Spro Little John MD 50 Crankbait

SPRO Little John MD 50 Crankbait takes the Little John's tight wobble into the listed 7–9 ft range. Designed by John Crews for covering water, it combines a computer chip board lip with a silent tungsten weight-transfer system to help you make long, accurate casts and work the bait around cover. When the fish are below the shallow bank, this medium diver gives you a way to keep searching.

Reach the Mid-Depth Zone

The MD 50 is the choice when you want to crank deeper than the SPRO Little John 50, which is listed for 3–5 ft. Its durable, sensitive lip helps the lure deflect off suitable cover, and its tight wobble supports a steady search retrieve. Gamakatsu treble hooks complete the bait.

The Right Pick If...

You are fishing freshwater bass water around the MD 50's listed 7–9 ft depth range and want a compact crankbait with a silent weight-transfer system. If your targets are shallower, the 3–5 ft Little John 50 is the more fitting comparison; if fish are much deeper, choose a lure rated for that range instead.

How to Fish It

Cast beyond your target and retrieve steadily to bring the lure toward its listed depth. Adjust your retrieve so the bill can work near suitable cover or bottom changes without constantly burying. Match your rod and line to the conditions; SPRO Gouken Fluorocarbon is a line option to consider for keeping contact with a crankbait.

Tackle Express Tips

• Use the 7–9 ft listing to choose water where the lure can reach the zone you want to cover.
• Change your retrieve speed if the bait is not reaching cover or is digging too hard.
• Inspect the lip, hooks and line after repeated contact with structure.
