Sakura Crankit +2 – 60mm 14g

Sakura Crankit +2: The Silent Medium-Runner Master

Finding the right balance between depth and stealth is the key to cracking tough days on the water. The Sakura Crankit +2 is a 60mm medium-running crankbait designed to dominate the mid-water column. Whether you are searching for active predators or trying to coax a bite from shut down fish, this silent hunter provides the perfect presentation.

Like its deeper-diving siblings, the Crankit +2 features a silent internal design. By removing traditional loud rattles, Sakura has created a lure that relies on a tight, seductive wobbling action to trigger strikes. Its a finesse approach to power fishing that excels in clear water and heavily pressured venues. The internal magnetic mass transfer system ensures that the 14g weight punches through the wind for pinpoint accuracy, making it one of the easiest-casting crankbaits in its class.

Technical Specifications

Where to Use the Crankit +2

• Exploring Sunken Structures: The 2-meter diving depth is ideal for raking the tops of submerged walls, sunken timber, and reef plateaus. The floating buoyancy allows you to pause the retrieve and let the lure rise safely over snags.

• Canal and Small River Fishing: Its compact 60mm profile is a magnet for big Perch and Chub. The silent action wont spook the shoal, often allowing you to pick off multiple fish from the same spot.

• Tidal Estuaries: Work the Crankit +2 along the edges of salt marshes and mudflats as the tide floods. The medium-depth lip is perfect for reaching Bass that are moving in to hunt over the newly covered ground.

• Clear Water Reservoirs: When the sun is high and the water is gin-clear, noisy lures can be a deterrent. The natural wiggle of the +2 mimics a calm, unsuspecting baitfish, making it a top choice for wary predators.

Adaptive Retrieval

The Crankit +2 is incredibly responsive to rod and reel input:

• Slow Retrieve: Produces a discreet, low-amplitude flutter that attracts the most suspicious fish.

• Fast Retrieve: Transitions into an explosive, high-energy swim that triggers aggressive reaction strikes from active pike and bass.

Gerrys Tip: The Crankit +2 is a fantastic search tool. Use a steady retrieve to cover water, but every 5 or 6 turns, give the reel a quick burst of speed. This sudden change in cadence often forces a following fish to commit before the lure gets away
