I set out on a mission to see what would happen if I threw nothing but the 6th Sense Draw Glidebait in the Ghost Glide color — a 9-inch subsurface beast designed to tempt giants. No finesse, no backups. Just one glidebait, my Old Town Sportsman 106 PDL kayak, and my Humminbird Helix 7 guiding the way across a quiet Pacific Northwest lake. I covered water, searched for followers, and tried to dial in the perfect cadence to trigger a strike. This wasn’t just a test of a bait — it was a full-on commitment to the hunt.
