Grandma's or 'Raiders

[pdryan0225]

Anybody have an opinion to Grandma's crankbaits vs. Buchers "Raider" crankbaits - (eg; Shallow Raider, Depth Raider)

They look so close in shape and action. Any differences that I'm missing?

I use them both quite a bit. They are both great baits. I like that Boucher offers the shallow raider in a jointed model.

The depthraider will move a lot more water trolled or cast than a grandma. I typically twitch the grandmas and shallow raiders.

Twitching these baits is a very good idea. I also do that. I work like like jerk baits instead of steady retrieve. both work well but the raider doesn't float up as fast.
