From their striking finishes to the free-floating rattle chambers that emit varying sound frequencies, it's easy to see why these Strike King Pro-Model XD Series cranks are so popular with the pros.
''This thing is amazing. When it gets down to its running depth it moves back and forth as it travels along. It looks like it's hunting or rooting or searching for something. It may be the most realistic action I've ever seen in a crankbait.

I love to throw crankbaits anywhere I can. I already have a series 6,which dives down to 15 ft. I am wandering if I should also get the 5XD, which also dives down to 15 ft. I heard that the size difference is important, but I am wandering if a 1/4 inch in length is really that important.
There are times and conditions that a 1/4 in. can make all the difference in the world. Use "Match the hatch" as a rule when choosing a crank bait and try to choose one that is close to the same size as the bait fish on that body of water.
The fish will tell you that. I use the 6XD as a summer crankbait and it is superb. As with any bait, you are trying to match the size of the forage and the closer you get to that the better off you are. I'd use the larger bait in summer and fall.
