About this piece
The Imakatsu Crank IK-500R2 is a deep-diving crankbait designed to consistently reach depths of 5 meters, with dragging capabilities exceeding 8 meters. It features a moderate wobble roll action that appeals to deep-schooling big bass without spooking them, even at slow retrieve speeds. The lure is equipped with custom Quattro Point treble hooks on the tail to improve hook-up and landing rates on deep fish.
