Bandit Bandit® Crankbaits - 100 Series

There's nothing sneaky about the way these Bandit Crankbaits catch fish! Bandit lures always run true right out of the box, and have the ability to steal you a tournament win anytime. Bandit's 100 series crankbaits scream for attention, with an extra-wide wobble and a loud rattle that really brings the strikes home! Dives 2' - 5'. Weight: 1/4 oz. Length: 2''. Hook size 6.

"Great bait. On the first day I cought 1 bass but had one hit and I did not set the hook and another one hooked but it swam into the trees, hung the bait up and got off. The bass that I did catch was 6 inches. This bait is tought and has great stock hooks; it also has great color and action."

"These bandit crankbaits are great. The 100 series is great for shallow water fishing and fishing over structures. The bandit baits are low profile with just enough design to make the bass bite."

"I usually dont use crankbaits but I purchased the 100 series and was dominating largemouth bass in D.C..I ended up getting snagged and snapped the line and watched it float down the potomac, i was ready to jump in after the lure to go get it. After losing that one I had to buy another 100 series and two 200 series..great crankbait! I use the baby bass color."

"Just yesterday I went fishing at my local lake on my boat and before my Personal Best was 6.8lbs I was bouncing this bait off of falling trees and a a 7.01 ponder crushed it the hooks keeped him pined and i landed him. Btw this was in the north. The only bad thing i have found was that they chip after a hard day of use o well if they get fish that big i will pay for them."

"I purchased two of these in a pearl/chartruese back and the other in a solid black color. They're awesome little crankbait's. We've been using them in lakes and ponds and have been catching bass from 2 lbs. to 5 lbs. steadily. The action on these cranks are sweet. I have been fishing with alot of the RC Squarebills, that are high priced, and these little Bandits have seemed to hang right with them. Awesome crankbaits for the money, I highly recommend them."

Great Crank

By Gus13
from Brandon, MS
Advantages: Performs well, Value for money, Quality
"These are perfect for when you are looking for a smaller crank. If the fish aren't very active you can finesse one of these around cover to get the fish to bite. Great colors and they hold up great. I love the for pond fishing. I do like to replace the hooks. Mustad KVD Triple Grips #4 or #6 Owner Stinger hooks work great for me. Best for light lines as the cranks themselves are pretty light. Overall good stuff."
