Strike King Finesse KVD Spinnerbait Sexy Blue Back Herring

The Strike King Finesse KVD Spinnerbait in Sexy Blue Back Herring puts a refined touch on a classic bass-fishing workhorse. Designed in collaboration with legendary angler Kevin VanDam, this double-blade spinnerbait scales down the profile and brings a more natural presentation to shallow structure, grass, and transition zones where bass hunt baitfish. The Sexy Blue Back Herring color mimics a panicked minnow fleeing for cover—exactly the trigger finesse bass are looking for when they're feeding selectively or when the bite turns tough.

What sets the Finesse KVD apart from standard spinnerbaits is its redesigned Perfect Skirt. The smaller, more compact profile cuts through the water with less resistance and less visual noise, making it ideal for clear water or cautious fish. The natural color palette—including the Sexy Blue Back Herring option—reads as genuine forage rather than flash and sparkle alone. Every blade bears VanDam's official insignia, a small detail that signals the engineering behind the design.

This is a spinnerbait that earns its place in your tacklebox whether you're working shallow flats, casting tight to dock pilings, or probing the edges of weed growth. It's lightweight enough to cast on finesse gear, yet the blade action stays true and the skirt flares with each turn. The Sexy Blue Back Herring color works year-round and across regions wherever shad and herring are part of the local forage base.
