JOHNCOO 115mm Lipless Vibration Crankbait, Float/Sink
This 115mm lipless crankbait is built around a tight, high-frequency vibration that bass key in on during reaction bites. The compact, deep-bodied shape and internal rattle chamber push a lot of thump through the water column, making it easy for fish to track in stained water or from a distance in open reservoirs.
Available in floating and sinking versions, it covers both suspended fish over cover and active bass chasing bait in open water. Work it on a steady retrieve, rip it through grass, or yo-yo it along channel edges. It shines during pre-spawn feeding runs, on schooling bass busting shad, and anytime fish are reacting to fast-moving, loud-vibrating baits.

How to fish it
- Cast past visible cover and let sinking versions settle to the target depth before starting the retrieve.
- Rip the bait through submerged grass, letting it briefly stall then rip free to trigger reaction strikes.
- Use a steady retrieve over open flats to imitate fleeing baitfish and locate schooling bass.
- Yo-yo the lure along drop-offs and channel edges with a lift-and-fall motion for suspended fish.
Frequently asked
Pick the floating version for shallow grass and cover, and the sinking version when you need to reach deeper channels or suspended fish quickly.
A medium-heavy rod with 12 to 17 lb fluorocarbon or 30 to 50 lb braid handles the vibration and hookset well, especially around grass.
Use natural, translucent patterns in clear water and brighter, high-contrast colors like chartreuse or firetiger in stained or muddy conditions.
It performs well during pre-spawn and fall feeding periods when bass are actively chasing baitfish in open water or along grass lines.
