6th Sense Cloud 9 C15 Deep Diving Crankbait

The 6th Sense Cloud 9 C15 Deep Diving Crankbait is the deepest-running model in the Cloud 9 series — engineered for the 13–17 foot depth range where bass stack on deep ledges, offshore humps, and submerged structure during summer and fall. The unique bill and body profile achieves true running depth at 13–17 ft while maintaining the stabilized action needed to stay in the strike zone through bottom contact and structure deflection — the engineering challenge that separates a functional deep diver from one that rolls and blows out at depth. At 3" and 1 oz, the C15 carries the mass needed to load a long-cast deep diving bill and reach depths that lighter crankbaits cannot access on standard tackle. 2 colors.

Key Features

• 13–17 ft True Running Depth — The deepest-running model in the Cloud 9 lineup; the C15 designation targets the 13–17 foot depth zone — the primary holding depth for bass on deep ledges and offshore structure during summer and fall on most major reservoirs; the bill geometry is engineered to achieve true running depth on a standard long cast with 12–17 lb fluorocarbon on a medium-heavy baitcast setup.
• Unique Bill & Body Profile — Stabilized Action at Depth — The bill and body were co-engineered to maintain stabilized action at 13–17 ft; deep diving crankbaits are prone to rolling and blowing out at depth when they contact bottom or structure — the Cloud 9 C15’s profile maintains consistent wobble and tracking through bottom contact and deflection off deep structure where stabilized action is most critical.
• 3" / 1 oz — Deep Diving Mass — The 1 oz weight provides the casting mass needed to load a long-cast deep diving bill and reach 13–17 ft on a standard retrieve; heavier than the C10 (5/8 oz) to compensate for the additional bill resistance required to achieve the deeper running depth; 3" body matches the profile of larger shad and baitfish that bass key on in deep water during summer and fall.
• Premium Color Schemes for Deep Water — Color palette developed for deep water applications where light penetration affects color visibility at 13–17 ft; Crimson Craw for bottom-contact structure fishing where crawfish are the primary forage on deep rocky structure, Baby Crappie for open water ledge fishing where crappie and larger baitfish are present as forage for big bass.

Cloud 9 Series Depth Comparison

Color Guide

• Crimson Craw — Crimson crawfish pattern; effective for bottom-contact fishing on deep rocky and hard-bottom structure where crawfish are the primary forage; crimson tones provide high contrast and visibility at 13–17 ft in stained water while matching the coloration of active crawfish on deep structure.
• Baby Crappie — Realistic baby crappie imitation; effective for open water ledge fishing where crappie and larger baitfish are present as forage for big bass; the larger 3" C15 profile is well-suited for matching the crappie and larger baitfish profile that trophy bass key on in deep water during summer and fall.

Best For

• Deep Ledge Fishing (13–17 ft) — The primary application for the C15; drag the bait along the top of a deep ledge at 13–17 ft and let it deflect off the edge to trigger strikes from bass stacked on deep ledge drops during summer and fall; the C15 reaches depths that the C10 (8–12 ft) cannot access on standard tackle.
• Offshore Humps & Deep Structure — Submerged humps, deep channel edges, and offshore rock piles in the 13–17 ft range; the stabilized action maintains consistent wobble through bottom contact on irregular deep structure — critical for keeping the bait in the strike zone at depths where most crankbaits lose their action.
• Summer & Fall Deep Bass — Bass move to the deepest available structure during peak summer heat; the C15’s 13–17 ft depth range covers the deepest summer holding zones on most major reservoirs; Crimson Craw for rocky deep structure, Baby Crappie for open water ledges where larger forage is present.
• Trophy Bass Targeting — The larger 3" profile and deep running depth target the biggest bass that hold on the deepest available structure during summer; big bass often hold deeper than average-sized fish on the same ledge — the C15 reaches the depth zone where trophy fish are most likely to be holding.
