Deepest diving lure (casting) under 50 mm?

Hey everyone, just wondering what the deepest lure you guys have ever cast that is under the 50mm mark (or a toutch biger) Recently i have been using the Osp dunks and the cammion maximum dredge's which both seem to get down pretty deep but i have wondered for a while if there are any other lures around that do a simmilar depth (or deeper?!?). I am really enjoying this deep cranking stuff recently and i am keen to expand the collection.

Thanks

Cameron

I have a few of these, they dive crazy deep. They're probably a bit big for bream though, unless your fishing Tassie lol. Killer bass lures too.

Daiwa Revo Spike might be worth a go. Very similar to the OSP Dunk 48. Regards. HBt.

Give Wilson Slickback 50mm and dive to 4m plus. Only $10 each as well.

The deepest diving small lure that I use is the Ecogear CX35. I'm not sure how deep they go, but it must be well over 8 feet. These lures are a deep diving floating lure, but I have added some Suspend Dots to my to make them suspenders. They certainly won't go as deep as an OSP Dunk though.

I would say OSP dunks are the deepest lure I've cast.

I prefer sinking lures than really deep divers personally.

Windknot I think CX35's only go to around 1.2-1.5m but thats pretty interesting yours are getting to 8 foot. Where do you stick the suspendots?

I put a big Suspendot between the front treble and the bib. This makes them suspend with a slight nose down attitude.

I don't really know how deep they go. My 8 foot estimate is based on the fact that they often hit the bottom on a certain stretch of river that I know is 8 feet deep, as I've taken readings there with my fish finder. Perhaps the suspend dot effects the running depth? I find that they're a very useful little lure.

Alright excellent cheers. Yeah I love the CX35's. I don't use HB's as much as I'd like due to the conditions that I fish but I really enjoy cranking when I do. Plan to do a fair bit more over summer!

Looks great for flathead and jewies! how deep stella fella???



R2S D40F's go pretty deep dude, prob somewhere around 6-8ft...
theyre an awesome big breambo breakwall lure as they dive fast and the bog round bib bounces and slides over rocks.
also my go to hb for flathead on sandy bottom when the depth looks 6-9ft

the front treble may need down sizing tho coz they usually tangle lol

Poltergeist 50mm

Standard bib goes to 3 metres, XXD goes to 8 metres.

As soon as it is too deep for a chubby I through an Atomic semi-hards. Deeper, vibe / blade territory.
