dive curve for #5 and #7 flicker shads

[lunker99]

Does any one know the dive curve for these? Are they similar to the shad raps? Thanks in advance.

Is that the max depths for these lures?

Thanks

Generally speaking for me Yea! I don't like to run much more line out than that. If you look at the dive curves of any lure you won't get much more depth out of many of them once you've reached 150-200' back.

Who likes to fish with that much line out anyway. Time to put snap weights or put 'em on lead core if you want a more efficient way to fish these lures deeper.
