  • Kvd 1.5. I have more confidence in this bait than any lure ever invented.

  • My favorite is the Bomber Square A, cheap and effective. Or for a bigger bait with an awesome wobble the Bomber Balsa B.

  • I have a box full of the kvds both 1.5 and 2.5. I love em.. I tried the little johns and fat johns and I was hooked. RW, my dad is a firm believer in the Normans too!

Was a Lucky Craft RC 1.5, but have since gone to the Xcalibur Xcs 100 (Rayburn Red is my fav color with Crawdad a close second)

I'm also a fan of the KVD 3.5. I have a picture of the lure and a nice fish that pops up on the Home Page occasionally.

Got a Bandit 100 in the blue and chart good little bait that would be my sons favorite he uses it all the time....... how bout footloose  or squarebill any body?

 

The Norman fat boy looks like something I might try in that jelly bean color, really like the looks of that color.

Another fan of the LC RC 1.5.... I am also anxious to try these guys out,but there is just to much hard water right now....Scare Brow 57 and Knuckle 60.

I own numerous varieties of square bills, but for the way I generally fish them, which is amongst sunken bushes and shallow trees, the Timber Tiger DC8 has worked the best for me.   A Texas Shad color for clearer water (white & silver, darkish back, with a distinct pink tinge on the sides)  In very murky/muddy water and solid chartreuse with a purple back has worked the best for me.

Do you mean the 2.5?

I'm a big fan of the Luck-E Strike square bill.  I also like all the KVD squares as well.

I plan on getting some of these to try out this year.

 

My wife thinks I have an addiction to crank baits.  I can just open my tackle boxes and just stare at them.  She says it's unhealthy. I also have Excalibur, Lucky Craft, Live Target, and various other brands I can't recall at the moment.  The bait monkey hits me with his club when it comes to cranks! lol

Hard to beat my old bagley balsa B2W square bills.

If I can HAVE any squarebill it would be a LC 1.5. If I have to buy it, I like the H2O Xpress CRS.

Is the 3.5 a new bait we don't know about?

Caught a ton on the 1.5. Bandit and Excalibur S. B. baits are great too. I like the smaller size of the 1.5.

I like the 1.5 a lot, as many have already mentioned, but I also really like the Rapala DT Fat 3.

My absolute number one favorite squarebill is a LC RC 1.5 Copper Green Shad. Second are the KVD 1.5's in various colors.

Cant go wrong with a KVD 1.5 in chart. Blackback! Also the chart. Shad is great too!

I like the Lucky Craft RC 1.5, Fat CB B.D.S. and the XCalibur XCS baits. If I had to choose just one single bait to use it would be a Luck Craft Fat CB B.D.S. 1 in Tomato Craw. I have caught more bass on that one single bait than I think any other.

Do you mean the 2.5?

 

think he meant RC 3.5?
