Overview
Built for anglers working deeper water, this crankbait is designed to get down quickly with the curved bill profile of the XD series. Its free-floating rattle chamber with one solid rattle adds a distinct knock intended to change the bait’s sound profile. In Chartreuse Blue Crystal, it suits situations where a deep-running crankbait is needed to cover water and present a different acoustic cue. It is a focused option for fishing deeper structure when a standard shallow diver is not the right tool.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed as a deep-diving crankbait, so it is more specialized than shallow- or mid-depth options when fish are not holding deep.
- The hard-knock sound profile is a distinct presentation choice; it may be useful in some situations but is not the quietest option.
- The curved-bill XD design is built to dive deeper and faster, which can also mean more resistance and a more demanding retrieve than lighter-running crankbaits.
- Color and sound are key parts of this bait’s appeal, so effectiveness can depend on matching the presentation to conditions and fish mood.
