wdp Posted May 28, 2017 Posted May 28, 2017 Took off work yesterday & fished, then fished again today at one of my fav small lakes. I've been dying to try one of the 6th Sense cranks I got during the holidays. Had a pretty good 2 days with about 30 bass total. Caught a few on a Baby 1- also, but the 3 biggest all came on the Movement 80x crank. Caught a 3'15", a 4 lbs even, and then this beauty this evening. She weighed 9'4" and was 24" long. Released back to the water. Needless to say, I'm digging this 6th Sense shallow crank. EDIT: Decided to add a little info on the crank. Let me preface this by saying that I usually have really good luck at this lake burning & pausing a Baby 1-. This 6th Sense crank has a wide wobble & a lot of thump. I mean a lot! Kinda makes it hard to burn, so I was having best results using a medium retrieve with sporadic pauses. On 15 lb Invisx, I'd say the bait ran about 2 - 2.5 ft deep. Thanks to fellow angler & bass resource member Dennis (who I just met on water today) for being there & was nice enough to get a few photos. Sorry Dennis, I don't remember your user name or I would tag you. 23 Quote

Bass & Boilermakers Posted May 28, 2017 Posted May 28, 2017 That's a real bucket mouth if I've ever seen one. Maybe I'll have to try the Movement 80x out. What color were you throwing? 2 Quote

Super User smalljaw67 Posted May 28, 2017 Super User Posted May 28, 2017 Thanks for that report, I've been contemplating getting a few of those. I wasn't sure how it would work since it stays more level than a traditional shallow crank but there are certain baits that draw big fish and this seems to be one of them, thanks for sharing and congrats on the giant!!!!! 1 Quote
jr231 Posted May 28, 2017 Posted May 28, 2017 Those are the ones that make the heart race when you see her side for the first time. Nice job. 1 Quote
Big Swimbait Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Great job! The Movement 80X is an awesome bait. IMO, the entire line catches fish. Their big glide bait is one of my favs. 1 Quote

Super User Crestliner2008 Posted May 29, 2017 Super User Posted May 29, 2017 Congrats! Great largemouth for sure. Imagine what that fish will weigh once it's body catches up with it's head! 1 Quote
Super User lmbfisherman Posted May 29, 2017 Super User Posted May 29, 2017 Congratulations, sounds like the bait monkey is in my ear....you must get one! 1 Quote
wdp Posted May 29, 2017 Author Posted May 29, 2017 Thanks everybody. This is prob the 2nd biggest I've ever caught. Still trying to catch one that is 10+ which isn't easy to do in MS, especially fishing smaller waters outta a 12 ft jon boat. But I've gotten close a few times. Hoping to get a replica made once I accomplish the goal. 1 Quote
