Karlβs Amazing Baits Golden Boy is your new favorite squarebill crankbait. Karlsβ favorite sports to throw The Golden Boy is near hard cover, docks, brush, or rock piles. The body is a tough cookie, thatβs how he got his name, so donβt be afraid to deflect it off the hard stuff to imitate a wounded, fleeing baitfish.
Pro Tips:Β Goldie Lockβs favorite bait – not too large, not too small – JUST RIGHT! One of the most time-tested hardbait designs, the Golden Boy is a workhorse. The bill is thin enough to have lots of great, hunting action, but strong enough that it doesnβt break or wear down after grinding it on rocks or slamming it into docks. The hooks are sticky sharp, and thereβs no need to have a strong hookset. Use a moderate action rod, which is more foregiving and will prevent you from ripping the hooks out of the fishβs mouth. Plus, when a big one gives you a headshake, youβre more likely to keep it buttoned up. Use fluorocarbon when fishing the Golden Boy around rough cover, but opt for monofilament if you want a little extra stretch to keep fish hooked.
