The Deepest-Diving Lead Core on the Market

Sufix 832 Advanced Lead Core is the first lead core line to combine HMPE (high-modulus polyethylene) and Gore® performance fibers braided around a lead core wire. The result is a trolling line that dives deeper, holds stronger, and lasts longer than anything traditional lead core can offer — giving you a serious edge when targeting suspended fish at precise depths.

Why Traditional Lead Core Falls Short

Standard lead core lines are round in name only — they flatten under pressure, lose sensitivity, and break down quickly under UV exposure and abrasion. When you're trolling for walleye, lake trout, or salmon at 20–40 feet, line failure or imprecise depth control costs you fish. The 832 Advanced Lead Core was engineered to fix every one of those problems.

Built for Serious Trollers

The 832 Advanced Lead Core dives 30% deeper than traditional lead core and is 70% stronger — meaning you can run lighter weights, achieve target depth faster, and trust your line when a big fish surges. The Gore fiber integration also makes it infinitely more sensitive, so you feel every bump, tick, and strike transmitted directly through the rod.

Advantages Over Standard Lead Core

• 30% deeper dive — reach target depth faster with less line out
• 70% stronger — handles big fish and snag pressure without breaking down
• 3X abrasion resistance — survives rocks, zebra mussels, and structure
• Rounder profile — feeds through guides and line counters smoothly
• UV protected — resists sun degradation for longer line life
• Infinitely more sensitive — feel bottom contact and strikes clearly

When to Choose It

The 832 Advanced Lead Core is the right pick if you're trolling open water for walleye, salmon, lake trout, or stripers and need to hit specific depth windows without adding snap weights or diving planers. It's also ideal for anglers who want to replace traditional lead core with a more durable, higher-performance option that won't flatten or kink over time.

Best Fishing Techniques

• Lead core trolling — the primary application; use color changes to dial in depth
• Snap weight trolling — pair with snap weights for even deeper presentations
• Planer board trolling — runs cleanly on inline and mast-style boards
• Deep-water jigging leader — use as a weighted running line above a fluorocarbon leader

Best Conditions

• Open-water trolling on large lakes and reservoirs
• Summer and fall when fish suspend at depth
• Clear water where precise depth control matters
• Rocky or structure-heavy bottom where abrasion resistance is critical

Best For

• Species: Walleye, Lake Trout, Salmon (Chinook, Coho), Striped Bass, Steelhead
• Techniques: Lead core trolling, planer board trolling, snap weight trolling
• Anglers: Great Lakes trollers, reservoir walleye anglers, charter captains

Key Features

• First lead core to combine HMPE + Gore® performance fibers
• Braided construction around lead core wire for roundness and consistency
• Color-coded every 10 yards for precise depth tracking

Tackle Express Tips

• Depth formula: Each color (10 yards) of 832 Advanced Lead Core dives approximately 5–6 feet at standard trolling speeds (2–2.5 mph) — run 5 colors to hit 25–30 feet.
• Leader setup: Connect to 15–20 feet of fluorocarbon leader (matching or slightly lighter lb test) using a back-to-back uni knot or a small barrel swivel for clean line-counter feeding.
• Spool tip: Back the lead core with 100–150 yards of 30lb braid as a backing — it saves spool space and gives you a strong, low-stretch foundation.

FAQ

How deep does Sufix 832 Advanced Lead Core dive?
At standard trolling speeds (2–2.5 mph), each 10-yard color dives approximately 5–6 feet. Five colors puts you at roughly 25–30 feet. Actual depth varies with speed, lure drag, and line diameter.

What's the difference between 832 Advanced Lead Core and standard lead core?
The 832 version uses HMPE and Gore® fibers braided around the lead wire, making it 70% stronger, 30% deeper-diving, 3X more abrasion resistant, and rounder in profile than traditional lead core. It also has significantly better UV resistance.

What leader should I use with lead core?
Most trollers use 15–20 feet of fluorocarbon in a pound test equal to or slightly lighter than the lead core. Connect with a back-to-back uni knot or small barrel swivel. Fluorocarbon's low visibility and abrasion resistance make it the top choice.

When Bass Go Deep, This Is What You Tie On

Most crankbaits tap out at 12–15 feet. The Strike King Pro Model 8XD keeps going. At 5.5 inches and 1.3 oz with a dive depth of up to 20 feet, this is the crankbait built for the moments that matter most — when big bass have pushed off the bank and stacked on deep ledges, humps, and structure. Tight wobble, aggressive lip, premium finish. This is the bait that goes where others can't.

Built for the Deep Game

The 8XD is Strike King's answer to deep-water bass fishing. The oversized lip drives it down fast and keeps it in the strike zone longer, while the large, well-balanced body generates subtle vibrations that pull fish in from a distance. Whether you're dragging it across a 20-foot ledge or burning it through a deep flat, the 8XD tracks true and stays dialed in cast after cast.

Why Shallow Cranks Fail Here

When bass move to deep structure in summer and fall, standard crankbaits simply can't reach them. You're fishing above the fish — and they know it. The 8XD's aggressive lip geometry gets it down to 20 feet on a long cast, putting the bait right in the face of fish that haven't seen pressure all day.

What Sets the 8XD Apart

• Dives deeper than most crankbaits in its class — reaches 20 feet on a long cast with 10–12 lb fluorocarbon
• Tight, realistic wobble that mimics fleeing baitfish with precision — not an exaggerated thump
• Aggressive lip design gets it down fast and holds depth through the retrieve
• Large, well-balanced body generates subtle vibrations that attract fish from distance
• Premium finish and components built to withstand aggressive strikes and repeated use
• Available in 10 proven color patterns for clear and stained water conditions

The Right Pick If...

• You're fishing clear lakes or deep reservoirs where bass stack on structure past 15 feet
• You want a crankbait that tracks true and stays in the zone on long casts
• You're targeting ledge bass, humps, or deep flats in summer and fall
• You need a bait that generates reaction strikes from fish that have seen everything
• You fish 10–17 lb fluorocarbon and want maximum depth on a standard retrieve

Best Fishing Techniques

• Ledge cranking — long casts with 10–12 lb fluoro, slow steady retrieve to keep it grinding the bottom
• Hump fishing — cast past the structure, let it dive, and work it over the top and down the back side
• Deep flat sweeping — cover water quickly on expansive deep flats during post-spawn and summer
• Reaction cranking — burn it through suspended fish to trigger reaction strikes

Best Conditions

• Clear to lightly stained water — 2+ feet of visibility
• Summer and fall when bass push to deep structure
• Post-spawn transition as fish move off the bank
• Reservoirs, clear lakes, and highland impoundments with defined ledges and humps

Best For

• Largemouth and smallmouth bass on deep structure
• Ledge and hump fishing in 15–20 foot range
• Tournament anglers targeting deep summer and fall patterns
• Anglers fishing clear-water reservoirs and highland lakes

Key Features

• Length: 5.5 inches
• Weight: 1.3 oz
• Dive depth: up to 20 feet
• Type: deep-diving crankbait
• Tight, realistic wobble action
• Aggressive oversized lip for fast depth acquisition
• Large, well-balanced body with subtle vibration

• Available in 10 color patterns including Gizzard Shad, Green Gizzard Shad, Nude, Delta Red, Chartreuse Shad, Barfish, Tennessee Shad, Natural Shad, The Shizzle, and Tennessee Shad 2.0

Models & Specs

Tackle Express Tips

• Run 10–12 lb fluorocarbon on a 7'6" medium-heavy rod to maximize dive depth — fluoro sinks and adds 2–3 extra feet compared to mono.
• On ledge bites, slow your retrieve until you feel the bait ticking bottom. That contact is what triggers the strike.
• Match color to water clarity: Gizzard Shad and Green Gizzard Shad shine in clear water; Nude and Delta Red are go-to choices in stained or low-light conditions.

FAQ

How deep does the 8XD actually dive?
Up to 20 feet on a long cast with 10–12 lb fluorocarbon. Line diameter and cast length both affect depth — thinner fluoro and longer casts get you deeper.

What rod and line setup works best?
A 7'–7'6" medium-heavy rod with a moderate-fast tip and 10–14 lb fluorocarbon is the standard setup. The longer rod helps load the bait on the cast and keeps it down during the retrieve.

Is this bait good for smallmouth?
Yes. The 8XD is excellent for smallmouth on deep clear-water lakes and reservoirs, especially in summer when fish push to 15–20 foot structure.

• Strike King Pro Model 3XD — shallower diver, ideal for 8–10 ft structure

Anglers who fish the 8XD also reach for these Strike King baits when conditions call for a different presentation:

• Strike King KVD 2.5 Squarebill — when fish move shallow or into cover
• Strike King KVD Jerkbait — for suspended fish and clear-water reaction bites
• Strike King KVD Sexy Dawg — topwater option for early morning and low-light windows
• Strike King KVD Sexy Dawg Jr. — finesse topwater for pressured fish and smaller bites

This Evergreen FA Jerkbait is the answer to Morizo’s uncompromising search for tools that lead to a catch. As a tournament fisherman, Shimizu says he only uses tools he is confident will bring about absolute results. Regardless of season or field, this jerkbait has all the features — body shape, lip structure, action, distance, ability to go deep and much more — of an ultimate search bait that works with efficiency under any condition. Its significant vibrations move the water dynamically to attract fish near and far, then with an irregular dart, induces a strike in a lure-in-and-trigger-a-bite action that Shimizu favors. The jerkbait boasts complete mastery when it comes to searching a wide area.

FA-115: 4 1/2" - 5/8oz

FA-87: 3 3/8" - 5/16oz

All of Morizo Shimizu’s theories about jerking is contained in this killer-size jerkbait. We kept the original FA-115 features of distance and action, but added natural bite-inducing vibrations to withstand tougher fishing conditions. The FA-87 takes the original performance of the FA-115 and gives it more natural, whether its in the irregular and wide-angled dart action, the tight wiggle action and pauses of a pumping retrieve, and its use as a bait tackle even at this size thanks to its casting distance. This killer jerkbait has a small body with the versatility to go from stillness to motion, dramatic to subtle, and produce natural vibrations that lead directly to a bite.

Strike King Rage Tail Craw

The Strike King Rage Tail Craw is built around one of the most effective craw designs in bass fishing: the exclusive Rage Tail flange system. Those signature flanged claws don't just look like a crawfish — they move like one, creating maximum water displacement and a defensive, claws-up posture that triggers aggressive strikes from bass whether you're flipping heavy cover, pitching to docks, or dragging across rocky structure.

Engineered with hi-grade customized plastics that stay soft and maintain action in cold water, the Rage Tail Craw is as durable as it is deadly. Rig it Texas-style for punching through cover, run it on a Carolina rig to cover water, or pin it as a jig trailer to add a lifelike craw profile to your presentation. The Baby Rage Craw gives you the same proven action in a downsized profile for finesse situations or when bass are keyed in on smaller forage.

Features

• Exclusive Rage Tail flanged claws — maximum water displacement and lifelike defensive posture
• Hi-grade customized plastics — stays soft and durable through cold water and multiple fish
• Versatile rigging — Texas rig, Carolina rig, weightless, or jig trailer
• Available in two sizes: Rage Craw (7 per pack) and Baby Rage Craw (9 per pack)

Best For

• Techniques: Flipping, pitching, Texas rig, Carolina rig, jig trailer

The Strike King Rage Bug is built around one of the most effective soft plastic concepts in bass fishing: subtle action at ultra-slow speeds.

Engineered with hi-grade plastics and an exclusive tail design, every Rage Bug is purpose-built to perform. Also available in Magnum size for big-bait applications.

Key Features

Specifications

The Reaction Innovations Shiver Shot is a 3.65-inch shad-style soft plastic built around a shiver tail that produces action with the slightest flick of the rod tip — on a drop shot, the tail shivers and vibrates at rest with minimal rod input; on a jig head, it swims with a realistic baitfish action; on a Carolina rig, the tail shimmies on the drift. The durable yet supple plastic maintains the tail action through repeated strikes. 9 per pack in 8 colors spanning shad, crawfish, and attractor patterns.

Key Features

• Shiver Tail — Action on the Slightest Rod Input — The Shiver Shot’s tail is designed to produce a shivering, vibrating action with the smallest rod tip movement or current; on a drop shot, the tail shivers at rest and on the fall with minimal rod input, producing a lifelike baitfish action that triggers strikes from bass that are watching the bait closely; the tail action is most pronounced on a drop shot where the bait is suspended in the strike zone and the tail moves freely.
• Durable Yet Supple Plastic — Maintains Tail Action — The plastic formulation is durable enough to withstand repeated strikes while remaining supple enough for the tail to move freely with minimal resistance; the balance between durability and suppleness is what allows the tail to produce action with the slightest rod input rather than requiring aggressive rod movement.
• Versatile Rig Compatibility — Effective on drop shots, Carolina rigs, and jig heads (fished like a fluke or swimbait); the 3.65" profile fits a wide range of hook sizes and jig head weights across all three applications.
• 8 Colors — 9 Per Pack — Eight colors spanning shad imitations (Sexy Shad, Bad Shad Green, Small Mouth Magic, Pride Shad), crawfish/creature patterns (Magic Craw Red, Green Pumpkin Purple & Copper Flake), and attractor colors (Spring Break, Poutine); nine baits per pack.

Color Selection Guide

Best For

• Drop Shot — Primary Application — The Shiver Shot’s tail action is most effective on a drop shot where the bait is suspended in the strike zone; nose-hook or wacky-hook on a drop shot hook and suspend above the bottom; the tail shivers at rest and on the fall with minimal rod input, triggering strikes from bass that are holding tight to bottom structure or suspended in the water column; most effective in clear water and post-frontal conditions.
• Carolina Rig — Effective on a Carolina rig for covering open water, points, and transition areas; the tail shimmies on the drift and produces action on the pause, triggering strikes from roaming bass; use a 1–2 ft leader for a natural, drifting presentation.
• Jig Head — Swimbait Style — Thread on a 1/8–3/16 oz jig head and swim steadily for a baitfish imitation presentation similar to a fluke or paddle tail swimbait; the shiver tail produces a swimming action on the retrieve that triggers strikes from bass feeding on baitfish.

The Picasso Tungsten Ball Jighead is crafted with 97% pure tungsten for superior feel and sensitivity. This enhanced hardness and density is far higher than that of polymer/tungsten jigs. The jighead also features a Gamakatsu 2X strong hook and is an environmentally-friendly, lead-free product.
