Description

The 6th Sense Swank Series takes shallow cranking to a new level of power and precision. Whether you're targeting submerged vegetation, grass lines, or shallow structure, both models in the Swank lineup deliver unmatched performance with their unique L-shaped bill design and aggressive swimming action. The Swank 66X is the finesse version—measuring 60mm and weighing 1/2oz. Its tighter profile and erratic horizontal action make it ideal for ripping over grass or burning through shallow cover. A loud internal knocker helps call in fish from distance, making it deadly when visibility is limited. The Swank 77X steps it up in size and power. At 77mm and 3/4oz, it dives to the same 2–5ft range but moves more water with a wider profile and stronger thump. Built for covering more water quickly, the 77X is perfect for power fishing scenarios where a larger presence is needed. Both models come equipped with premium paint schemes, super sharp black nickel hooks, and the ability to rip clean through hydrilla and grass beds without losing their strike-triggering motion. Specs 66X: Length: 60mm (2.36in) Weight: 1/2oz Dives: 2–5ft Hook Size: #4 77X: Length: 77mm (3.03in) Weight: 3/4oz Dives: 2–5ft Hook Size: #2

Field Notes

A shallow squarebill-style crankbait for covering water over grass lines, submerged vegetation, and shallow structure. The tighter 66X is better for ripping free from cover, while the 77X adds more thump and profile for power fishing. Use a steady retrieve, deflections off cover, or a burn-and-rip cadence when fish are active.

Pros

  • L-shaped bill helps it track and deflect through shallow cover
  • Aggressive swimming action with strong fish-attracting vibration
  • Internal knocker adds sound for low-visibility conditions

Cons

  • Best suited to shallow water only
  • Can be too aggressive for highly pressured or ultra-clear situations
