KVD Crankbaits

Squarebill Crankbait

Designed to the exact specifications of angling legend Kevin VanDam. Perfect for shallow water and power fishing. The squarebill design and unique "hunting" action will constantly "wander" with erratic movement, while still running true. It also deflects perfectly off cover to entice strikes. The KVD series of baits are designed with no internal rattles for a "silent" approach.

Flat Side Crankbait

The KVD 1.5 Flat Side crankbait has a slender modified flat side for erratic thumping action with a body size similar to the KVD 1.5 Squarebill.

"A squarebill is something I've always got tied on." - Kevin VanDam

With KVD's help, we designed crankbaits that have:

Chip-resistant finishes
3D "look-alive" eyes
Erratic action

A KVD crankbait is versatile, efficient, and it just flat catches them.

Questions about Strike King KVD 1.5 Shallow Square Bill Crankbait

What are the dementions?

Answer: It's about 2 1/2 inches with a tight wobble. Great around the bank shallow off wood or rocks you can even rip it through the edge of the grass line but don't be afraid to throw in open water I caught a 6 1/2 this past December throwing straight out from the bank

Why is fishing tackle so over priced on amazon....? These are like 5-7$ on TackleWarehouse with 2 day shipping for $5

Answer: Then buy it there?

Product description says dives 10" inches. Is it really 10" inches, or is it 10' ft.?

Answer: It will run 0-10 inches. It’s basically a sub surface bait.

Answer: This is a shallow diver I would say max is about 12" or so I've got it

Answer: It will go up to 2 feet works great as a top water lure

Answer: This is a very shallow running bait that's made to go just beneath the surface so 10in is accurate

What size are these? 2 inch? 2.5? 3 inch?

What size are the Gamakatsu Treble hooks?

Answer: 4

Does 2.5 inches in length include the bill?

Answer: Yes all of the crankbaits come with a bill. If they didn’t it would be a lipless.

Answer: Yes

Do they dive

Answer: Dives very shallow sub surface or you can keep it at the top of the water with the correct retrieve keeping the tip of your rod up. This is a great bait for targeting shallow bass.

Answer: It floats, so it depends on how you crank or jerk it. You can slow crank it from shallow down to a few feet

Answer: Yes

Is this lure 3/8 oz? Thanks.

Answer: It says it's.8 oz

what are the size of the treble hooks?

Answer: 4

where can i get a kvd sqare bill 2.5 river perch color crank bait

Answer: Tackle warehouse

What is the best color for smallmouth bass

Answer: A perch color is good and also yellow with black top is good

Answer: I like chartreuse with black. I catch fish all year round with that color. Or if your pond or lake is full of bream go with a bream color also. Awesome lure I love them have caught many fish ranging from 2lbs to 8lbs

What trebles do you put on this crankbait?

Answer: Gamukatsu

do these float or sink when not retrieving?

Answer: Float just like most crank baits.

Answer: They float on the pause

Answer: They float. My wife and I have caught 17 species of fish using various colors of this lure. You won’t be disappointed

Answer: They float

Anyone try this lure to catch Salt water fish in the shallows?

Answer: I have the best luck with this and pretty much any other crank bait when I'm banging it into the rocks on the bottom. With the square billed crank baits being the bulldozer of the cranking world, I assume you would have similar success in the ocean in either sand or rock bottom beaches. As you would need to be cracking it on the shoreline seeing that it only runs about 3 feet deep.

Answer: No.

How long does it take to ship?

Answer: Depends if you have prime or not

Does it rattle

Answer: She rattles

Answer: No. This is a silent bait.

Product reviews of Strike King KVD 1.5 Shallow Square Bill Crankbait

colin : Buy it!

Great looking bait, and performs well.

Paul Still : Outstaing color

Great color and detail . Fast shipping.

Justin Mcainey : Fantastic and highly recommend!

Great quality lure that yields results. Smooth to retrieve and colors to match what the fish want. High success in local lakes!

Steven S. : Shallow dive... works great!

I got this lure and use it with my new KastKing baitcaster set up. Works and moves great. Looks like the major brand name lures. Caught some nice large mouth bass already on this!!! 5 Stars!

Rick A. Hulstein : caught 3 fish in a hour with orange beam! ...

caught 3 fish in a hour with orange beam! but did not buy here bought at my local sheels. the reason for 4 stars is because on the 3rd fish the front treble hook broke so had to spend another $6 on treble hooks

Dip&Dunk : Good/bad

Good news/bad news. Good: caught 13 bass in two days. Bass were feeding on schooling shad and this was a good match. Bad: about every fifth cast the forward treble caught on lip. Also on about every other caught bass, line would slip between hooks on treble (using 8 lb braided). Finally, lip is made in two pieces and on second day line got stuck on a cast between two pieces. Threw lure away.

Daniel Simoes : very good

Gary Fields : Great Lure

Nice Lure Nice price

Michael DiVito : It catches fish

These are great lures for shallow ponds, lakes, and rivers with about 5-8ft of water. They swim right in the strike zone. I’ve gotten the most success with a slow to moderate speed retrieve and bass always just hammer the thing. I’ve caught largemouth, smallmouth, crappie, northern pike, and pickerel on this lure.

Toby McCormick : INCORRECT LURE WAS SENT

I am unhappy due to the picture above of the item I ordered it is NOT the same items I received I ordered a straight square bill and I received the gift square I'll and also the color I ordered due to the product picture is not the color I received.

Todd Bagwell : Excellent product
