The Norman DD22 has been winning tournaments since 1987. This deep-diving crankbaits is a must for ledge fishing in the 14-to-18 foot range. Like all Norman crankbaits, the DD22 is made of butyrate which creates a dull thud that helps fish hone in on it. Combined with a medium-wide wobble, the Norman DD22 is irresistible.
