Strike King KVD Crankbaits Just $6 at Bass Pro: Stock Up for Spring Bass Season

If you’ve been meaning to restock your tackle box before the spring bite kicks off, here’s your sign. Bass Pro Shops is selling Strike King KVD Elite Squarebill Crankbaits for as low as $5.98 — about 40% off what you’d normally pay at most retailers. Shipping is free when you hit $50 in your cart, which isn’t hard to do when lures are this cheap.

Why This Deal Is Worth Your Attention

The Strike King KVD Elite Squarebill isn’t some bargain-bin knockoff. This is the crankbait that Kevin VanDam — one of the most decorated bass tournament anglers in history — helped design and famously relied on throughout his career. The square bill gives it that signature deflection action when it bumps off rocks, stumps, and dock pilings, triggering reaction strikes from bass that won’t touch a slower presentation.

At full retail, these typically run $10–$12 a pop. At $5.98, you can grab two or three colorways without feeling guilty about it. And trust us — you want multiple colors. The right shade can be the difference between a slow morning and a full livewell, especially as water temperatures start climbing in April and May.

Who Should Jump on This

This deal is a no-brainer for a few different types of anglers:

• Weekend bass fishermen who fish shallow, structure-heavy water — piers, laydowns, rocky banks — where a squarebill shines
• Tournament anglers who burn through lures and need to keep costs down without sacrificing quality
• Dads stocking up for family fishing trips this spring — these are easy to throw, hard to mess up, and they flat-out catch fish
• Southern anglers getting ready for the pre-spawn and spawn bite, when bass are shallow and aggressive

If you fish anywhere from Texas and Oklahoma to the Carolinas and Tennessee, squarebill crankbaits are a spring staple. This is the time of year when bass move up shallow, and the KVD Elite is built exactly for that scenario.

How It Compares

Other popular squarebills like the Rapala Ott’s Garage or BOOYAH Flex II run $8–$10 on a good day. The Luck-E-Strike RC2 is a budget alternative around $5, but it doesn’t have the same action or finish quality. At $5.98, the Strike King KVD Elite is genuinely in rare territory — premium performance at a price that’s hard to argue with.

A Few Things to Know

• Availability varies by color. Some popular patterns (like Chartreuse Sexy Shad or Tennessee Shad) may sell out fast, so don’t sleep on this.
• Free shipping kicks in at $50. If you’re only grabbing one or two lures, consider bundling with hooks, line, or other tackle to hit the threshold.
• No listed expiration date, but Bass Pro sale prices like this tend to disappear quickly once word gets out — this was already flagged on Slickdeals by the community.

Grab It Before It’s Gone

Spring fishing season is here, and $6 for a KVD Elite Squarebill is genuinely one of the better lure deals we’ve seen this year. Head over to Bass Pro Shops and grab a few colors while they’re still in stock. Your tackle box will thank you — and so will the bass.
