Overview
Delivering a unique sound and action that is deadly in shallow water, the Xcite Baits XB-5 Crankbait is built to crash through cover and generate vicious strikes. Equipped with a weight transfer system, the Xcite Baits XB-5 Crankbait features an internal ball bearing that shifts to the tail during the cast to increase distance and accuracy then slides forward at the beginning of the retrieve and locks into a rattle chamber to create a loud rattling noise that attracts even the most finicky of fish. It is also molded with a wide belly and flat sides that push water and produce a strong vibration, while its built-in buoyancy and diamond shaped bill helps reduce snags and allows it to bounce off cover and generate wild deflections that trigger fish to bite.
Covered in lifelike details as well, the Xcite Baits XB-5 Crankbait features textured scales, 3D gill plates, and 3D eyes that provide an additional level of attraction to fool lure-shy bass into biting. Armed with two razor sharp treble hooks that deliver superior hook setting performance, the Xcite Baits XB-5 Crankbait is available in a wide selection of highly detailed colors that will match the hatch on any body of water.

Comments: My favorite crank bait in my bag I always have it close by. The orange makes the bass in NH vicious on their strikes at dusk.

Comments: I got one of these in a mystery tackle box a couple years ago. Since then, that single crankbait has outproduced every other crankbait I throw. Combined. And I still haven't lost it. Its unique shape gives it an insanely erratic action. I can also bring it through the thickest of cover without a problem. The way it is weighted makes it cast a mile even in wind. I want more people to know about it just because I want them to keep making it!

Comments: i have two of these in copper green shad. This has become one of my confidence baits especially if i'm on a new lake. Cannot tell you how many times its got the skunk out of my boat on a tough day. I am ordering different colors in hopes they all have that action to draw in strikes.

Comments: This is a really cool crankbait I love the design it swims great and it's a better price compared to some of the other crankbaits I get but overall it's a cool little lure that catches fish you may need to change the hooks out tho but that's all.
