Bad Shad: The floating Bad Shad 5 and Bad Shad 7 are outstanding casting baits that rise in the water with each pause in the retrieve.4. Pitbull: The enticing tail wag of the square-billed Berkley Pitbull 5.5 is impressive and attractive, especially when bouncing it off wood and rock.5. Digger: Berkley Digger 6.5 and Digger 8.5 crankbaits are great for covering water with an aggressive wobble and side flash. The lures access their targeted running depth quickly and stay consistent throughout the retrieve.6. Cutter 110: Anglers that love nailing fish on suspended jerkbaits will love the new Cutter 90+, 110+ and Skinny Cutter 110+.
