Seems to be quite a buzz around what lipless crank Kevin VanDam was using in the Classic.  Here it is.....
Strike King Red Eye Shad Crankbaits

I believe he was using the #06 color - Gold Black Back and prefers that color when everyone else is throwing chrome/blue back

But then again he did not win, it was Boyd Duckett's Original Rat-L-Trap 1/2 oz that got it done in the end....
