Q&A
The first crankbait specifically targeted to walleyes to hit the market, the Cotton Cordell™ Wally Diver is as deadly today as ever. It's the original "banana bait," the often-copied legendary profile that has taken countless walleyes and other game fish in all waters. Whether cast or trolled, the Cotton Cordell Wally Diver's quick-diving "rock with a roll" action brings aggressive strikes at any speed.

Excellent lureHave used these in the past. A good lure for picking up about anything in the lake.

Walleye DRIVER now I'm a believer...I must admit I was for a long time a deep-diving crankbait sceptic - my observation being that in their engineering, 'deep-diving' was prioritized over realistic strike attraction action for most of this type of lure, resulting in lures that got down deep but once down there weren't very attractive to fish. However, my recent experiences have changed my mid - the Cordell Wally Diver is a perfect compromise between diving and fish attracting action of the lure - I believe it levels out at its prescribed dive depth and takes on the attitude and wobble of a small fish. Fished to bump bottom occasionally it gets Walleye cast or trolled, and seems to be very snag resistant on rough bottoms. ALSO, compared to other similar well-designed crankbaits (e.g., Rapala Shad Rap, Rapala Deep Tail-Dancer) the Cordell unit is much more affordable - you can get three Wally Divers for the cost of two Rapalas. Highly recommended.

Ok lureI was expecting more from these lures, Cotton Cordell aint a bad namebrand, so I dunno if its my lures or the area im in or what, but these lures didn't do so hot trolling. They caught a few eyes but mostly Jack. I did check the recommend box because they run true depth and they are priced right.

Wally'sThe only problem I have had with these is sometimes hook into a fish and loose it cause the rear treble hook screw pulls completly out of the lure which I think it is big wipers or gar that are doing it. Still give it 5 stars cause I have caught so many fish with this lure and they always swim properly.

destroyed conventional wisdomThese lures are awesome... I could bore you with details but I'll just say this in two days fishing no more than 6 hours total caught 9 nice walleye, two monster smalls, and a 34' northern amongst other-smaller northerns.. The biggest eye was 32"! these were all caught in MN in August! didn't hear of anyone else catching anything.. at least of substance.. best of all after all that wear and tear the lure still ran true and didn't have a scape on it.. made some believers we tried different trolling lures but only managed a couple of small Northerns this lure made the difference.. Good luck and Tight Lines!

Underrated luresThese are usually overlooked by Aussies but the Wally Diver is a brilliant Bass lure here, either trolled in the lakes or cast in the rivers and creeks.
The Chartreuse/Red is the best dirty water lure I have ever used, and I always turn to it when the going is tough.

2012 LOW Hot BaitBlack over chrome in #7 (7'-10') diving depth was the hot bait for us on Lake of the Woods, Mn early summer.
How deep do the different sizes dive when trolled slowly?
Asked by: Treybien
why aren't these jointed anymore?
I have several Cotton Cordel Wally Divers, they're jointed
. We love them we call them the "Super Dubers" Always like to keep a few extra in our tackle boxes for replacements since we've lost a few.
