Lucky Craft Pointer 78DD Crankbait

Lucky Craft Pointer 78DD — Deep-Diving Twitchbait That Suspends and Seduces

The Pointer 78DD (Double Deep) is a compact, suspending minnow lure from Lucky Craft that combines an irresistible rolling action with a lateral slide — reaching predators down to 2 metres.

Suspension and Fine Vibration Draw Inactive Fish

At rest, the Pointer 78DD hovers in the water column and emits a subtle, fine vibration. This makes it especially effective during cold-water periods or whenever predators are sluggish — the lure simply stays in the strike zone and lets its trembling action do the work.

Rolling Action with Lateral Slide Triggers Reactions

Once you twitch or retrieve the lure, it responds with a pronounced rolling motion and a sharp sideways slide that stimulates the lateral line of perch, trout, and pike. Vary your cadence — short twitches, pauses, or steady cranking — to match the mood of the fish on the day.
