Quick take
The Bandit Walleye Deep is a slender 4 3/4-inch minnow-style jerkbait that weighs five-eighths of an ounce. It is built to run deep, diving to about 27 feet, which suits anglers trolling for walleye, zander and other predator fish. Its wide, searching swim makes it a practical pick for open-water trolling.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
