Norman Fat Boy, Redear

LC RC 3.5, purple back, yellow belly (pictured on the Home Page)

Only ones I have are the KVD 1.5 and 2.5 models. My favorite colors are sexy shad and chartreuse with black back.

Do you all have a preference between the rattling vs silent KVD series? I notice TW only has the silent and the two I have are silent. RW, I had never taken a look at the Normans, I like how they look and the price is right. I think I'm gonna have to pick a few up

KVD 1.5, H2O, Luck E Strike series 3, Lucky Craft 1.5, Bandit 100, Xcaliber 100, all great baits. I have both rattling and silent models for different uses. Rattling for aggressive fish/dirty water/weeds, silent for pressured fish/clear water/cold water.

I prefer a Azuma and H2O cranks. After which is everything else. As far as colors go I have now been spoiled by the custom paint jobs done by bassinjody39. He's about to get a whole mess of baits sent to him for him to work his magic on.

KVD 1.5 in Citrus Shad, however....Chris Lane on the road trip suggested his go to confidence bait is a Luck E Strike RC2 (no other hints).....so before I got home from the road trip I made a detour to BPS and picked up a couple series 3 in Tasty Shad, hope I can have half Chris luck (skill)....we'll see!

Lucky Craft RC 1.5 Ghost Minnow, I also like the 3.5 Purple/ Chartreuse for first light early in the morning.

Im a big fan of the rc series in any baitfish looking color. Kvds work good also.

Bomber Square A-Chart/Brown

Xcaliber XCS100

I like the R.C. 1.5s and the KVD 1.5s. The 'rattlin' KVD's are a BPS exlcusive.

Hi guys I'm new to the forum out of NJ and I love the KVDS 1.5s just a great, great crankbait!! I never threw them too much but last year I started to really Get The Bite on them!!!

I'm a big fan of the XCalibur line, specifically the XCS 200's.

They're well built and aren't overly expensive.

Im shocked no one said a 1\4 oz speed trap best shallow 3-6 foot square bill i have ever seen

Dt fat 03 in helenski shad has put some of the biggest bass in my boat!

bandit 100 in baby bass and h20 (model S I think?)

The kvd 1.0 has been doing well for me lately. Big fish hit it too.

KVD 1.5 in Green Gizzard, Chart/Black back, Chart. Sexy Shad.

If you can find them, a Bomber Model B......FANTASTIC squarbill. They are expensive, but man they can bring them up sometimes. I've had multiple doubles with the Model B and love it!

Rapala DT Fat 3 in blue shad, and the then it would be the Rapala DT Flat 3, that is the finesse square bill that works great on finicky fish.

Did well last trip with KVD 1.0
