In this post I will be giving you some information on how to fish a jerkbait. Jerkbaits can be used in any season, but I believe that they work most effectively in the spring time and fall. Jerkbaits imitate wounded fish by freezing in its place and then swimming like crazy. These are the steps of fishing a jerkbait the most common way.
- Tie on a jerkbait
- Cast the jerkbait
- reel in slowly
- pause
- twitch the jerkbait
- repeat steps 3 – 5
Make and find your own pattern. Your pattern can be anything like; reel reel pause twitch twitch. Just make sure to be consistent with your pattern.
