If you are looking for the best performing balsa baits, you need not look any farther than TC Cranks. Owner and creator, Tadjen “Pete” Peterson, is no stranger to any bass angler who fishes in the Midwest and more often than not he is receiving a good check for his efforts. These accomplishments have been aided by his development of super balsa crank baits that are as good as they get.

Pete states that, “About 1.5 yrs ago I started toying with the idea of handcrafting my own crank baits hoping to improve the dull action of the crank baits on the market today to give me that “edge” in competitive fishing. After creating multiple designs and different color schemes with rigorous on the water testing, I believe I have perfected these baits to give you that “edge” as well.” 

The performance of his baits was reflected in the 3rd place finish at the recent Heartland Trails Pro-Am at Grand Lake by ProCraft pro angler Terry Thomas. Terry stated that the TC Cranks enabled him to catch many keepers and perform better than any other balsa lure presently in production.

Pete also mentioned that, “TC Cranks stand behind our work. If you are not 100% satisfied with the quality and craftsmanship of these baits, please contact him immediately.”

While these baits are not cheap, Pete does not take any short cuts, the price is worthwhile when you are fishing for thousands of dollars.

Due to the overwhelming request for these baits on the local tournament level as well as the national level, please allow 4-5 weeks for delivery of your Weapon Series baits.
