I worked really hard with Strike King to develop a lineup of jerkbaits that covers all the bases . It ’ s called the KVD Jerkbait , and it comes in four models .
The 100 is 3.5 inches long and is an ultra-finesse jerkbait with just two treble hooks that ’ s perfect for shallow water and when conditions are tough . The 200 is 4 inches long , also has two trebles and gets down to 3 or 4 feet . The 300 is probably my workhorse jerkbait . It ’ s 4.5 inches in length and is my choice about 60 or 70 percent of the time . It has three trebles and dives to about 6 feet . Then there ’ s the 300 Deep , which has the same body as the 300 but dives about twice as deep and suspends with its nose down , which can be important at times .
