This crankbait performs well in deep water. The tail action is strong and attracts walleye consistently. The UV colors stand out in low light, making it easy to see in murky conditions. I’ve used it in lakes with heavy cover and it’s proven effective.

Great for deep diving. The balsa body holds up well, and the lip design helps it dive deeper than expected. The rattles add a natural movement that triggers strikes. Only minor issue is the hook size might be a bit tight for some setups.

Used this in a cold season lake and caught several walleye. The 15-foot dive depth is reliable, and the wide tail movement is very convincing. The pre-rigged hooks save time and make it easy to start fishing immediately.
