Default Hmm

I own a lot of flicker shads and they work very well. But when the walleyes are on cisco's over deeper water. I like a longer chrome lure, more flash.

I have used these on Erie with great success! In fact I like them even better then the famed Reef Runner 800's. The quality is better as they run straight right out of the box. I know I will get bashed for this statement but this is my experience.

Yup, my biggest walleye (11 pound fish) came on the Bandit Walleye Deep Diver, chrome with a blue back. Got it in late October on Erie, right out of Huron. Great baits!

I don't always throw crank baits, but when I do, I often throw Bandit crankbaits.

Bandit walleye deep is my favorite lure, with the blue back and silver side is my favorite color. I have caught a lot of eyes on them and is killer on bass as well. They run true and wont blow up at high speed like a reef runner will.

Where I live I cannot find the walleye bandits or the b-shads, so I have not had a chance to try them. I have a lot of experience with the 100, 200, and 300s though. Combined, they outnumber every brand except Rapala in my tackle box. I am new to walleye fishing, so I have yet to catch a walleye on any of them, but the same goes for my flicker shads and shad raps. However, they catch the heck out of everything else. When crappie are ignoring jigs and minnows (or when they're not), I troll bandits and fill a stringer. Also bluegills, perch, the occasional catfish, and of course bass. Smallmouths supposedly love them, but I don't get to fish smallmouths often.

I would like to find some of the walleye bandits though, so if anyone knows where, I would appreciate it. The deep ones troll to like 30 feet and the shallow ones even go to like 12. But they're hard to find, even on eBay.

Really have had great success with the bandit gold with black black and the new copper color. By the way you can order them like I do mine from www.banditlures.com

I just picked a bunch of these up, but my target isn't necessarily walleyes/saugers with these, although I'm guessing they'll hit em too. I'm actually using them for flatheads. Still in the testing process right now.
