damiki dc 200 or 300 would go above and below your depth, but they're very compact

Look at the Evergreen Wild Hunch. I think they are the best compact crankbaits out there.

If you want a tight wobble I really like flicker shads. Catch a lot of crappie also.

The Spro Little John MD and Berkley Digger 2" are my go to cranks for depths around 10 ft

Another vote for the Evergreen Wild Hunch. Great little bait.

Those little evergreen's hunt like crazy ! Great baits. If you can find an old Mann's 10+ that's absolutely the smallest size crank you will ever find and it will dive 10 ft. Problem is I don't think they make em anymore I've been looking everywhere

For around 10 feet give or take 2 I always keep Rapala DT-10s and Norman Deep Little Ns. Boy they get the job done for me! plus they arent crazy on the wallet and patterns galore. Durable and pretty consistent running in my book.
