6th sense is a copy of everything else just like BPS copies everything Are you sure you aren't getting the Googan hard baits mixed up with the 6th Sense ones? 6th Sense crank baits are very good quality. You have to be careful with them because they only use quality very sticky sharp hooks, unlike most of the other crank baits on the market.

The only "problem" I have with them is that they are all made in China. Then again most all of them probably are with a few exceptions.

The plain and simple fact is, most hard bodied baits are made in China. If they were made in the USA, then you would be saying “I like 6th Sense baits, but I am not paying $16.99 for a square bill”!!!!!!!!

I just checked my Crank Bait Box and all of the 6th Sense are made in China as are the Strike King 8XD's. Every Strike King 6XD is made in Costa Rica.

Tackle Warehouse! If they don’t have it, I probably don’t need it. You need to check out Discount Tackle out of Fla. Red state, super quick ship and unlike Tackle Warehouse, they didn't take forever to ship during the pandemic since they are located in Newsome Cali land. Even the Tactical Bassin guys from Cali got the hell out of there and moved to Tennessee.

I’ll start buying 6th sense. Right now it’s pretty much all strike king and zoom.
What other local companies are good for baits. For crankbaits/hard swimbaits 6th sense Riveratackle—his crankbaits are works of art Xcite—very good square bills Smash tech—I have one of their glide baits—excellent Gandy’s Soft plastics Bonehead tackle Xcite Smash tech Riveratackle Grandebass Creme MPack lures Lake Fork Trophy lures Kcinjection Wave Kalin Double ZZ Hag’s tornado Jigs/spinnerbaits/bladed jigs Oldham Stanley Santone Donald Harper Papa’s baits MPack lures Talon Spitfire Toad Wrangler Louisiana—Mister Twister, H&H, Bill Lewis Oklahoma—Hart Tackle, Larew, Terminator We are working on growing Mister Twister here in Texas as well. Lots of new baits out by them and even more in the making.

Walmart in granbury is carrying 6th sense hooks and cranks. I just bought some crush 50x squarebills today as a matter of fact. Best hooks and they flat out work. Great colors. In my opinion, one of the best out of the box cranks out there for a decent price.

I noticed the Cabela’s in Fort Worth doesn’t carry SPRO frogs. They have an entire aisle dedicated to frogs but no SPRO. I usually can’t find everything on my list when I go to Cabela’s and wish I had gone to Academy... and swear I’ll just shop online from now on.
I, too, get Cabela’s gift cards every year and have a hard time using them. I appreciate the gifts but often dislike the selection and prices at Cabela’s and Bass Pro.
Tackle Warehouse needs to move out of California. I just can’t buy from California based companies when I have a choice.
I try to buy direct from Texas companies when I can. I bought some items direct from Santone recently at good prices with fast shipping.

I actually threw bout 10 away cause of messed up bodies and bills that was causing running issues. The only 6th sense cranks that were good I thought was the Md250’s? I think that’s what they was called but they quit making them. Probably the best med diver cranks they made. The square bills I’ve never been a fan boy of like some have been. Little to no action no matter what I tried. I’m a huge square bill guy so I’m constantly trying to find something better but they didn’t impress me. Those googan baits and guys are a complete joke but they seem to have tricked the younger guys into liking them

I love 6th Sense and will continue to use all their products. Been using them since before most people knew they existed. They make great products and are owned by a great guy , who built it from scratch.
