the treble hooks out when you get excited that you got a bite. Then you want your line to have some stretch for the same reason. Mono has the most stretch, fluoro has medium stretch, and braid has none at all. Given that Brian is a professional angler, he likely has an ideal cranking setup that covers all of these bases. If you have just one or two setups like most of us, look for a medium fast action rod that bends more towards the middle of the blank. Then spool up with braid and use leaders to match your technique. A long mono or fluoro leader paired with that rod and braid will work great. If you still lose a fish, then loosen your drag a bit so there is room for them to pull. I fish almost exclusively crankbaits and that’s what I use. I rarely lose fish and catch a ton. Hope that helps
Watch out for those tree-bass...
Why don’t you use braid
Never use braid with treble hook baits except a topwater
Can you guess how to do it but forgot one thing
great info! but i just can't stand the focusing issue on the camera. it distracts from what you are saying so much.
That’s too bad. Thanks for watching
The camera focusing is fine to me btw
I support all of you guys especially you Matt Randy , Edwin Evers, and a few other guys, whom are guides that take people out or people that just follow the Pro Circuit, I appreciate everything you know and a lot of pros that got these channels have been hacked where us people that subscribed has been manipulated and some of the things they can say is oh I’m sorry I get it there’s scammers out here but there should be a way that someone shouldn’t be able to get into a giveaway contest through someone else’s page and then come to find out that they were on a short list of winners were people didn’t respond back. So I guess now because I made a comment about something I guess I’m restricted from seeing all the comments made but it’s no big deal to me I’m born and bred in Baltimore city would never kill me made me stronger and I love everything about the way you present things I know you’re mad or little upset about an 18 pound bags but you’re a damn good fisherman brother and I love the fact that you’re not a selfish person anybody that watches people and knows about real, you’re a good person and a good teacher and I like to thank you because I didn’t believe in Z man beats until you and My uncle and I have a listen and I have learned you have patience like I said before I got every flavor of your worms best ones that work for me or spray grass I wish you best of luck and nice video on the square bill thank you Brian for everything
Think a 6:8.1 is more of a mid range reel....
