A steerable crankbait...

I am still in the USA.

Next Friday I will load Buck and the truck and head for the Kawarthas.

Buck...

When ordering from the US it's a good idea to ask that your goods be sent via the US Postal Service. Slower but cheaper.

 

If you have a friend, like me, who winters in the States, they might let you send your lures to them...After a few months away we are allowed to bring back $700.00 tax free. On my pension I never even get close to that number...grin.

Isn't this a topwater bait? It is always on top of the water.

 

This thing is a topwater isn't it? People might be misled thinking it is a crankbait.

Yes this bait stays on top most of the time.

It has a diving lip and can be tugged under, but it's nature is to lay on it's side on the surface.

 

Without wanting to split hairs too finely, or derail the thread, I feel that most body baits qualify as crankbaits. This is because you don't float them in the surface film like a fly or dead stick them like a worm...They generally only start to "work" when you're reeling.

 

To me Topwater would only be a subdivision. Other subgroups would be Lipless, Deep-diver, Swimbait, Glide bait, Jerkbait, Stickbait and Wake bait etc.
