What are your favorite deep diving cranks with bodies under 3" long that diver 15 feet or deeper? So far the SK 5 XD is my favorite, though it tops out right around 15' on 10 pound fluoro.

Norman Deep Little N 2 3/4 inches and 12-15 feet.  Comes in a bazillion colors.

Strike king xds work the best.

Might be a bit bigger than you want but I have had really good luck with the rapala dt16 in bluegill color. Chris.

That one works, body size is 2.75". Not that a bigger crank won't catch bass around here, especially in off colored water and windy conditions, but our forage is smaller and bass over 6 pounds are uncommon.

i always liked the rapala dt 15 or 16 in a bluegill or perch pattern. fish it with a stop go retrieve with a occasional jerk. when your lure is under the boat let it sit for like 5 secs.(just in case a bass is following it)

My favorite bait for 15 feet is the XPS Deep Diver but it's a big crank.  The smallest bodied crank i have in the 15 foot range is the 2 1/4 Mann's 15+.  I've also got a 2 1/4 Luhr Jensen Hot Lips that looks like it might get close to 15 feet.
