Best Answers

The DT4 is one of my favorite shallow runners, and few baits cash in better than the DT 10 when smallies are camped out on ledges 10 to 14 feet deep. Use thin, braided line like Suffix 832 and the DT 10 can reach 15 feet. That's actually three different cranks. So sue me. 3. Bomber 6A. read more

Some work best after fronts, some excel in stable weather. read more
