Collection: Custom Painted Bandit Walleye Deep Suspending Crankbaits
Our custom-painted Bandit Walleye Deep Suspending crankbaits are designed to trigger aggressive strikes from walleye, salmon, trout, steelhead, and other freshwater predators throughout Michigan and Great Lakes fisheries. Featuring the proven action of the Bandit Walleye Deep platform with a suspending presentation, these baits are ideal for targeting pressured fish and cold-water trolling patterns where longer strike-zone exposure can make the difference.
Each lure is custom painted by Captain Jim Chamberlin of 131 Custom Lures using proven fish-catching color patterns developed through years of Great Lakes trolling experience. These custom finishes are designed to imitate natural forage, increase visibility in changing water conditions, and trigger reaction strikes from fish feeding on suspended bait.
The suspending action allows these crankbaits to pause naturally in the water column during turns, speed changes, and slow trolling presentations, creating a wounded baitfish appearance that predatory fish often cannot resist.
