Overview

Built for anglers who want to work a jerkbait deeper in the water column, this lure is designed to reach depths that standard jerkbaits may not. Its sinking profile lets you target a chosen depth before beginning the retrieve, making it a practical option for forward-facing sonar presentations and other depth-focused setups. Once in motion, it is intended to keep the erratic action associated with the standard KVD 300 Deep Jerkbait. This is a specialized choice for situations where precise depth control matters more than a shallow-running presentation.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Designed to sink nearly 0.5 feet per second, so it requires a deliberate pause before the retrieve begins.
