    Crankbaits ID

    In all the years i’ve been in business. I’ve traded auto parts for many things and yes, including fishing tackle. I swapped out some stuff for a fella yesterday and it had a box of these cranks that I’ve never seen. They got no identification marks on them anybody recognize them ?

    H20 bait? From Academy Sports?
    Because I don't recall if Academy Sports square bills had marking. It's been so long since I been able to fish. Just reminded me of one of theirs.


    No, a search makes it look as a KVD bait. That pattern looks exact of KVD Strike King bait.

    Because of the lip angle, looks like a strike king 1.5?

    I am on Hydrocodon this morning and didn't even catch that. I just wish when it messed with my head it helped with my pains. But definitely seen that after reading your reply and looking again.

    I throw small square bills but never anything this big. Maybe they are Strike Kings. They may end up for sale

    2,5 strike king. Bluegill looks like Eric’s old pattern they stole after he painted some for a pro.

    A strike king 1.5 is NOT 4-1/2 inches long…that’s an 8.0…. But that paint pattern doesn’t look strike king to me.. academy h20 had an 8.0 copy at one point or maybe still…. That looks h20 paint job to me..

    these are kvd 8.0’s.. 4DE53E27-8330-4674-803C-999A6D356552.jpeg

    btw…..h20 will have the logo on the belly..

    my picture was just showing size reference since guys here can’t read a tape measure….. if you think a 1.5 or 2.5 is 4-1/2” long, dang…

    that looks like a strike king kvd squarebill 1.5.

    a 2.5 looks fatter in the head if that makes sense.

    the 2nd from the left is a 2.5 and the 3rd from the left is a 1.5

    A Strike King 4.0 is 4" long. When they give the size it's for the body only. They don't include the bill.

    I’m confused…. I lined up my tape measure in my pic exactly the same as he did…. Measures the same…. Doesn’t matter if it includes the bill or just the body.. ??

    as far as color, yeah it appears to be strike king orange bream after a swipe through the TW site..

    Yes you are right. I was just pointing out that they don't have to be an 8.0 just because they measure 4" long. A 4.0 measures the same as the 8.0
