    manns minu 1 but want something deeper

    Love the minus one but somtimes wish it ran a tad deeper without all the speed. What brands do you like for say medium depth. Maybe an LC 1.5 ? Seems like my boxes are all deep or really shalow

    The RC 1.5 will actually dive to like 4ft. The lucky craft BDS 1 will dive a foot. The BDS 2 will dive no deeper than 2ft. I like using these baits over the top of grass or in water shallower than 3ft. These baits have a little bit of a wider wobble than the rc series making them more similar to the manns.


    Cranking away.

    I like the Norman fat boys as well. It does have a wide wobble but is great for working thru brush piles. A great squarebill to use is the bandit 100. It has a tighter wobble than the "fat boy", a smaller profile, and if you fish it on 20lb. mono - will dive to about 3'. It's my typical go-to on shallow water.
