The Berkley Frittside Crankbaits are a series of shallow and medium diving flat-sided crankbaits developed by crankbait guru and 1X Bassmaster Classic Winner David Fritts.
The Frittside features a flat-sided body that exhibits a tight, thumping swimming action that is unbelievably effective at triggering bites when fish are especially sluggish, like during the winter time or when heavily pressured by other anglers. Despite being made of durable plastic, the Frittside's action is remarkably reminiscent of a balsa wood crankbait too and provides anglers an affordable alternative to pricey custom balsa wood crankbaits.
The Frittside comes pre-rigged with Berkley Fusion19 treble hooks and is available in over 10 colors and 5 size/dive depth variations: Frittside 5, Frittside 7, and Frittside 9 (see table below for details).

Great lure!!
I have caught so many bass on the lone ranger and the sexy back square bill here in NC. It's often the first lure tide on my crank rod. The bills are fragile but the lure catches fish.

Best Lake Erie crank baits
The berkley frittside has been the best Lake Erie crank bait for big large and smallmouth bass the last few years. This past year we were even catching nice walleye and steelhead with them.
Ned Rigs were introduced to me 3 years ago. I can always count on them to catch fish, any fish. Just like the Z-Man TRD, I can always count on Discount Tackle for quick delivery and fair prices. The box stores have gotten ridiculously priced. I found Discount Tackle this year and have ordered often from them several times times. I appreciate their pricing, inventory and fast delivery. Even paying shipping I’m saving money and getting the lures and colors I want. Discount Tackle is my go to store for stocking my tackle box!
Great reel but not sure TW is worth the price difference
I just picked up one of these after using a Lexa 300 HD for many seasons. I use them for fishing 2-5oz swimbaits on the California coast, typically in 30-100 FOW while drifting.
Pros compared with Lexa HD:
- I like that the TW line offers the lower 6.3:1 gear ratio that's marginally better for California halibut while still having essentially the same line per turn as the 7.4:1 Lexa HD, which I've found to be very beneficial while on the drift (I can't use the 6.3:1 Lexa HD in the afternoon, when the drift picks up, because it doesn't retrieve line fast enough to maintain good swimbait action)
- I do think it casts farther than the Lexa HD, but I'm still feeling out whether I think that extra distance is worth the extra cost
Cons compared with the Lexa HD:
- I prefer the HD's counter-balanced handle and smaller knob. I haven't yet had the TW's handle swing while casting, causing the spool to engage and cast to get cut short, which I've read online can happen; I've been purposefully positioning the handle before casting to avoid this, but I'd prefer not having to do that or think about this. And while you can find the other handle online and swap it on, that just adds to the cost (plus, some handles found online don't come with the appropriate nut plate and screw; you have to order them separately from Daiwa).
- Cost
But overall, it's still a Lexa, which means it's buttery smooth, well built and well sealed. If cost is not a factor, the TW is probably worth it, and I have seen them go on sale from time-to-time at a cost very similar to the HD.
After using other Zman soft plastics this lure us over superior to other lures due to its vibration and the lures panicking action and its flashing being able to catch anything bass to trout over all I give it a 5/5 it is just perfect.
