Built to reach bass that other crankbaits simply can't, the Deps Blitz Magnum EX-DR is an extra-deep diving crankbait designed to target fish holding in 30+ feet of water. Developed to efficiently cover expansive offshore structure and open-water areas, it combines exceptional casting distance, surprisingly light retrieve resistance, and a natural baitfish profile to trigger strikes from trophy bass.
Unlike traditional magnum crankbaits, the Blitz Magnum EX-DR was engineered to eliminate the heavy, tiring retrieve that often comes with oversized deep divers. Its aerodynamic body, lightweight honeycomb construction, and advanced moving weight system allow anglers to launch long casts that maximize diving depth, reaching up to 9.5 meters (31 feet). Those longer casts unlock productive depths that many anglers simply can't reach with conventional crankbaits.
The innovative nearest two-weight construction positions a large 8.5g moving weight alongside a low-center-of-gravity front weight, creating quick startup, responsive action, and a smooth, lifelike swimming motion while reducing reeling effort. The result is a large-profile crankbait that moves with the agility of a fleeing baitfish rather than the sluggish action typically associated with magnum lures.
Designed for fishing deep ledges, offshore structure, and reservoirs, the Blitz Magnum EX-DR also excels in shallower applications by controlling cast length, making it effective in water as shallow as 16–20 feet. Its long bill keeps hooks away from cover while the highly buoyant body helps the lure back out of snags, making it an excellent choice around timber, rock, and submerged structure.
