Museum Archive: Vintage Strike King KVD Silent square bill UV, 2/5oz Black Back/Chart fishing lure #17426

A weight of 12 g (2/5 oz) provides the necessary heft for precise casting of this Strike King KVD Silent square bill UV. Featuring a square-shaped clear lip, the lure is designed to reach depths between 3 – 5 ft (0.9 – 1.5 m) during retrieval or trolling. This 6 cm (2 1/4") specimen, identified by product code 17426, displays a Black Back/Chart color palette that exhibits a strong glow under UV conditions, highlighting the scale-textured chartreuse body and red gill accents. Because this is a silent model, it lacks internal rattles, favoring a stealthier approach in pressured waters. The exterior remains in 5/5 condition, with the paint and hardware, including the two dark-finished treble hooks, showing no visible wear. A prominent black spot is positioned behind the head, serving as a classic visual trigger.
