I'm looking for a square bill that runs deeper that 6-7ft. Many of the deadfalls I target reach down to 10ft and I'd like to try one rather than a traditional rounded bill crank.

I have tried the KVD and I just couldn't get the hang of it, I would much rather throw a Spro Lil John MD.

Academy has one that is rated as a medium diver but it gets down pretty deep for a squarebill.

Thanks for the replies everyone.  I've used the SK and Spro baits and they don't get down quite deep enough on 10lb. fluoro. The only one that I know will is that behemoth 4in/ 1.5oz. that I actually have, but use for musky fishing. 

FYI ShirtFish, unless you weigh a lure down with SusupenDots to the point that it actually sinks, it won;'t get your bait to run deeper. Doing so would negate its ability to back out and up from a snag.

Curious why you want a deeper running squarebill. Better deflection?

IMO, a square bill will trigger strikes that a round bill wouldn't.  I've been using a coffin bill and seem to do better with it and I attribute it to the bill design. I just feel that a square bill will work even better.

 

Thanks to all that have suggested baits that run 6-7ft., but I'm looking to get a little deeper than that.
