Gonna pick me up some crankbaits.
All of them I have now are shallow runners, remember I have been a puddle fisher for a long time.
Planning on using some deep diving crankbaits when I go to Gibson County Lake.
What are some good ones?
I hear alot about the KVD series, but don't know which ones are best.
Thanks.

How deep are you talking? For the 10-15' range, I really like the Norman crankbaits. They come in a heck of a lot of colors too. For deeper than that, I go with the Fat Free Shad cranks.

I like the squarebill crankbaits, KVD series. but they are for shallow water.
Bomber has a new deep diving squarebill that looks really good.

My favorite is the Strike king 5xd and 6xd for deep crankbaits. Hard to beat a Norman dd22 also.

Get a good glass rod for deeper crank bait and keep your line to the 10-12 lb range

Picked up several tonight.
Got a few Norman DD22 and some NX S too.
Got one Strike King XD silent series.
Picked up a few jerk baits too.
They were Matzuo brand and they were on sale for like $2.99 so I got about 5 of those just to have.
Picked up some shallower running Bombers just to have some extras.
Mainly went after the deep runners though.
I am covered from about 9 to 20 feet deep now.
Thanks for all the replies.
