Super User WRB Posted February 25, 2017 Super User Posted February 25, 2017 Norman DD-14 & 22, Poes 200 & 300 series, Bomber 7A and Yo -Zuri 3D Vibe lipless. I like deep divers like DD-22 & Poe 300 to hit the bottom if those 12' bass are feeding with a foot to it. Tom 2 Quote

Super User A-Jay Posted February 25, 2017 Super User Posted February 25, 2017 I've got a few but the Spro Mike McClelland RkCrawler 55 Crankbait has been holding it's own for a couple of seasons now. A-Jay 2 Quote
Super User smalljaw67 Posted February 25, 2017 Super User Posted February 25, 2017 I have 3 that I use in rotation and all have a time and place. The Rapala DT-10, Bomber 7A, and the Bomber Fat Free Shad BD5. 2 Quote
3dees Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 I refuse to spend 15-20 bucks for a crankbait. Norman DD14 and mostly Bandit 300. 4 Quote
Super User scaleface Posted February 25, 2017 Super User Posted February 25, 2017 I posted Deep Little N but its more of a 8 to 10 foot lure for me . 10 to 12 I've been using the Rapala CR14 Crankin Rap quite a bit . It was probably my number one diving bait last year . 1 Quote
Super User Columbia Craw Posted February 25, 2017 Super User Posted February 25, 2017 Normans Deep Little N and Luhr Jensen 1/4 Hot Lips. 1 Quote
Super User Catt Posted February 25, 2017 Super User Posted February 25, 2017 Bill Norman Lures has been a long-standing staple in the fishing industry, providing quality, 100% American-made lures to suit the demands of anglers everywhere. In an effort to create an effective crankbait for every possible depth, the Bill Norman NXS Crankbait was designed to fill the gap in-between the DD22 and the Deep Little N. Diving from 12-16ft, the Bill Norman NXS crainkbait picks up where the Deep Little N leaves off and transitions into the deeper range where the DD22 then takes over. Additionally, the body size also fits in-between the two lures and is built with an elevated lip for fast vertical dives, which gets it into the strike zone more quickly and stay longer. The aerodynamic shape of the Bill Norman NXS Crankbait allows it to cast like a dream and helps anglers effectively cover more water. Engineered with an attitude and buoyancy that’s ideal for moving through heavy cover, the Bill Norman NXS Crankbait reduces hang-ups by floating backwards on slack line when it becomes snagged, and often times frees itself. Made with sticky sharp VMC treble hooks, the Bill Norman NXS Crankbait demonstrates Bill Normans Lures’s uncanny ability to build a lure to fit any situation. Description from Tacklewarehouse 2 Quote
Super User Team9nine Posted February 25, 2017 Super User Posted February 25, 2017 Poe's 300 for most of that range, and a Poe's 400 for the deeper edge. DT-10s and 12s are a decent modern bait, as are the RC DD's -T9 1 Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted February 25, 2017 Super User Posted February 25, 2017 Strike King series 5 is just about right for 8-12 feet, the 5xd digs and grinds a little too much in less than 10', so I keep a few series 5's around for this. When they are not really keen on the size of the series 5, I switch it up to a 3xd and that works well too. 3 Quote

Super User WIGuide Posted February 27, 2017 Super User Posted February 27, 2017 I like the Rapala DT 10 and Bomber Fat Free Fingerling. 1 Quote
Clinton john Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 Unless I'm fishing down in the 20 foot depths are more I'm throwing the bandit lures. Have some KVD cranks as well but I seem to do better with the Bandits. 10 to 12 foot I'm throwing a bandit 300 in white with black back. 1 Quote
SMcLamb Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 My favorite that touches that depth at all is the Spro Little John MD 50 that gets down to 9 feet. After this I really like the Spro RKCrawler like AJAY said as well as a rapala DT10. 1 Quote
GreenGhostMan Posted February 27, 2017 Posted February 27, 2017 Most used are SK 3XD and Rapala DT10. 1 Quote
