Evergreen WH-8 Crankbait

The Evergreen WH-8 is the deep member of Morizo Shimizu's Wild Hunch crankbait family, sold in Japan as the Wild Hunch 8 Footer. It keeps the bite-triggering wobble-and-roll of the original Wild Hunch but reaches roughly 6 to 8 feet, so it can dig along bottom, rock and wood below the range of the shallower models. A large 3D lip grabs the water and glances off hard cover, and two big tungsten weights fixed low in a slightly fuller body give it good casting distance without a weight-transfer system.

• Floating; dives about 2.0 to 2.5 m (6-1/2 to 8 ft)
• Two fixed tungsten weights for a low center of gravity
