Strike King
The Strike King Series 5XD in Citrus is a deep diving crankbait built to reach water column zones where larger bass suspend. At 5/8 ounces, this hard bait combines a distinctive curved bill design with internal free-floating rattles to generate the depth and acoustic profile needed for serious deep structure work. Whether you're probing creek channels, bluff drops, or offshore ledges, the 5XD's geometry lets you reach down fast and stay in the strike zone longer than conventional crankbaits.
What sets the 5XD apart is its ability to achieve both depth and speed. The curved bill geometry doesn't just look different—it fundamentally changes how the bait tracks through the water column. You get a lure that dives efficiently to 15 feet and maintains a tight, responsive action at cruising speed or on the pause. The free-floating internal rattles emit varying sound frequencies as the bait works, creating a rattle pattern that adapts to your retrieve rhythm and helps bass locate the lure in low-light or murky conditions.
The Citrus color pattern is a proven selection for clear to moderately stained water, offering visibility and a natural forage appearance. Pair this crankbait with a medium heavy casting rod and monofilament or fluorocarbon line for the best depth control and response. It's a workhorse for anglers targeting deep bass in reservoirs, lakes, and rivers where a confident, aggressive presentation pays off.
| Weight | 5/8 oz |
| Color | Citrus |
| Dive Depth | 15 feet |
| Bait Type | Hard bait crankbait |
| Internal Sound | Free-floating rattles |
The 5XD dives to 15 feet, making it effective for deep structure bass fishing in lakes and reservoirs.
Pair the 5XD with a medium heavy casting rod and monofilament or fluorocarbon line for optimal depth control and lure response. Line choice affects how deep the bait will run.
Citrus is most effective in clear to moderately stained water where its visibility and natural appearance attract bass. In very stained or dark water, you may want to consider brighter or contrast-heavy color options.
The curved bill design allows the 5XD to dive faster and deeper than conventional crankbaits while maintaining a responsive action. The free-floating rattles produce varying sound frequencies that help bass locate the bait.
