Description

Silent but deadly, the KVD Elite 8.0 Squarebill crankbait is fine-tuned and masterfully crafted to meet the specifications of legendary pro angler Kevin VanDam. The squarebill design of the KVD Elite series crankbaits effectively deflects off cover to entice reaction strikes and create a distinctive hunting action that erratically wanders while still running true. The king-sized KVD 8.0 Squarebill has been given an “elite” makeover, featuring exclusive paint schemes and KVD’s signature Mustad Triple Grip hooks, weighing in at 1.5 oz. with diving depths of 6- to 9-feet.

Field Notes

Use this squarebill around shallow cover where deflection triggers reaction bites. It is designed to hunt and wander while still running true, making it a good choice for banging into wood, rock, and other cover in the 6- to 9-foot range.

Pros

  • Squarebill design deflects well off cover
  • Erratic hunting action triggers reaction strikes
  • Covers shallow to mid-shallow water effectively

Cons

  • Limited to relatively shallow diving depths
  • Best around cover rather than open-water situations
