Bomber Model Flat A 3/8 2-1/2 3-5" Black Chartreuse

The Bomber Flat A is a shallow crankbait that delivers a tight, responsive swimming action without the liability of sinking when you pause. This 3/8-ounce, 2-1/2-inch profile works 3 to 5 feet deep—a critical depth zone during winter and prespawn periods when bass and other gamefish hold at precise levels and aren't eager to chase. Unlike lipless crankbaits that drop on the pause, the Flat A stays put at your target depth, letting you work slower presentations to finicky fish that are conserving energy in cold water or transition phases.

The Black Chartreuse color combination offers contrast in low-light conditions and stained water, making it easier for lethargic fish to locate and commit to the strike. The tight, subtle wobble is ideal for situations where aggressive action spooks cautious fish—common in early-season and late-season patterns when the bite is choosy.

If your winter and prespawn game relies on precise depth control and patience rather than aggressive retrieves, the Flat A fills a gap that standard lipless crankbaits and deep-runners can't: a suspending shallow crankbait that holds fish at the exact zone they're using, without requiring constant rod movement to keep it in the strike zone.

This shallow crankbait reaches 3 to 5 feet deep, making it ideal for winter holds and prespawn staging areas.

When is this crankbait most effective?

The Flat A excels during prespawn and winter periods when fish are less active and holding at specific depths rather than chasing aggressive presentations.

How does the action compare to other shallow crankbaits?

The Flat A delivers a tight, controlled swimming action similar to a lipless crankbait, but with the advantage of suspending on the pause rather than sinking.
