| 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 |

| 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. |

| 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. Warren ;-) |
