Quick take

A 3/8 oz spinnerbait with a smaller profile and redesigned skirt designed to match Kevin VanDam's successful pattern.

The Finesse KVD Spinnerbait in Chartreuse Sexy Shad is a compact 3/8 oz wire bait with a Colorado and willow blade pairing. Its smaller skirt and 5/0 hook suit anglers who want a slimmer spinnerbait profile for lighter-line fishing. A good fit for bass anglers looking for an all-around spinnerbait in a natural shad pattern.

Best for

  • Bass in clearer water
  • Pike and walleye in structure
  • Situations where smaller profile attracts more strikes

Skip if

  • You need heavy-cover penetration
  • You prefer larger profile spinners

Strengths

  • Colorado and willow blades create flash and vibration together
  • Smaller profile generates more strikes in clear water
  • Naturalized colors match natural forage

Trade-offs

  • Smaller size reduces casting distance in wind
  • Dual blades require more retrieve speed than single-blade options
  • Hair skirt can foul on vegetation

About this type

A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.

Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.

Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
