I like the 3XD but it is pretty light and hard to get distance in the wind. Looking for a small body deep diver alternative. Any recommendations that aren't $15 each?

No. You get what you pay for.

Bandits don't work...please move along. Nothing to see here.

Berkley Dredger 10.5 or 14.5
They could improve some of their paint schemes, but they cast well for their smaller size.

Agree, Bandits are terrible these days.

Throwing these smaller, lighter crankbaits on MH spinning gear has made my life easier.

I like this although it seems to work a bit better in colder water.
