CRANKBAITS ARE COOL

Although I enjoy all types of fishing, I have the most fun catching fish using crankbaits. The majority of the fishing I do is at local ponds in Southern California. My current fishing philosophy is understanding the lure designer's intent and catching fish using the strengths of each lure. I also enjoy tinkering and modifying lures to fit the conditions of my local waters.
