23 feet or so on 15# Big Game when strolling. About 18 to 20 on a long cast.

They really like them on Toledo Bend. I just posted a good picture on Instagram of an 8lber this week that choked one this week. Like others said they have less drag than the other brands, but they still get really deep and have great action. I followed Darold's advice and picked up several at Academy. I did very good with them (Media Tment 21 lbs) last week on Toledo and also today on Sam Rayburn. They have a good finish, track straight and have very good hooks. I have been well pleased with them. I am throwing mine on heavier line than most since I am fishing some really "Narly" places! I am using mine on 20lb Seguar InvisX and on the Castaway 7'6" SKX-XDD. I have been getting down to 16-17'. So far Noooooo Complaints and will probably get some more. Best of all is that they Catch Fish!

How deep have you guys got the 300 DD and the 500 DD? The 300DD runs about 14 ft max for me and the 500 DD don't run any deeper than a 6XD. They are awesome crankbaits, not running them down at all..just curious how deep you guys are getting them to go. Everybody will have a different experience based mainly on line size. What size line are you throwing? I can get a 300DD and 6xd down to 17' on 12lb fluoro. I've never thrown a 500DD. 10 lb Flouro, 7'11" cranking rod, lews BB1. I cast that 300DD crankbait 60 yards and it won't touch 17'. That bait runs about 13-14 ft max. I can hit bottom with a 6XD in 21 ft easily.

Love the 300d but I fish it in 8-12FOW never been able to hit more than 15ft 7'10"MH 12lb floro and my 200e5 I hit 17-20 often with my 6xds the 500DD is sweet but like stated I haven't got it down like the10xd

Worst crank baits ever, no do not waste your money......
On a serious note I have had days were they would hit only 10XD's and days they would only hit the 500DD's, but the days they hit the 500DD's out weighs the not. I keep one of each tied on in the boat at all times. I run them on 15lb PLine 100% Flouro. IMO they are a great tool to have.

I like them. They work, but don't run as deep as advertised. Keep that in mind.
