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.

product description

The Strike King KVD 8.0 Magnum Square Bill is built off the popular Strike King KVD square bill platforms, but has been beefed up to go after those giants that feed on bigger bait. The erratic wobble action of the Strike King KVD 8.0 Magnum Square Bill has put fish after fish in the boat and has cashed check after check so you know its a proven bait, just ask Bassmaster Kevin VanDam!

Diving quickly, the Strike King KVD 8.0 Magnum Square Bill surveys the water column from 3-7 feet as it wobbles and deflects off of brush and other obstacles effortlessly. Avaialble in a wide variety of color, any of the models from the KVD Square Bill Collection are a must for anglers targeting big bass!

Length: 4.5"
Weight: 1-1/8 oz

What are the recommended replacement hooks for this lure?

Answer: Depends I up graded my hooks to Mustad and caught a 50" Muskie my first day using it....

Answer: I’m not sure but I used four times stronger number four hook I Use for trolling and never had a problem

Answer: I prefer Gamagatsu

Answer: Kevin Van Dam recommends the Mustad wide gap up to a 2/0 hook for the 8.0 crankbaits. He has a YouTube video with the sizes of all the crankbaits and his recommendations of replacement hooks like he uses in his tournaments. Thanks for your question

can i use this on saltwater?

Answer: Yes you could use them in saltwater. Not sure what fish your targeting. It's more of a freshwater bait. Also hooks will rust very fast if not washed off after salt use

Answer: Should be able to fish it anywhere

Answer: I don’t know why you can’t long as you change the hooks to salt water hot

Does it rattle ?

Answer: I have six of them - all silent.
