Pro Model Silent 6XD Crankbait by Strike King
The Strike King Pro Model Silent 6XD Crankbait features a large deep-diving design with a unique curved bill, allowing it to reach deeper depths faster than most other crankbaits. This silent version offers a fresh approach to targeting deeper fish, maintaining the original's performance minus the rattles. It's ideal for situations where bass are skittish, and a subtle presentation is crucial for success.
Renowned angler Kevin Van Dam relies on the Strike King 6XD Silent Crankbait for deep water bass fishing. He famously used it to secure his 2010 victory at the Bassmaster Elite Series event on Kentucky Lake. At a previous Elite Series event at Lake Guntersville, he discovered that when bass became wary of the standard Series 6XD, switching to the Silent 6XD re-engaged them, leading to significant catches. This crankbait was instrumental in his success, helping him catch some of his largest bass throughout the competition.
