0-3 feet, clear water, heavy vegetation
manns minus series
3-6 feet, clear to muddy water, sparse to medium vegetation/wood
bandit 100-200
6-12 feet, clear to muddy, rocky
bandit 200-300. I prefer 300 in this type of water with 10lb line you want that bait bumping in the rocks. If the bill isnt getting chewed up your not fishing it right.
12-18 clear, rocky
bandit 300 to dd22 same theory as above
if you fish the deeper divers in shallow water vary the retrieve speed so the bait bumps the bottom and change your rod angle to cause the bait do stay shallower. Fish the crank slow enough to stay in contact with the bottom is how I've always had the best results. BTW line size will vary action and depth of the bait.
thats pretty much the majority of what I use. I'm gettin into some custom wood baits an love them.
