Come underwater and compare the actions of 10 different jerkbaits! Watch how the lures move and watch as bass devour them in this amazing underwater footage! If you've ever wondered what your favorite jerkbaits look like underwater, this bass fishing video is for you!

We've got One Rapala offering, four from Lucky Craft, one from Jackall, and four from Megabass. Pay attention to how each bait moves in the water. Does the bait move side to side? Does it roll and flash? Does it dive deeper on every rip or does it stay level?

Easy Jerkbait Tips For Bigger Spring Bass

Its time to catch bigger fish! These jerkbait tips will help you catch big bass this Spring. Knowing when to throw a tiny jerkbait instead of a large offering or a bold color instead of natural, can make all the difference. When it comes to jerkbait fishing, small details can yield huge results.

Matt uses a 2-pronged approach to jerkbait fishing. He begins by searching for outliers (bigger than average bass) with large profiled baits but will quickly adapt to a triggering approach focused around schooling fish and small baits, when necessary. Understanding how to use a jerkbait as a tool instead of just another lure is the difference between just catching fish and being an excellent jerkbait fisherman.

Below is a breakdown of the baits and tackle we recommend. Don't be afraid to get out of your comfort zone this year and target the fish with baits you wouldn't have normally thrown. You might be surprised by how big of a bass is willing to swipe your jerkbait!

Spring Jerkbait Fishing: Beginner and Advanced Tips!

Ready to "Trigger" fish to bite like never before?! These tips are the real deal! Learn to force bass to react instead of waiting for them to want to bite. The power of a properly fished jerkbait is unlike any other lure. 

The jerk bait draws on a bass' core response. It can trigger an instinctual feeding response from a fish, regardless of their desire to bite. You're about to learn how to use a jerk bait to its fullest potential! Be sure to pay careful attention to the portion on how to work the baits with crisp snaps rather than slow pulls. 

There are a lot of great baits on the market but some seem to be more consistent than others. Below is a list of the baits we fish with confidence from prespawn to postspawn.

Rod- Shimano Zodias 6'10" Medium: http://bit.ly/2cgmMAe
Reel- Curado 70 7:1 ratio: http://bit.ly/2apmDJt
Line- 20 lb Sufix 832: http://bit.ly/2ae93Ji

Softbaits and hooks...
Zoom Super Fluke: http://bit.ly/2aqys0H
1/0 Finesse Wide Gap Hook: http://bit.ly/2aKGmHM
Owner CPS Spring Medium: http://bit.ly/2b2YgDf
Gamakatsu Superline 4/0 EWG Hook: http://bit.ly/2ac92XG

The "nose rig" method for the fluke is very simple. Take the medium CPS spring and screw it directly into the nose of the fluke. Once fully twisted into the nose take the 1/0 hook and thread it through the nose of the bait AND the spring. The will give you maximum action and longevity. For the superfine hook its just a simple Texas rigged presentation. ________________________________________________________________
