Default I May Have Hoarded A Particular Crankbait

Owning over 400 crankbaits, a recent inventory shows that for the waters I fish I own dozens of Rebel Fastrac Jointed Minnows FTJ2. Erie guys seem to be overdosing on deep Bandits.

WHICH WALLEYE CRANKBAIT DO YOU OWN MORE THAN ANY OTHER??

Most of what I "hoard" are cranks that have been sold or changed.

Norman DLN, Bandit 300, Rebel Crank-R, Storm Warts, etc.

I buy quite a few cranks at once when I find a good sale on colors that I like and store many using them as I need them since crankbait prices constantly increase.
I haven't done an inventory yet this winter for insurance purposes and to see what I may need over the winter but in last years inventory I had 286 #7 Berkley Flicker Shads. I have alot of other makes and models of cranks also but #7 Flicker Shads are at the top of my list.

Bandit Walleye Deep Divers....own around 300 of just those.

Rest of the Arsenal is:

Smithwick p-10's and Top 20's
DHJ12's
Spro Madeye 120's
Flicker Minnows
Yaleye Mooneye Minnows
Reef Runner Mag 44's
Walleye Nation Creation Reapers, Square Bills, and Boogie Shads
Cotton Cordell Ripplin Redfins
Flicker Shads
Slick Sticks
BayRats
Reef Runner 800's and Ripsticks
Smithwick Rogues
Homemade crawler harnesses

Then, there are some bass baits, but they don't get much use.

I think that's about it....close to a 1000 baits in total.

Some women like to buy shoes...I like crankbaits.

At one point I counted around 1500. I sold a bunch and downsized still probably around 800 or so. Overall probably own more husky jerks more than anything, bandits and reef runners probably a tie.

You're making this old guy feel like a little leaguer again only owning just over 400.

Berkley Flickershads 5`s and 7`s purchased hundreds when they first came out at $1.50 a piece. Only color i did not buy enough of was the very first Clown color. almost a miracle bait on Pool 4, the newer Clown color does not even compare in catch rates..
