Random quote: Muskies are nasty. They stink. They taste bad. They are hard to catch and will disappoint even the most devoted angler. The lures required cost more than some women's jewelry. The rods and reels require a remortgage of the house. The boat is always worth more than the tow vehicle. Sure beats the hell out of golf.

Is cedar a good wood for making crankbaita? I have some 5ft cedar 1X4's & thought I might try making some larger trolling/crankbaits.

One of the best woods there for making crank baits. I have built thousands of cranks out of cedar. Its light and moves well. Mike

As Mike said cedar is great for crankbaits. I think it gives them a better action then most other woods. All of MuskieTrain's crankbaits are made from clear cedar.
Good luck,
