Anyone know what kind of lipless crank Kevin Van Dam was using in the classic?

I'd like to know too.

Most likely the new Strike King. Red Eye Shad.

Here is your answer :

Question: Kevin, February in Alabama can very well have three days where the temperature's 55 or 60 degrees. If the area has two days of warm weather and no rain for two weeks, how will you fish, and how do you expect to catch bass under these conditions?

VanDam: I'll be fishing much faster than I will if we have cold weather. I'll be fishing the spinner bait, the jerkbait and the lipless crankbait like Strike King's new Red Eye Shad. I'll be trying to cover a lot of water because the bass should be up on the flats and very active. Under these conditions, the more water I can cover in a day of fishing, the better my odds will be for winning. Lay Lake has plenty of water like this. So, I feel pretty confident that if we have that warm weather, I'll still be able to do well in the tournament, because I like to fish fast and I like to power fish.

The real determining factor for these conditions will be if the bass are targeting shad as their primary prey species, or if they're still targeting crawfish on the bottom. The first thing I'll have to establish, if we get that stable water and warm weather conditions, is what food do the bass want to eat. Once I know that, then I can do a better job of lure selection, and I'll catch more fish.

Thanks guys!

Actually, when I was watching the final day coverage it looked like he was throwing a Yo-Zuri Rattle-n-Vibe. Not sure though.

Strike King's new Red Eye Shad looks a lot like the Yo-Zuri Rattlin Vibe.  Very easy to mistake the 2 for eachother i think.

From watching the classic, it was definitely the Strike King Red Eye Shad.  

It was a strike king red eye shad.

I thought it was a Lucky craft LV-Max 500....but i have never seen a red-eye shad you guys speak of

it looked very "lucky craft" to me as well but after reviewing strike kings webpage, I'll have to agree that it was a red eye shad.

Definitely the Red Eye, the quality is right up there with Luck Craft from the looks of it.  That is what is so nice about quality tackle - it truly brings other companies game up as fas as quality is concerned to compete.

I was at the classic, standing front row on the floor.  On the megatron they showed some of his action through the day.  Every one of his fish, to my amazement, was caught on the red-eye.  He really does like Strike King products.  

definitely the red-eye-jedi as SK has really been pimpin' that lure out....both Shaw and KVD cannot talk enough 'bout it and its been in both of their fishing shows.
