I find for deep cranking, water clarity dictates lure color, usually one is trying to imitate bait fish, so something light on the belly with a darkish top, and maybe a bright color accent works well, the more dirty the water, the larger the accent, until in really dirty water, it becomes the lure color, the second color is something crawfish like when bouncing it off the bottom, doing that. When cranking in clear water, getting close to the forage is how I do it.

I don't fish cranks much deeper than 16ft.-18ft. My two best producing cranks are the Bomber BD7 & BD8 Deep Fat Free Shad and the Norman NXS Crankbait, or DD22. I like red craw colors and something with plenty of chartreuse. I'll almost always choose a crank that runs deeper than the depth I'm targeting.

That's a good place to start. The 6th Sense Cloud 9 series are great. Berkley Dredger and the Megabass Deep-X 300 are worth a look.

They must call the black-red crawdad, Chili bowl now which is such a odd name

Strike King 6XD in Green Gizzard Shad and chart/blue are about the only deep cranks I need.

     I own them all, and continue to by more, but could easily get by with two.                                        6th Sense Cloud nine series.  Aggressive action, loud and great hooks.  Something with chartreuse, and some type of Shad.

 

Rapala DT. series.  

For when they want a tighter less aggressive wiggle, and not as much noise.  Sam colors as Cloud Nine.
