The Bomber Square A Lures feature a square paddle with chamfered corners to give you the advantage in timber, stout brush and other heavy cover. Bounces off objects and keeps on running, with its classic wide wobble. Square A cranks rate very high on the toughness scale. Dives: 0-3'.

Depending on water color but usually cant go wrong with a chartuese color in most situations. Check your depths for preventing snags. Treble hooks like to snag up in brush. Else wise check bait fish in pond and match it up or even crawdad color works well with a slow roll
I usually go by the color of the water. If its clear i'll go with something that looks more natural -green, brown, etc. If the water is murky, dark, i'll go with something brighter. Get a combination of those at a sale price and you can't fail.
Depends on water clarity in the pond. Use natural colors in clear water, I like to use the bass color or one of the shads. In murky or dingy water use fire-tiger, chartreuse or one of the red craws.
I have used the strike king 1.5 and the xcalibur square bill, and I always come back to the bomber. The action is incredible thanks to the coffin shaped lip, and you don't have to choose between 30 colors, bomber keeps it simple and the colors work great. I prefer fire tiger and foxy momma.
Bomber square billed cranks are good and for the money... real good. However, I'd suggest strike kings KVD 1.5, and 2.5 cranks. Great colors, great action, very durable.
Well, most of the square bill's don't that deep. My favorite square bill is the Bomber Square A (dives 0-3ft), it is a fish catching machine. When I reach for a square bill it is in shallow brushy areas where a 6ft max depth is not needed. The bandit 100 series dives 2-5ft, and its a great bait its just small and light.
There really is no one single color that is the best or more effective than the other. All colors can be affective if used in the right place at the right time.
Water clairity and sky conditions are the main factors in color selection. As a general guide,smaller baits in natural colors like dark greens and browns, blacks and greys, silvers and golds, work best in clear water or on bright sunny days, and you fish them fast. In stained or muddy water, or a cloudy overcast day, bigger baits in bright colors like chartruese, bright oranges and reds, fished slow, will usually work best.
Another thing to consider when chosing your color, is trying to "match the hatch" or pick a bait that will look like the main food source that is in the body of water you are fishing. If there is plenty of suspended forage, like shad or smelt, use a silver shad looking profile. If there are lots of crawdads in the water, use a reddish brown crawdad color and bounce it along the bottom. and if there are lots of frogs, use a green or brown color and swim it along the top.
But these are just guides. Its always a good idea to keep plenty of colors and sizes in your tackle box as well. If you come to a new body of water, or are unsure of what color would be best, a good trick is to pick a color that matches the bottom of the lake or river, ect.
There really isn't a best color for bass. Bass eat anything. The color will depend on the weather, the lake or pond and what the fish like. I seem to have been luck with Green in one lake near my house and white at another. I also seem to have been luck with darker lures in the sunny weather and shinier lures in the cloudy weather.
it all depends. to fast of a river and it will not matter. but for our rivers here in michigan i would try something from storm like the rebel wee. they are much more durable and they come in better colors for small mouth.
I feel pretty sure the lure runs its advertised depth of 3 feet max, which is one of the main reasons I settled on it to start with. I'm fishing shallow water nearly all the time.
