How to use a jerkbait?

Animating a jerkbait

A jerk bait is animated through more or less rapid rod tip jerks of varying intensity in order to achieve a "left-right" action. For versions more in the glide bait style, the animations should be spaced out to allow the lure time to "glide" left and then right underwater. Some also support a simple steady retrieve that will allow them to describe more or less wide "S" curves. Don't forget to pause to allow sinking models time to flutter on the drop — watch out for bites on the restart of the animation!

Customising a jerkbait

The use of additional weights will allow you to vary their action even further. The CWC Guppie, for example, thanks to its soft tail, offers even more vibrations.

Find here a selection of rods perfectly suited to this type of fishing, and don't forget the right leader, as pike love these lures!

If you have any questions regarding the choice of a rod, the rigs suited to your fishing area, or the type of line (monofilament, braid, fluorocarbon) to use on your reel, do not hesitate to contact us via our website, by phone, or by visiting our store Ardent Pêche.
