Bomber Model A 1/4 1-1/4 4-6' Baby Bass Orange Belly
The Bomber Model A 1/4 1-1/4 in Baby Bass Orange Belly is a compact diving crankbait built for bass anglers who need to downsize when fish get finicky. With a body length under 1.5 inches and a diving depth of 4–6 feet, this small-profile crankbait punches above its weight class—ideal for clear water, tough conditions, or when bass are keying on forage. Its tight, efficient action and natural orange-belly coloring make it a reliable choice for both largemouth and smallmouth situations where a modest presentation outperforms oversized lures.
The Model A line is known for delivering solid performance in shallow to moderate depths, and this 1/4 ounce version maintains that reputation while opening doors to finesse-focused presentations. The Baby Bass pattern—orange belly with contrasting topside—mimics a genuine forage match in many freshwater systems. Whether you're fishing clear lakes, rivers with moderate current, or reservoirs with suspended fish, this small diver rewards careful placement and steady retrieves.
Bomber's hard-body construction ensures durability and consistent action through repeated casts. The compact design also makes it easier to cast on lighter tackle and more sensitive setups, giving you better feedback and control when you're fishing shallow, structure-rich zones where big bass often hide.

Frequently Asked Questions
What water depth should I fish this crankbait?
The Bomber Model A 1/4 dives to 4–6 feet, making it suited for shallow to mid-depth structure like submerged logs, rock piles, and deeper weed edges. Adjust your retrieve speed and line weight to dial in the exact depth within that range.
Is this crankbait good for downsizing when bass aren't biting?
Yes. The compact 1–1.5 inch body and small profile make this bait ideal for presenting a subtle option when fish are pressured, clear-water conditions make bass cautious, or forage is particularly small.

The orange-belly coloring with natural topside finish mimics small baitfish common in many bass waters, providing a realistic profile that triggers strikes in both clear and moderately stained conditions.
