6th Sense Cloud 9 MiniMag Squarebill Crankbait

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 — a bigger visual and pressure wave that pulls bass from deeper in the cover and from greater distances. The MiniMag dives 3–6 feet, running slightly deeper than the Crush series squarebills (2–5 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 — The MiniMag’s 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.
• 3–6 ft Depth Range — Dives 3–6 feet on a standard retrieve — deeper than the Crush 50X and 100X squarebills (2–5 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 2–5 ft squarebill range.
• Hard-Kicking Squarebill Action — 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 — producing a more dramatic direction change than a smaller squarebill body.
• 3D Gill Plates & Realistic Eyes — 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 — 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 doesn’t detract from the bait’s natural appearance.
• 2.6" / 5/8 oz — 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 — Which Squarebill?

• Cloud 9 MiniMag (2.6", 5/8 oz, 3–6 ft) — Oversized magnum profile for greater drawing power and deeper running depth; best when bass are holding in the 3–6 ft zone or when a bigger profile is needed to trigger strikes.
• Crush 100X (2.67", 5/8 oz, 2–5 ft) — Similar size and weight but shallower running depth; best for the 2–5 ft zone with the 100X hyper-realistic 3D scale finish.
• Crush 50X (2.25", 3/8 oz, 2–5 ft) — Finesse profile for lighter line, smaller forage matching, and clear water/pressured bass in the 2–5 ft zone.

Color Guide

• Ghost Shad Scales — 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 — 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 — 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 — 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 — 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 — 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 (3–6 ft) — The 3–6 ft depth range fills the gap between standard shallow squarebills (2–5 ft) and medium-diving crankbaits (8–12 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 — 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 — Boiled Craw and Craw Bomb colors for spring bass feeding on crawfish; 3–6 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 — 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.
