Bell Knocker Magnum

Bell Knocker Magnum

The Deps Bell Knocker Magnum is a super-shallow crankbait engineered to trigger aggressive reaction strikes through a unique combination of sound, vibration, and erratic action. Designed to run just beneath the surface, it excels when targeting bass feeding over shallow flats, submerged vegetation, wood, docks, and other shallow cover. Its defining feature is Deps' proprietary Spring Weight System, which changes the lure's behavior according to retrieve speed. During a slow retrieve, the internal weight remains silent for a subtle, natural presentation. As the retrieve speed increases, the spring-mounted weight strikes the body, producing a loud knocking sound while creating an unpredictable hunting action that imitates the erratic movement of a fleeing baitfish. This combination of sound and instability often provokes instinctive reaction bites, even from pressured fish. The Bell Knocker Magnum performs exceptionally well with a steady retrieve, stop-and-go presentation, or twitch-and-pause technique. On twitches, it generates subtle surface ripples and insect-like vibrations, making it equally effective for finesse presentations around precise targets. The rear hook eye also allows anglers to add an optional propeller for further customization of the lure's action. Whether used as a search bait or to target specific pieces of shallow cover, the Bell Knocker Magnum offers exceptional versatility, allowing anglers to alternate between a quiet finesse approach and an aggressive, noisy retrieve depending on the conditions
