JOE BUCHER DEPTH RAIDER – CRACKER JACK TIGER

The Depth Raider is designed for casting or trolling and is effective on nearly every big game fish species in both fresh and saltwater environments. Its built-in tail-up buoyancy helps it deflect off weeds, timber, and rocks, minimizing hang-ups and maximizing fishing time.

Factors Affecting Running Depth:

• Cast or Troll Length: Longer distance between rod tip and lure allows deeper running

• Line Diameter: Thinner line enables the lure to run deeper

• Retrieve or Troll Speed: Faster speeds push the lure deeper

How to Fish Heavy Cover:

• Work the Depth Raider with a high rod angle to maintain control.

• When the lure contacts cover, drop the rod tip to create slack, allowing the lure to float backward and free itself.

• Follow by snapping the rod tip forward to clear any debris from the hooks or lip.
