Brush Baby?

[wisconsin heat]

i recently bought an interesting crankbait called a brush baby... its by luhr jenson... it looks retro, and very unusual...i am wondering if any1 has tried these, maybe know the diving depth? and if this is a good lure? :-?

I have one in "Bull Bream" color, but I've never used it.

Heck, I wasn't sure they were still in production. LOL! I have 3 but rarely use them. Knowing what I do about one of the lakes I fish, I may have to break them out this year and see how they do.

Sorry, don't know the depth, but I have have used them and they're no more or less productive than many other cranks I've used, as best as I can determine. You can go ahead and throw it with confidence.

I have one of the chartreuse blue backs in their shallow diver. Runs about three feet tops.  I met a former L J employee who shared the design was a bit different in the flared side ribs were to create the deflection rather than the normal over size square bills found on other shallow crankbaits.  That combination was to allow for a tighter wobble and deflection.  I throw in around pad fields and it has caught a fair number of fish. I still like Bomber Balsa or Sisson balsas for pad fields nad downed wood.

Brush Babies are good crank baits.  You'll be suprised at the stuff you can throw it in to and get it back.  I like the half ounce ones better than the quarter ounce.  I have issues getting the quarter ounce ones to run straight whereas I don't with the half ounce baits.
