Overview
Built for river back-trolling, this diver uses water pressure against its wings to reach depth, then floats off structure when pressure eases. It is intended to keep lures and baits presented tight to the river bottom, making it suited to controlled presentations in moving water. The 4-inch body is rated to run to 40 feet, and the Silver UV Crush finish adds a visible, fish-attracting look.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for river back-trolling, so it is more specialized than a general-purpose diver for all trolling situations.
- The 40 ft. running depth is a fixed specification, which may not suit shallower presentations or every water condition.
- Its buoyant, structure-floating action is useful around bottom contact, but it also means the lure’s behavior depends on pressure and current rather than staying locked in one depth profile.
- Color is limited to Silver UV Crush in the provided data, so there are no alternate finish options to choose from here.
