Re: Favorite handmade cranks
This is a great topic, some SICK crankbaits for sure. I would throw everyone I've seen on here so far. Very nice. 
I tend to throw these cranks on local rivers and swamps with lots of cypress trees and close quarters. For that reason I use a lot of the Ed Chambers Zoom cranks. More widely available here and have some great actions. I use the Wobbler the most followed by the E1. The Wobbler runs to 6' and hunts and deflects great. The E1 deflects through timber as good as it gets for me never getting hung up and they all get bit.

Re: Favorite handmade cranks
Nice! I knew something was different. Is the action different from the newer ones? I don't have any from that far back, most of mine are from 2008-2012.

Re: Favorite handmade cranks
Yes the action and deflection are a little different - not much though. The new ones are just fine. Honestly you could buy 2-3 of the new ones for what you would pay if you found a lexan for sale.JBcrankaddict wrote:Nice! I knew something was different. Is the action different from the newer ones?
