Bomber Model A 1/4 1-1/4 4-6' Fire Tiger
The Bomber Model A diving crankbait in Fire Tiger is a compact search bait that delivers outsized results when bass are finicky or selective. Despite its diminutive profile—under 1.25 inches long—this crankbait punches well above its weight class, making it an excellent choice for downsizing when fish are pressured or feeding on smaller forage. The 1/4 ounce weight keeps the lure responsive and allows for precise casting control, while the diving action takes it down to 4–6 feet where suspended and bottom-feeding bass often hold in moderately deep water.
Fire Tiger's contrasting black and chartreuse pattern is a proven color scheme for triggering strikes in stained water and low-light conditions. The compact body design reduces profile resistance, so the crankbait moves with minimal effort—ideal when you need to cover water efficiently or maintain action through longer retrieve sequences without angler fatigue.
Whether you're fishing lakes with a defined thermocline, creek channels, or shallow impoundments, the Model A's combination of small footprint and genuine diving depth makes it a reliable option for sight-fishing scenarios, clear-water conditions, or situations where bass have seen standard-sized offerings. Keep one rigged and ready when the day demands a second look at a pattern that's working but not quite delivering the hook-up ratio you need.

What depth does the Bomber Model A reach?
This crankbait dives to 4–6 feet, placing it in the zone where bass often suspend or forage near structure and bottom in moderate-depth water.
Is the Model A good for downsizing when bass aren't biting?
Yes. The compact body profile—under 1.25 inches—is specifically suited to conditions where fish are selective or have seen standard-sized offerings. It's an effective option for matching smaller forage or triggering bites when bass are pressured.
What does Fire Tiger look like underwater?
Fire Tiger combines black and chartreuse in a high-contrast pattern. This color scheme is proven for stained water and low-light fishing where visibility is limited.

At 1/4 ounce, the Model A is lightweight and best suited for moderate casting distances. Its low weight makes it responsive and easy to work, though it won't match the distance of heavier crankbaits.
