The big one above the others is 5" in length with a 2" bill/lip.
The one closest to it is 4&5/8" in length with a 1&5/8" bill/lip.
The smallest one is 3&1/2" in length with a 1&1/2" bill/lip. Its bill/lip is more squared and gets narrower as it approaches to bait.
The biggest of them I bought at some point, but it was many years ago. I never used them until trying cranking this year. It is the leader of the other baits. If he catches a fish, there is a chance that the others can as well, but if big boy fails to catch one, the others are out of luck. Seriously. I have never caught a fish on any other bait unless this one catches one first. Some time he is the only one who catches fish, and some times he does not catch them.
The one in the middle once belonged to someone else. Perhaps a person on this site. I rescued it from a tree out from the Water Valley landing this past winter. The smallest one I bought, but it's been too long ago for me to remember what it is.
I would like to know what they are so I could search for some information regarding their run depths. Any help will be appreciated.

You want to sell the big one? LOL no really.
The top one is a Norman D22
The middle is a Strike King and it looks like a 6xd
The bottom one is a Luck-E-Strike Deep Diver
Thank you gents for the responses. I can't part with ole' big-un. He is my go-to-guy!
I tried him in 25 -30 FOW, and he is scrapping the bottom with 75' of line out. I run him around 25 to probably 40 or so feet of line out, and he usually comes up with a fish. He brings me big, little, and various types of fish.
I don't suppose anyone might know where a fellow (me) could go to locate depth charts for these critters do they?
The smaller one is a digger too. He runs deep, but unless I put him on the bottom I don't know how deep he is running. I usually run them to the bottom and crank up a little. It is an effort that hasn't really impressed me with its results, so I figured I'd try to find something to gauge it by other than dragging it through the mud.
You can buy the Norman DD 22's at walmart
