Looking at buying a few of each, square bills, mid and deep divers. At four dollars each, seems like a good enough deal for back up cranks. What kind of depth are you guys getting out of each bait?

On the small squarebills I get around 3-4 feet max. They are good cranks. I have a bluegill colored one that has caught more fish then I remember including a couple 8+ at Falcon and while the paint is showing the miles that thing keeps catching fish!

I believe you can reach 5' with 15# fluorocarbon and a really long cast.

It only touches water when theres money on the line. I stock up on H20 when they are under 3 bucks.

I think get about 2 feet shallower than the printed depths on the bait.

If you go down a line size it will help get you where you want. If not comfortable going down to 10lb or maybe even 8 you can switch to braid. It's subjective whether it costs you strikes or not. A lot of people use it to get mad depth out of their crankbaits.
