Bandit Lure 8-12' 2" 3/8oz Crawfish Orange

The Bandit Lure 8-12' 2" 3/8oz Crawfish Orange is a diving crankbait built to hunt fish at depth. This hard bait reaches down to 12 feet when cast on standard 10-lb line, making it a solid choice for bass, walleye, pike, and other gamefish that hold deeper in the water column. The crawfish orange finish matches natural forage and triggers strikes in a variety of conditions—whether you're casting to structure or working shallow flats during transitional light.

The Bandit 300 Series (of which this crankbait is part) has earned a reputation for reliable performance because it does one thing really well: it searches. The diving action is designed to draw attention and provoke reaction strikes from aggressive fish. The compact 2-inch body and 3/8-ounce weight make it easy to cast and control, letting you cover water methodically or target specific cover without overcomplicating your presentation.

Quality construction and a proven color pattern mean this lure will hold up to repeated casts and fish contact. It's equally at home on a spinning or baitcasting setup and works just as well on the troll as it does from the shore or boat. If you fish waters where crawfish are present—or you just want a reliable orange crankbait that dives fast and gets to work—this one belongs in your tackle box.
