I was barely moving it. The shoreline vegetation was dense, and grew within a few inches of the surface. The key to cranking was to twitch the crank two or three times, just enough to get it beneath the surface...then pause.....pause.....................pause....................BOOM!

First congrats on a very nice gill!
I pull cranks a lot in the summer months and it's amazing at the small fish that will hit a crankbait and it seems that all different species will hit them at times. Great pic..
