Line 24:
A crankbait has a short, stocky body typically with two treble hooks, but also an elongated elliptical bill that often equals or even exceeds the body length. When retrieved, the large bill will cause the lure to [[pitch (aviation)|pitch]] down and dive, often accompanied by small, fast side-to-side twitches. The rate and depth of the dive depends on the design of the bill and the [[specific gravity]] of the lure's body (usually lighter than water). The name "crankbait" refers to the steady speed of the fisherman's [[fishing reel|reel]] [[crank (mechanism)|crank]]ing during retrieval, which imparts a linear dive on the lure, until the reeling stops (which causes the lure to float up).
