The 6th Sense Axis Metal 2.0 Squarebill Crankbait is built around a patent-pending pivoting metal lip that produces a fundamentally different action than any conventional squarebill β the Erratic Hunting Action (EHA) causes the bait to randomly hunt side-to-side as it dives to 2β5 feet, mimicking the unpredictable movement of a fleeing or disoriented baitfish rather than the predictable wobble of a standard crankbait. The 2.0 update adds a metal insert in the mouth of the bill for a louder underwater knock and increased durability, while a 10% smaller bill delivers a more stable, controlled action. 2.5", 1/2 oz, #2 treble hooks.Β
- Patent-Pending Pivoting Metal Lip β The core innovation of the Axis Metal; unlike a fixed plastic bill, the metal lip pivots during the retrieve to produce random, unpredictable side-to-side hunting movement; the pivot mechanism allows the lip to deflect off cover and change direction erratically rather than tracking straight β triggering reaction strikes from bass that have seen every standard squarebill retrieve.
- Erratic Hunting Action (EHA) β The pivoting metal lip produces 6th Senseβs proprietary Erratic Hunting Action β a random, side-to-side hunting movement that mimics a disoriented or fleeing baitfish; the unpredictable action is the primary trigger for reaction strikes from bass holding on shallow cover and structure.
- 2.0 Upgrade: Metal Insert for Louder Knock β A metal insert has been added into the mouth of the metal bill in the 2.0 version; the insert produces a louder, more pronounced underwater knock during the retrieve that adds an acoustic trigger to the visual EHA action; also increases bill durability for extended use around rocks, wood, and hard cover.
- 2.0 Upgrade: 10% Smaller Bill for Stable Action β The 2.0 bill is 10% smaller than the original Axis Metal bill; the reduced bill size produces a more stable, controlled action that maintains the EHA hunting movement without the excessive rolling or blowout of the original at higher retrieve speeds.
- 2β5 Foot Depth Range β Dives to 2β5 feet on a standard retrieve; ideal depth range for shallow cover fishing β laydowns, dock posts, riprap, and shallow grass edges where bass hold in the 2β5 foot zone; the squarebill profile deflects off cover to trigger reaction strikes.
- 2.5" / 1/2 oz β #2 Treble Hooks β 2.5-inch body at 1/2 oz provides the casting weight needed to reach shallow cover targets accurately; premium #2 treble hooks sized for the body profile and the bass species targeted in the 2β5 foot depth range.
Color Guide
- Shad Burst β High-flash shad imitation with burst finish; effective in clear to lightly stained water when shad are the primary forage; flash and shad profile trigger reaction strikes from bass keying on baitfish in open water and over shallow flats.
- 4K Bluegill β Hyper-realistic 4K bluegill imitation; effective around shallow cover where bluegill are present β docks, laydowns, and shallow grass edges; the detailed bluegill profile triggers territorial and feeding strikes from bass holding in bluegill habitat.
- 4K Shad β Hyper-realistic 4K shad imitation; effective in clear water where bass are keying on shad; the detailed scale pattern and realistic shad profile trigger strikes from sight-feeding bass in clear water conditions.
- Bluegill Spawn β Bluegill spawn color pattern; highly effective during the bluegill spawn (late spring through early summer) when bass are aggressively feeding on spawning bluegill around shallow cover and beds.
- Tiger Truese β Tiger pattern with Truese finish; effective attractor color for stained water and low-light conditions; tiger patterns provide high contrast and visibility in off-color water where natural imitation colors lose effectiveness.
- Boiled Crawfish β Boiled crawfish red/orange pattern; highly effective in spring when bass are feeding heavily on crawfish; red/orange tones trigger feeding strikes from bass keying on crawfish in rocky and hard-bottom shallow cover.
Best For
- Shallow Cover Fishing β Squarebill profile and 2β5 ft depth range are purpose-built for shallow cover β laydowns, dock posts, riprap banks, and shallow wood; the pivoting metal lip deflects off cover to change direction erratically and trigger reaction strikes from bass holding tight to structure.
- Reaction Strike Bass β Erratic Hunting Action and random side-to-side hunting movement trigger reaction strikes from bass that have seen standard squarebill retrieves; the unpredictable EHA action is most effective on pressured fish that ignore conventional crankbaits.
- Spring Bass Fishing β Boiled Crawfish and Bluegill Spawn colors for spring bass feeding on crawfish and spawning bluegill; 2β5 ft depth range covers the primary spring bass holding depth on shallow flats, points, and spawning areas.
- Stained Water β Louder underwater knock from the metal insert adds an acoustic trigger that helps bass locate the bait in stained or off-color water where visual triggers are reduced; Tiger Truese and Boiled Crawfish colors for maximum visibility in stained conditions.

The 6th Sense Flush 5.2 Soft Jerkbait was engineered in the 6th Sense Lure Lab with a level of anatomical detail that sets it apart from conventional soft jerkbaits. Every fin is accounted for β matching pectoral fins for balance and stability, a dorsal fin, anal fin, and a horizontal forked tail with a small ball at the base that produces the Flushβs signature action and keeps the bait tracking true on the fall and retrieve. The defining feature is the split dorsal fin that acts as a built-in weed guard for your hook β the origin of the name βFlush.β Pairs with a stout 5/0 Widegap hook. 5.2", 8 per pack.
Key Features
- Split Dorsal Fin β Built-In Weed Guard β The dorsal fin is equally separated to create a built-in weed guard that shields the hook point from grass, wood, and cover; allows the Flush to be fished through heavy cover that would snag a conventional exposed-hook soft jerkbait; the weed guard design is the origin of the name βFlushβ β the hook flushes against the body for a clean, snag-resistant profile.
- Ball-Base Forked Tail β Action & Stability β The horizontal forked tail incorporates a small ball at the base that produces the Flushβs signature darting, side-to-side action on the jerk; the ball creates resistance and pivot point that amplifies tail movement and keeps the bait stable and tracking true between jerks.
- Matching Pectoral Fins β Balance & Presentation β Anatomically correct pectoral fins keep the Flush balanced and level in the water column for a natural, horizontal presentation; the pectoral fins prevent the bait from rolling or listing on the fall and pause β critical for a realistic baitfish profile that triggers strikes from sight-feeding bass.
- Full Anatomical Fin Detail β Pectoral fins, dorsal fin, anal fin, and forked tail fins are all present and anatomically positioned; the complete fin package produces a realistic baitfish silhouette that matches the profile of shad, bluegill, and small panfish that bass key on in clear water conditions.
- 5/0 Widegap Hook Pairing β Designed to be paired with a stout 5/0 Widegap hook for maximum hookup ratio through the weed guard; the Widegap gap geometry provides clearance for the hook point to penetrate through the split dorsal weed guard on the hookset.
- 5.2" / 8 Per Pack β 5.2-inch body matches the profile of larger shad, bluegill, and baitfish that big bass key on; 8 baits per pack provides value for a soft plastic that can be rigged weedless and fished through heavy cover.
Color Guide
- Baby Crappie β Realistic baby crappie imitation; effective around shallow cover and docks where crappie are present as forage for larger bass; natural crappie pattern triggers feeding strikes from bass keying on panfish.
- Bluegill Magic β Bluegill imitation with magic finish; effective around shallow cover, docks, and grass edges where bluegill are the primary forage; highly effective during and after the bluegill spawn when bass are aggressively feeding on bluegill.
- Watermelon Candy Magic β Watermelon base with candy magic finish; versatile clear water color effective in a wide range of conditions; watermelon tones match the natural green hues of baitfish in clear water environments.
- Green Pumpkin Juice β Green pumpkin with juice finish; one of the most versatile soft plastic colors for bass fishing; effective in clear to lightly stained water across all seasons and conditions.
- Watermelon Red Sunfish β Watermelon base with red sunfish accents; effective around shallow cover where sunfish are present as forage; red accent tones add a trigger color that stands out in clear water conditions.
Best For
- Heavy Cover & Grass Fishing β Split dorsal weed guard allows the Flush to be fished through grass, laydowns, and heavy cover that would snag a conventional soft jerkbait; the weedless profile opens up cover that other soft jerkbaits canβt effectively fish.
- Clear Water Bass β Full anatomical fin detail and realistic baitfish profile trigger strikes from sight-feeding bass in clear water; natural colorways (Baby Crappie, Bluegill Magic, Watermelon Red Sunfish) match the forage profile that clear water bass key on.
- Finesse & Jerkbait Presentations β Ball-base forked tail produces action on a standard jerk-pause retrieve; fish on a weightless or lightly weighted hook for a slow, gliding fall that triggers strikes from suspended and lethargic bass.
- Dock & Shallow Structure Fishing β Weedless rigging and realistic panfish imitation colors (Baby Crappie, Bluegill Magic) make the Flush effective around docks and shallow structure where panfish are present as forage for larger bass.
The 6th Sense Quake 80SP Suspending Lipless Crankbait takes a fundamentally different approach to the standard lipless crankbait with a temperature-reactive suspension system that automatically adjusts hang time based on water temperature β suspending longer in cold water where fish are lethargic and require a longer pause to trigger strikes, and suspending shorter in warm water where fish are more active and a faster presentation is more effective. The result is a lipless crankbait that self-adjusts to the conditions without changing lures, making it a true year-round bait across all seasons.Β
Key Features
- Temperature-Reactive Suspension System β The defining innovation of the Quake 80SP; the suspension system is engineered to vary hang time with water temperature β longer pause in cold water (below 55Β°F) where bass are lethargic and need more time to commit, shorter pause in warm water (above 65Β°F) where bass are active and a faster presentation triggers more strikes; eliminates the need to switch between sinking and suspending lipless crankbaits as seasons change.
- Suspending (SP) Action β Unlike standard sinking lipless crankbaits that fall on the pause, the Quake 80SP achieves neutral buoyancy and hangs in the strike zone on the stop; the pause is the primary trigger for reaction strikes from bass that follow the bait but wonβt commit on a moving target β the suspending action gives fish the time they need to eat.
- Rip-Twitch-Pause Retrieve β Designed for a rip-then-twitch retrieve with a stop-and-go cadence; rip the bait to trigger reaction strikes, twitch to change direction and add erratic action, pause to let the suspension system work and give following fish time to commit; more versatile retrieve profile than a standard burn-and-kill lipless crankbait.
- Grass Flat & Flooded Grass Capable β Suspending action allows the Quake 80SP to be worked over grass flats and through flooded grass without the constant bottom contact and snag risk of a sinking lipless crankbait; pause the bait above the grass canopy to trigger strikes from bass holding just below the surface.
- Same Action as the Standard Quake 80 β Retains the proven tight, high-frequency vibration and action of the original Quake 80 lipless crankbait; the SP suspension system adds pause capability without sacrificing the retrieve action that makes the Quake 80 effective on a straight retrieve.
- Year-Round Versatility β Temperature-reactive suspension makes the Quake 80SP effective across all seasons β cold water winter and early spring fishing where a long pause is critical, transitional spring and fall fishing where variable pause times match changing fish activity levels, and warm water summer fishing where a shorter pause keeps the bait in the strike zone efficiently.
Color Guide
- Chrome Threadfin β High-flash chrome finish with threadfin shad imitation; maximum flash and realistic shad profile for clear water conditions where bass are keying on threadfin shad; effective on open water flats and main lake points where shad are the primary forage.
- Rayburn Ghost β Translucent ghost finish; effective in clear to lightly stained water where a more subtle, natural profile is preferred; ghost finishes allow light to pass through the body for a lifelike translucent baitfish appearance that triggers strikes from pressured bass.
Best For
- Cold Water Bass (Winter & Early Spring) β Temperature-reactive suspension system provides maximum hang time in cold water β the most critical period for suspending lipless crankbaits when bass are lethargic and require a long pause to trigger strikes; fish the Quake 80SP on a slow rip-pause retrieve over main lake points, channel edges, and submerged grass in 45β58Β°F water.
- Grass Flat Fishing β Suspending action allows the bait to be worked over and through grass flats without constant bottom contact; pause the bait just above the grass canopy to trigger strikes from bass holding in the grass; rip through the grass to trigger reaction strikes from bass buried in the vegetation.
- Transitional Season Fishing (Spring & Fall) β Temperature-reactive system automatically adjusts pause time as water temperatures fluctuate during spring and fall transitions; eliminates the need to constantly adjust retrieve cadence as daily water temperatures change β the bait self-adjusts to match fish activity levels.
- Pressured Bass β Stop-and-go retrieve and suspending pause give pressured bass a different look than the standard burn-and-kill lipless crankbait retrieve; the pause triggers strikes from fish that follow but wonβt commit on a moving bait.

The 6th Sense Cloud 9 C25 Deep Diving Crankbait is the most extreme model in the Cloud 9 lineup β engineered for the 23β27 foot depth range that no standard deep diver can reach without specialized tackle. At 3.75" and 1.9 oz, the C25 is the largest and heaviest crankbait in the Cloud 9 series, carrying the mass and bill surface area required to achieve true running depth at 23β27 ft while maintaining the stabilized action that keeps the bait tracking true at extreme depth. The pure shad color palette β five shad-focused colors with no attractor options β reflects the forage reality at 23β27 ft where shad are the only relevant forage in the open water column at these depths. The Cloud 9 series covers 8 to over 25 feet with four models, allowing anglers to precisely target any depth zone from shallow ledges to extreme deep water. 5 colors.
Key Features
- 23β27 ft True Running Depth β The deepest-running model in the Cloud 9 series and among the deepest-running production crankbaits available; the C25 designation targets the 23β27 foot depth zone that requires a long cast, heavy fluorocarbon (17β20 lb), and a medium-heavy to heavy baitcast setup to achieve on a standard retrieve; the bill geometry is engineered to achieve true running depth at 23β27 ft without requiring specialized deep cranking tackle.
- Unique Bill & Body Profile β Stabilized Action at 23β27 ft β The bill and body were co-engineered to maintain stabilized action at 23β27 ft β the most demanding engineering challenge in the Cloud 9 series; at extreme depth, the bill resistance and water pressure combine to destabilize most deep divers; the C25βs profile maintains consistent wobble and tracking through bottom contact and deflection off deep structure where other deep divers lose their action entirely.
- 3.75" / 1.9 oz β Maximum Deep Diving Mass β The largest and heaviest model in the Cloud 9 series; the 1.9 oz weight provides the casting mass and bill load needed to achieve 23β27 ft running depth on a standard retrieve; significantly heavier than the C20 (1.4 oz), C15 (1 oz), and C10 (5/8 oz); 3.75" body matches the profile of larger shad and baitfish that trophy bass key on in extreme deep water.
- Pure Shad Color Palette β All five C25 colors are shad-focused β Shad Sense, Threadfin Shad, Ghost Pro Shad, Wild Shad, and Shad-Treuse β reflecting the forage reality at 23β27 ft where shad are the only relevant forage in the open water column; at extreme depth, crawfish are not present in the water column and attractor colors lose effectiveness as light penetration diminishes; shad imitations and shad-adjacent colors are the only productive options at 23β27 ft.
Complete Cloud 9 Series Depth Guide

- Threadfin Shad β Accurate threadfin shad imitation; highly effective when threadfin shad are the primary forage on the fishery; threadfin shad are the dominant open water forage species on most major southern reservoirs where extreme deep ledge fishing is most productive.
- Ghost Pro Shad β Translucent ghost shad imitation; effective in clear water where the ghost finish mimics the natural translucency of shad at extreme depth; ghost finishes allow light to pass through the body for a lifelike appearance that triggers strikes from pressured bass on heavily fished deep ledges.
- Wild Shad β Wild shad pattern; effective in clear to lightly stained water for bass keying on shad in open water at extreme depth; provides a slightly different shad profile than standard imitations for pressured fish that have seen conventional shad colors on heavily fished ledges.
- Shad-Treuse β Shad and chartreuse combination; the only color in the C25 lineup with added visibility; effective in lightly stained water where a shad profile with added chartreuse visibility outperforms pure natural shad imitations; bridges the gap between natural imitation and attractor at depths where pure attractor colors are no longer effective.
Best For
- Extreme Deep Ledge Fishing (23β27 ft) β The primary application for the C25; drag the bait along the top of the deepest available ledge at 23β27 ft to trigger strikes from bass stacked on the deepest ledge drops during peak summer; the C25 reaches depths that no other Cloud 9 model β or most production crankbaits β can access on standard tackle.
- Open Water Shad Schools at Extreme Depth β Pure shad color palette and 3.75" profile for targeting bass feeding on shad schools suspended in open water at 23β27 ft; the C25βs depth range allows it to reach suspended bass that are holding below the depth range of every other Cloud 9 model.
- Peak Summer Trophy Bass β Trophy bass often hold on the deepest available structure during peak summer heat; the C25βs 23β27 ft depth range and 3.75" profile target the biggest bass that hold at the extreme depth zone where most anglers cannot reach with conventional deep diving crankbaits.
- Heavily Pressured Ledges β On heavily fished ledges where bass have seen every standard deep diver presentation, the C25 reaches a depth zone that most anglers are not fishing; bass that have been caught and released on C10 and C15 presentations often drop to deeper structure β the C25 targets the depth zone where pressured fish relocate.

The 6th Sense Crush 50X Squarebill Crankbait is the finesse-sized squarebill in the Crush series β a 2.25", 3/8 oz profile built for the same shallow cover applications as the larger 100X but with a smaller baitfish profile that matches juvenile shad, small bluegill, and smaller forage that bass key on in clear water and pressured conditions. Designed for crashing thick shallow cover, ripping out of grass, deflecting off rocks, and burning in open water in the 2β5 foot depth range. The 50X finish delivers 3D gill plates, 3D eyes, and 3D scales for a hyper-realistic baitfish appearance, paired with sharp black nickel hooks. 12 colors.
Key Features
- Finesse Squarebill Profile β 2.25" / 3/8 oz β Smaller body and lighter weight than the Crush 100X (2.67", 5/8 oz) for matching smaller baitfish profiles and fishing lighter line; the 3/8 oz weight is ideal for lighter spinning or baitcast setups where the 5/8 oz 100X is too heavy; smaller profile triggers strikes from bass keying on juvenile shad and small bluegill in clear water and pressured conditions.
- Shallow Cover Design β 2β5 ft Depth β Squarebill profile and 2β5 ft running depth for shallow cover fishing; the square bill deflects off wood, rocks, and hard cover to change direction erratically and trigger reaction strikes from bass holding tight to structure; effective crashing laydowns, dock posts, riprap banks, and rocky points in the 2β5 foot zone.
- Grass Ripping Capability β Designed to be ripped through submerged grass and vegetation; the squarebill profile and 3/8 oz weight allow the bait to punch through grass and emerge cleanly on the rip, triggering reaction strikes from bass holding in and around the grass canopy.
- 3D Gill Plates, 3D Eyes & 3D Scales β The 50X finish package includes three-dimensional gill plates, eyes, and scales that create a hyper-realistic baitfish profile; the full 3D detail package produces a lifelike appearance that triggers strikes from sight-feeding bass in clear water conditions where bait realism is a critical factor.
- Premium Black Nickel Hooks β Sharp black nickel treble hooks for maximum hookup ratio on shallow cover strikes; black nickel finish provides corrosion resistance and a low-visibility hook profile that doesnβt detract from the baitβs natural appearance.
Crush 50X vs. Crush 100X β Which Size?
- Crush 50X (2.25", 3/8 oz) β Finesse profile for matching smaller forage, fishing lighter line, clear water conditions, and pressured bass that have seen the larger profile; better suited for spinning gear and lighter baitcast setups.
- Crush 100X (2.67", 5/8 oz) β Larger profile for matching bigger baitfish, heavier cover, and situations where maximum deflection force and casting distance are needed; better suited for medium-heavy baitcast setups.
Color Guide

The 6th Sense Speed Wake was engineered to wake the surface at the highest possible speed without blowout β the defining challenge of wake bait design. Most wake baits lose their action and blow out of the water at faster retrieve speeds; the Speed Wake maintains a consistent, tight surface wake from a slow crawl to a high-speed burn, making it effective across a wider range of retrieve speeds than conventional wake baits. Waking this bait over grass, stumps, laydowns, or open clear water calls up the most aggressive topwater strikes bass will deliver. Equipped with premium black nickel hooks, 3D eyes, and realistic gill plate features.
Key Features
- High-Speed Wake Without Blowout β The core engineering achievement of the Speed Wake; designed to maintain a consistent surface wake at the highest possible retrieve speeds without blowing out of the water; allows anglers to vary retrieve speed aggressively to match fish activity levels without losing the baitβs action β critical during warm water periods when fast presentations trigger more strikes than a slow crawl.
- Surface Wake Over Any Cover β Effective waked over grass flats, stumps, laydowns, and open clear water; the consistent wake action at variable speeds allows the bait to be fished over a wide range of cover types and water conditions without adjusting technique; the surface disturbance calls up bass from depth and cover to strike at the surface.
- Premium Black Nickel Hooks β Super sharp black nickel treble hooks for maximum hookup ratio on topwater strikes; black nickel finish provides corrosion resistance and a low-visibility hook profile that doesnβt detract from the baitβs natural appearance.
- 3D Eyes & Realistic Gill Plate β Three-dimensional eyes and detailed gill plate features provide a lifelike baitfish appearance that triggers strikes from sight-feeding bass; realistic detail complements the surface wake action for a complete visual and motion trigger package.
Color
- Black Magic β High-contrast black finish; the most effective wake bait color in low-light conditions, overcast skies, and night fishing; black silhouette provides maximum contrast against the sky when viewed from below β the primary angle bass use to target surface prey; also effective in stained water where dark colors provide better visibility than natural imitation finishes.
Best For
- Fast Retrieve Topwater β The Speed Wakeβs no-blowout design is most valuable when a fast retrieve is needed to trigger reaction strikes from active bass; burn the bait across the surface during the post-spawn and summer periods when bass are aggressively chasing baitfish in open water and over shallow flats.
- Grass Flat Fishing β Wake the Speed Wake over submerged grass flats to call up bass holding just below the surface; the surface disturbance triggers reaction strikes from bass that are aware of the bait but holding tight to the grass canopy.
- Low-Light & Night Fishing β Black Magic color provides maximum silhouette contrast in low-light conditions; wake baits are among the most effective night fishing lures for bass β the surface disturbance and consistent wake create a sound and visual profile that bass can locate in complete darkness.
- Pressured Bass β High-speed wake presentation gives pressured bass a different look than standard slow-rolled wake baits; the faster retrieve triggers reaction strikes from fish that have seen conventional topwater presentations and ignored them.

The 6th Sense Cloud 9 MiniMag Squarebill Crankbait is built around an oversized magnum body profile that generates greater drawing power and a harder-kicking action than standard squarebill crankbaits β a bigger visual and pressure wave that pulls bass from deeper in the cover and from greater distances. The MiniMag dives 3β6 feet, running slightly deeper than the Crush series squarebills (2β5 ft) for targeting the mid-depth zone where bass hold on deeper laydowns, submerged points, and dock pilings. Equipped with premium paint finishes, 3D gill plates, realistic eyes, and sharp black nickel treble hooks. 2.6", 5/8 oz, 6 colors.
Key Features
- Oversized Magnum Body Profile β The MiniMagβs defining characteristic is its oversized body relative to its weight class; the larger profile displaces more water, generates a bigger pressure wave, and produces a harder-kicking action that draws bass from deeper in cover and from greater distances than a standard squarebill of the same weight; effective when bass are keying on larger forage or when a bigger profile is needed to trigger strikes from lethargic fish.
- 3β6 ft Depth Range β Dives 3β6 feet on a standard retrieve β deeper than the Crush 50X and 100X squarebills (2β5 ft) for targeting the mid-depth zone; effective on deeper laydowns, submerged dock pilings, deeper riprap banks, and mid-depth points where bass hold below the 2β5 ft squarebill range.
- Hard-Kicking Squarebill Action β Aggressive, wide-wobble squarebill action that deflects hard off cover to change direction erratically and trigger reaction strikes; the oversized body amplifies the deflection response when the bill contacts wood, rock, and hard cover β producing a more dramatic direction change than a smaller squarebill body.
- 3D Gill Plates & Realistic Eyes β Three-dimensional gill plates and realistic eyes provide a lifelike baitfish appearance that triggers strikes from sight-feeding bass in clear water; premium paint finishes complement the 3D detail for a complete visual trigger package.
- Black Nickel Treble Hooks β Super sharp black nickel treble hooks for maximum hookup ratio on squarebill strikes; black nickel finish provides corrosion resistance and a low-visibility hook profile that doesnβt detract from the baitβs natural appearance.
- 2.6" / 5/8 oz β Compact body length with 5/8 oz weight for casting distance and cover penetration; the weight-to-size ratio produces the oversized profile and hard-kicking action that defines the MiniMag without sacrificing castability on medium-heavy baitcast setups.
MiniMag vs. Crush Series β Which Squarebill?
- Cloud 9 MiniMag (2.6", 5/8 oz, 3β6 ft) β Oversized magnum profile for greater drawing power and deeper running depth; best when bass are holding in the 3β6 ft zone or when a bigger profile is needed to trigger strikes.
- Crush 100X (2.67", 5/8 oz, 2β5 ft) β Similar size and weight but shallower running depth; best for the 2β5 ft zone with the 100X hyper-realistic 3D scale finish.
- Crush 50X (2.25", 3/8 oz, 2β5 ft) β Finesse profile for lighter line, smaller forage matching, and clear water/pressured bass in the 2β5 ft zone.
Color Guide
- Ghost Shad Scales β Translucent ghost finish with shad scale detail; effective in clear water where a subtle, natural profile is preferred; ghost finishes allow light to pass through the body for a lifelike translucent baitfish appearance that triggers strikes from pressured bass.
- Shad Craft β Realistic shad craft imitation; effective in clear to lightly stained water when shad are the primary forage; detailed shad profile triggers strikes from sight-feeding bass keying on baitfish in open water and over shallow structure.
- Wild Shad β Wild shad pattern; effective in clear to lightly stained water for bass keying on shad; provides a slightly different shad profile than standard chrome finishes for pressured fish that have seen conventional shad colors.
- Boiled Craw β Boiled crawfish red/orange pattern; highly effective in spring when bass are feeding heavily on crawfish; red/orange tones trigger feeding strikes from bass keying on crawfish in rocky and hard-bottom shallow cover.
- Baby Crappie β Realistic baby crappie imitation; effective around shallow cover and docks where crappie are present as forage for larger bass; the oversized MiniMag profile is well-suited for matching the larger crappie profile that big bass key on.
- Craw Bomb β Crawfish bomb pattern; highly effective in spring when bass are feeding heavily on crawfish; red/orange tones trigger feeding strikes from bass keying on crawfish in rocky and hard-bottom areas.
Best For
- Mid-Depth Shallow Cover (3β6 ft) β The 3β6 ft depth range fills the gap between standard shallow squarebills (2β5 ft) and medium-diving crankbaits (8β12 ft); effective on deeper laydowns, submerged dock pilings, deeper riprap banks, and mid-depth points where bass hold below the standard squarebill range.
- Drawing Bass from Deep Cover β Oversized magnum profile and hard-kicking action generate a bigger pressure wave that pulls bass from deeper in cover and from greater distances; most effective when bass are buried in heavy cover and need a bigger visual and vibration trigger to commit to a strike.
- Spring Bass Fishing β Boiled Craw and Craw Bomb colors for spring bass feeding on crawfish; 3β6 ft depth range covers the mid-depth zone where pre-spawn and post-spawn bass hold on deeper structure adjacent to spawning flats.
- Pressured Bass β Oversized profile and hard-kicking action give pressured bass a different look and feel than standard squarebill presentations; Ghost Shad Scales and Wild Shad for clear water pressured fish that have seen conventional squarebill colors.

The 6th Sense Cloud 9 C10 Deep Diving Crankbait is built for the deep water applications where bass fishing is won and lost β ledge fishing, offshore structure, submerged points, and channel edges in the 8β12 foot depth range. The unique bill and body profile was engineered to achieve true running depth without the tracking instability that plagues many deep divers at speed; the stabilized action keeps the bait inside the strike zone on the retrieve rather than rolling or blowing out when it contacts bottom or structure. 2.65", 5/8 oz, 8 colors.
Key Features
- 8β12 ft True Running Depth β The C10 designation targets the 8β12 foot depth range β the primary depth zone for ledge fishing and offshore structure bass during summer and fall; the bill geometry is engineered to achieve true running depth on a standard retrieve without requiring long casts or heavy line to reach the target depth.
- Unique Bill & Body Profile β Stabilized Action β The bill and body were co-engineered to maintain stabilized action at depth; many deep diving crankbaits lose their action and roll or blow out when they contact bottom or structure at depth β the Cloud 9 C10βs profile maintains consistent wobble and tracking through bottom contact and deflection off structure.
- True Running Depth β Engineered to run at the stated depth range on standard tackle; eliminates the guesswork of deep divers that run shallower than advertised; the C10 reaches 8β12 ft on a standard medium-heavy baitcast setup with 12β17 lb fluorocarbon, allowing anglers to precisely target depth zones on ledges and structure.
- Premium Color Schemes β Color palette developed specifically for deep water applications where light penetration and water clarity affect color visibility at depth; crawfish patterns (Wild Lava Crawfish, Gravel Craw, Ghost Melon Crawfish) for bottom-contact structure fishing, shad patterns (Ghost Pro Shad, Shad Sense) for open water ledge fishing, and high-visibility attractor colors (Chartreuse Pro Blue, Sexified Chartreuse Shad, Lavender Citrus) for stained water and low-light conditions.
- 2.65" / 5/8 oz β Standard deep diving crankbait size for bass fishing; 5/8 oz provides the casting distance needed to reach offshore structure and the bill load needed to achieve 8β12 ft running depth on a standard retrieve; 2.65" body matches the profile of shad and baitfish in the mid-size range that bass key on in deep water.

- Shad Sense β Realistic shad sense imitation; effective in clear to lightly stained water for ledge fishing when bass are keying on shad; detailed shad profile triggers strikes from sight-feeding bass on open water ledges and offshore structure.
- Gravel Craw β Gravel crawfish imitation; effective for bottom-contact fishing on gravel and rock structure where crawfish are present; gravel tones match the natural coloration of crawfish on rocky bottom structure in clear water conditions.
- Ghost Melon Crawfish β Translucent ghost melon crawfish pattern; effective in clear water where a subtle, natural crawfish profile is preferred; ghost finish provides a lifelike translucent appearance that triggers strikes from pressured bass on heavily fished ledges.
- Sexified Chartreuse Shad β High-visibility chartreuse shad; most effective in stained water and low-light conditions where chartreuse provides maximum visibility at depth; chartreuse shad combination provides both the visibility of an attractor color and the profile of a natural shad imitation.
Best For
- Ledge Fishing β The primary application for the Cloud 9 C10; drag the bait along the top of a ledge at 8β12 ft and let it deflect off the edge to trigger strikes from bass stacked on ledge drops during summer and fall; shad patterns (Ghost Pro Shad, Shad Sense) for clear water ledges, chartreuse patterns for stained water ledges.
- Offshore Structure Fishing β Submerged points, humps, channel edges, and rock piles in the 8β12 ft range; the stabilized action maintains consistent wobble through bottom contact and structure deflection β critical for keeping the bait in the strike zone on irregular bottom structure.
- Summer & Fall Deep Bass β Bass move to deep structure during summer heat and fall transitions; the C10βs 8β12 ft depth range covers the primary summer and fall holding depth on most reservoirs and impoundments; crawfish patterns for bottom-contact structure, shad patterns for open water ledge fishing.
- Stained Water Deep Fishing β Chartreuse Pro Blue, Sexified Chartreuse Shad, and Lavender Citrus for stained water conditions where high-visibility attractor colors are needed to compensate for reduced light penetration at depth; chartreuse tones remain visible at 8β12 ft in stained water where natural imitation colors become invisible.

The 6th Sense Quake Thud 70 Lipless Crankbait delivers an action and sound profile unlike any conventional lipless crankbait through two structural innovations: a dual flat back design that grabs more water and amplifies vibration on the retrieve, and the proprietary THUD knocker system that produces an intense, low-frequency knocking sound fundamentally different from the high-pitched rattle of traditional BB-style lipless crankbaits. The result is a power fishing lipless crankbait that stands out in pressured water where bass have heard every standard rattle. 70mm, 1/2 oz, black nickel hooks. 10 colors.
Key Features
- Dual Flat Back Design β The flat back geometry is the structural foundation of the Quake Thudβs differentiated action; the dual flat surfaces grab more water during the retrieve than a conventional rounded lipless crankbait body, increasing the resistance and amplifying the vibration transmitted through the line to the anglerβs hand; more water displacement also increases the pressure wave the bait produces, making it detectable by bass at greater distances through their lateral line.
- THUD Knocker System β The THUD knocker produces an intense, low-frequency knocking sound that is uniquely different from the high-pitched rattle of traditional BB-style lipless crankbaits; the lower frequency sound travels farther through the water column and is more effective in stained water and cold water conditions where bass rely more heavily on sound and vibration than visual triggers to locate prey.
- Power Fishing Capability β Dual flat back vibration and THUD knocker sound system are optimized for power fishing applications β burning the bait on a fast retrieve to cover water quickly, yo-yo jigging over grass and structure, and ripping through vegetation to trigger reaction strikes; the amplified vibration and knocker sound maintain effectiveness at high retrieve speeds where conventional lipless crankbaits lose their trigger profile.
- Black Nickel Hooks β Super sharp black nickel treble hooks for maximum hookup ratio on power fishing strikes; black nickel finish provides corrosion resistance and a low-visibility hook profile that doesnβt detract from the baitβs natural appearance.
- 70mm / 1/2 oz β Standard lipless crankbait size for bass fishing across a wide range of conditions; 1/2 oz provides the casting distance needed to cover water efficiently on open flats, points, and grass edges; 70mm body matches the profile of shad and baitfish in the 2β3 inch range that bass key on throughout the year.

- Black N Blue Craw β Black and blue crawfish pattern; highly effective in stained water and cold water conditions; black/blue combination provides maximum contrast and matches the coloration of crawfish in cold, dark water environments.
Best For
- Power Fishing & Covering Water β Dual flat back vibration and THUD knocker are optimized for burning the bait on a fast retrieve to cover water quickly on open flats, main lake points, and grass edges; the amplified vibration maintains effectiveness at high retrieve speeds where conventional lipless crankbaits lose their trigger profile.
- Grass Fishing & Yo-Yo Jigging β 1/2 oz weight and lipless profile for yo-yo jigging over submerged grass and structure; rip the bait up through the grass canopy and let it flutter back down on a slack line to trigger strikes from bass holding just below the surface.
- Cold Water & Winter Bass β THUD knockerβs low-frequency sound is most effective in cold water where bass rely more heavily on sound and vibration than visual triggers; slow-roll or yo-yo the Quake Thud over main lake points and channel edges in 45β58Β°F water for cold water bass.
- Pressured Bass β THUD knocker sound profile is fundamentally different from the BB rattle that pressured bass have heard from every other lipless crankbait; the differentiated sound triggers strikes from fish that have ignored conventional lipless crankbait presentations.
