The Topwater That Calls Up Giants

Most topwater baits get noticed. The Strike King KVD Mega Dawg gets eaten. At 6 inches and 2 oz, this is the biggest bait in the KVD Sexy Dawg family — a long-range surface walker built to pull trophy largemouth off the bank, out of the grass, and up from deep cover. Wide, rhythmic walk-the-dog action. Effortless cadence. KVD-approved. When you want the biggest fish in the lake, you throw the biggest bait.

Built for Big-Fish Topwater Fishing

The Mega Dawg is Strike King's answer to the question every serious bass angler asks: what do I throw when I want a giant? The oversized profile displaces more water, creates more surface disturbance, and triggers the kind of aggressive, territorial strikes that smaller topwaters simply can't produce. Cast it long, work it slow, and hold on.

When Standard Topwaters Come Up Short

Smaller walking baits get ignored by big fish that have seen everything. The Mega Dawg's 6-inch profile triggers a different response — it looks like a real meal, not a snack. When bass are keyed on large shad, herring, or bluegill, this is the bait that matches the hatch on the surface and draws blowups from fish that won't touch a smaller presentation.

What Makes the Mega Dawg Different

• 6-inch, 2 oz profile — maximum castability and big-fish appeal in one package
• Wide walk-the-dog action — easy to work with a rhythmic rod-tip cadence, even for beginners
• Long-range attraction — calls up bass from deep cover, open flats, and grass edges
• KVD-approved design — built to the exact spec of Kevin VanDam
• Premium topwater construction — the apex bait in the KVD Sexy Dawg family
• Available in 5 proven color patterns for clear and stained water

The Right Pick If...

• You want to target trophy largemouth with a big surface presentation
• Bass are keyed on large baitfish and ignoring smaller topwaters
• You're fishing open water, grass flats, or points where long casts matter
• You want a walking bait that's easy to work with a consistent cadence
• You fish early morning, late evening, or overcast conditions when topwater shines

Best Fishing Techniques

• Walk-the-dog — slack-line rod-tip twitches with a steady rhythm; let the bait do the work
• Pause-and-walk — pause 1–2 seconds after a direction change to trigger hesitant fish
• Long-range casting — use the weight to cover open water and reach fish holding far from the boat
• Grass edge walking — work it parallel to weed lines and pad edges where big bass ambush prey

Best Conditions

• Early morning and late evening — prime topwater windows when bass are most aggressive
• Overcast or low-light days — fish stay shallow and active longer
• Calm to light chop — surface action is most visible and effective
• Warm water (65°F+) — bass are active and willing to chase surface baits
• Clear to lightly stained water — fish can track the bait from a distance

Best For

• Trophy largemouth bass on open water, flats, and grass edges
• Anglers targeting big fish with a big-profile surface presentation
• Reservoir and lake fishing where long casts and large baitfish are the norm
• Tournament anglers looking for a kicker fish on the topwater bite

Models & Specs

Tackle Express Tips

• Use 50–65 lb braided line for maximum casting distance and instant hooksets — braid floats and keeps the bait working on the surface.
• Slow down more than you think you need to. Big bass often follow the Mega Dawg for several feet before committing — a pause right before the boat is where a lot of giants get caught.
• Bone and Oyster are your go-to colors in clear water or bright sun; Chrome Sexy Shad and Green Gizzard Shad shine in stained water or overcast conditions.

FAQ

What line should I use with the Mega Dawg?
50–65 lb braid is the standard setup. Braid floats, which keeps the bait walking properly on the surface, and the no-stretch gives you a solid hookset on long casts.

How is the Mega Dawg different from the KVD Sexy Dawg?
The Mega Dawg is larger — 6 inches vs. 4.5 inches — and heavier, which means longer casts and a bigger profile that targets trophy-class fish. The action is similar but wider and more pronounced.

When is the best time to throw the Mega Dawg?
Early morning and late evening are prime, but any overcast day with calm to light chop is a great topwater window. Warm water (65°F+) keeps bass active and willing to chase surface baits.

The Deps Bull Flat 5.8 is one of the hottest selling soft plastics in Japan, designed with a unique shape that imitates bluegill and other panfish with deadly realism. Unlike traditional worms or soft plastics, the Bull Flat features a spiral fall just like that of a dying bluegill, creating an irresistible presentation that trophy bass feeding on panfish simply can't ignore.

On the retrieve, the unique segmented, wedge-tail undulates extremely naturally, giving the Bull Flat a subtle, lifelike action that drives bass crazy. The innovative body design creates realistic swimming motion that perfectly mimics a bluegill or sunfish, while the spiral fall on slack line triggers reaction strikes from bass that are keying on wounded or dying panfish.

The plastic is infused with crawfish scent and salt to ensure fish bite and hang on longer for better hookup ratios. Incredibly versatile, the Bull Flat works great as a jig trailer, fished weightless, on a Texas rig, on a drop shot, and Carolina rigged. If you have bluegill, sunfish, or perch in your water, the Bull Flat is your secret weapon for catching the giant bass that are eating them.

The BKK-VIPER-41 is a strong and shiny 4x treble hook designed with long and straight needle points and a very aggressive bend.

One of the techniques we targeted during the design of the BKK-VIPER-41 was topwater lurefishing. What we wanted to achieve with this hook was a lighter treble that would reduce its impact on the swimming action of the lure, at the same maximizing its penetration and holding power.

To reduce the overall weight of the hook and to make it stay closer to the lure we shortened the welded section of the treble, thereby also providing more flexibility to the structure.

The point is designed to maximize the hook-up rate when fishing topwater or when targeting fish that suck in the lure, while the aggressive shape of the bend ensures that the hook does not come off when the fish thrashes and jumps out of the water.

The BKK-VIPER-41 is coated in Bright Tin to resist even harsh saltwater environments and comes in a wide size range (6 to 6/0) to fit a huge array of lures, from small vibes to big SW stickbaits and poppers.

The BKK Fangs-62 UA design was inspired by the bend of the traditional O’Shaughnessy, a long-time used hook that has proved to feature an excellent hook up rate and 2X strong.

Furthermore, the forged shank provides an additional 20% in strength compared to other similar hooks on the market, extending the durability of the hook. The length of the hook shank is suitable for various kind of lures such as topwater, minnow and crankbait.

The treble hook comes with needle-sharp hook points that ensure an excellent hook penetration performance.
