6TH SENSE Draw 6.5in Glide Bait - Compact Wide Gliding Action

In this review the Draw 6.5 is presented as a compact glide bait for anglers targeting bass in waters with smaller forage; the single biggest reason to buy is its scaled-down gliding action that matches larger models while working effectively in shallow to mid-depths. Co-designed with Bassmaster Open champion Ben Milliken, the Draw 6.5 delivers a realistic profile, ultra-realistic 3D details and premium paint schemes, while remaining extremely slow sinking so it can be fished deliberately or retrieved faster for a tight twitch.

Key Features

• Co-designed model: Collaboration with Ben Milliken ensures the bait's action and proportions are tuned for proven bass techniques and real-world tournament input.
• Sinking behavior: Extremely slow sinking weight lets the bait stay in the strike zone longer and be worked at a medium retrieve to run 1-4 ft depth reliably.
• Versatile action: Wide gliding motion with the option to switch to fast-twitching retrieves provides flexibility for different water conditions and bass moods.
• Swivel hook hangers: Hook hangers rotate with hooked fish to reduce leverage and improve hook retention on big bass.
• Realism and finish: Ultra-realistic 3D details and premium paint schemes improve visual appeal and trigger more follows and strikes in clear water.

Who It's For

The Draw 6.5 is ideal for bass anglers who fish small to medium lakes and ponds where forage is compact and a full-size glide bait would be overkill. Those who value a realistic profile and controlled, slow presentation will appreciate the bait's ability to work shallow water and mid-depths without aggressive sinking.

Anglers who need deeper-diving profiles or a true topwater-only action should look elsewhere, and tournament pros requiring maximum casting distance from a heavier bait may prefer the larger Draw models for greater mass and run depth.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Scaled-down glide action retains the wide, natural glide of larger models for smaller forage situations.
• Extremely slow sinking design offers prolonged presence in the strike zone at 1-4 ft with a steady retrieve.
• Swivel hook hangers reduce leverage and improve hook retention on larger fish.
• Premium paint and 3D details enhance realism and appeal to wary bass.

Cons

• Not intended for deep-running applications beyond a few feet without different techniques.

Our Verdict

Frequently Asked Questions

What depth does the Draw 6.5 run?
The bait is extremely slow sinking and is typically worked between 1-4 ft on a medium retrieve.

Can I twitch it for a tighter action?
Yes, different reel cadences and faster retrieves activate a more responsive, fast-twitching action instead of the wide glide.

Are the hooks secured to prevent throws?
Yes, the Draw 6.5 uses swivel hook hangers so hooks move with the fish to reduce leverage and improve hook retention.
