Deep Diving - Mini Crank Boats

What are some good tracking deep diving mini crank baits?

Something that can be burned along pretty quick at about 6 feet deep.

I use Norman Professional Edge Middle N's on 12lb test for this (with the rod pointed down). They typically run very good, but you find your occasional one that needs a little tuning. I have caught too many fish to count on this little lure...

But then again, it depends on your definition of quick...

How small is "mini"? Maybe a #5 Shad Rap or a Norman Deep Baby-N.

Might need small-diameter line to stretch it (the Shad Rap) down to 6'. And I won't even make any smart-ass comments about the "Crank Boats" in an attempt to keep this NG limited to an exchange of serious fishing information. :)

....difficult to find, I'm partial to the Rebel Deep Teeney R. Bomber's Fat Free Fry is a close second. said Huck Huck

6' is a long reach for a small bait. I use 10lb Big Game and get several feet out of The Bagley's Bitty B's. Something slightly larger in the Bagley's is the Craws. They have a couple color variations. But I usually only get about 4' out of those. A Bitty B with a large lip might get a bit deeper. Thinner line will get you a bit deeper. carlos

Big fan of Bandit cranks here, but sounds like a lipless might suit you better if you really want to "burn" the boat...ughh bait.
