Jerkbait Fishing

Originally believed to only be a cold-water tactic that excelled during the pre-spawn, the jerkbait has evolved into a year-round producer, allowing anglers to target fish throughout the seasons thanks to different sink rates, sizes, and diving depths. With such a wide variety of lethal options to choose from, it is a mistake to hit the lake without one tied on. The quick, erratic movement of the jerkbait is what sets it apart from other reaction baits, making it one of the best lures for triggering bites from fish even when they are not actively feeding.
