hey i need help ... i got a few crankbait of my own

and on th package it said 3-8 foot depths that it can go to but theyle only go 1-2 feet deep ?

[alton4bass]

Most crankbaits won't quite reach the depth listed on the package except under perfect circumstances. You can get more depth by switching to lighter line (10#) and making really far casts. You will be better off to judge running depth for each crankbait yourself. Try not to rely solely on the depth listed on the package. Hope this helps!

@joblo252 First try using lighter line as crankbaits will dive deeper on lighter line.  Also use fluorocarbon to help achieve maximum depth. Some cranks do not dive as deep as the package indicates, so you may have to test individual baits to determine actual diving depth. As a guide, here is the info for Fat Free Shad crankbaits. BD5 dives 4-6 feet, BD6 Dives 8-10 feet, BD7 dives 12-15 feet. Hope this helps
