Bomber Model Flat A 3/8 Black Chartreuse

The Bomber Model Flat A 3/8 Black Chartreuse is a shallow crankbait designed for situations where you need precise depth control and a lure that won't disappear when you pause your retrieve. This crankbait delivers a tight, responsive swimming action similar to a lipless crankbait, but with a crucial advantage: it holds its depth instead of sinking. That buoyancy makes it a go-to choice for winter fishing and prespawn periods when fish are sluggish and holding at specific depths rather than actively chasing baitfish.

The Black Chartreuse color combination works well in a range of water conditions, offering contrast and visibility whether you're fishing stained water or dealing with low light. The 3/8-ounce size gives you a compact profile that suits shallow cover and structure without excessive bulk, making it easy to cast accurately into tight spots where inactive fish tend to gather.

Whether you're fishing a shallow flat, working the edges of a weed line, or targeting suspended fish in cold water, the Flat A's ability to stay at a set depth when paused lets you fish methodically and deliberately—ideal for coaxing bites when aggressive presentation won't cut it. It's a reliable shallow crankbait for any angler who wants to match the hatch and fishing pace to what the fish are actually doing.
