Like its popular predecessor, the Caffeine Shad, Strike King®'s KVD Swim'n Caffeine Shad is a soft plastic lure that sports a baitfish profile. The KVD Swim'n Caffeine Shad also incorporates a swimming action built into its tail design. You can fish this versatile lure weightless, on a jighead, as a trailer, or on a weighted hook. In addition, the KVD Swim'n Caffeine Shad can also be rigged in umbrella applications.

Working goodI've been using the 5 inch Swim'n Shad with a weighted hook along the deep weed line for largemouth bass in clear water lakes of northwestern Wisconsin. I've caught several limits of nice bass in June and July with this approach. By using the 5 inch bait (and not the 4 inch bait), I can cast a bit farther and mostly avoid the 8-12 inch bass; the bass I catch tend to be 13-17 inchers. It has become my "go to" bait. My only complaint is that the baits are a little fragile and can get beat up beyond use after 1-3 fish. Catching the occasional small, toothy, northern pike does not help any. I'm still experimenting with colors, but the green pumpkin/pearl and watermelon red fleck seem to work better than pearl white.

KVD Caffeine ShadThe action on the tails are different and bass recognize it. These work when other swim baits don't and I think the coffee scent is another difference that bass detect. They really work for me on these Ozark lakes.

Cast-reel-hang onThese swim baits run true in the water column. Matched with the strike king jig heads these baits are hard to beat.

Go-To LureThese SK KVD swim'n caffeine shads are my go to lure for my usual fishing area. I typically fish in shallow water with vegetation and structure which requires me to use weedless lures. Of all the lures I throw there, this is by far the big catcher. I prefer the KVD Magic color, 5", with an O'Shaughnessy hook.

A Good Shad!This is a decent little shad. They work but it's also up to you on how/where/when you fish it. Presentation is key and when bait fish are present in the waters you're fishing this is a go to. Can be rigged many ways and works in both large and small water.
I fish in Florida so I use a pretty big hook. I use a 5.0

Can this be fished with a Texas rig?
I'm a crank-bait person at heart but have been expanding my skills and I like the Texas rig setup. Would this bait be right for this rig? If not any suggestions?
Thanks!

You can fish this Texas rig as I do. I use a 3/16 or 1/4 oz and peg it. You can fish it so many ways.
