Dwayne, got a full arsenal for BPS brand small cranks. Do just as good as the other brands. By the way, BPS brand is just another way of saying BPS purchased overstocked items from the other company, change the products' logos a bit, and made the products BPS brand. Some are knock-offs. Crawfish/creature imitation, see quite a few people near me use them too. Just as effective as Mr. Yamamoto or other major brand. I have BPS XPS hologram floater with plenty of other brands' cranks. Same effectiveness. All about how you work the cranks and present it. Here's an example that brand don't means much:

Jeff, thanks for the pics. I am about to increase my crankbait arsenel. I was wondering what to get and also if anybody has tried the BPS small cranks and there small crawfish crankbaits?
Looking forward to contributing to this group....My favorite crank baits are the Strike King Bitsy Minnows......
Let's talk about big reservoir bream and shellcrackers. Here in the south Lake Murray is 55,000 acres !! most of the shoreline is developed. there are a ton of boat docks!! i'm what you would call power fisherman! constantly on the move. i put two ultralite rods in my boat. One with a Strike King bitsy minnow, sexy shad pattern, and one with a Rebel super teeny wee-r, brown crawdad pattern. Drop the trolling motor down and start hammering boat docks. i usually know with in the first 2 or 3 docks if there biting or not and can usually figure out a pattern pretty quickly!! Stop and go retrieve's are best 90% of the time. the bream and shellcrackers will knock the paint right off these baits. If you are a on the move, cover lots of water guy like me, you should give these baits a try!!! I have also caught Largemouth bass up to 6 pounds on these baits, and too many perch to count. these two little crankbaits are my hands down favorites!! Ask a relative to get you a couple as a stocking stuffer for Christmas!!!! Merry Christmas everyone!!!!
