Fall Jerkbait Fishing! ( Beginner To Advanced – Full Seminar )

Jerkbait fishing is one of the best techniques an angler can learn! The jerk bait's ability to trigger a feed response in a bass puts it in a category that few other lures achieve. However, the true potential of a jerkbait is only unlocked when an angler understands the subtle nuances of these incredible lures, and that's what we're teaching you today!

The speed of your retrieve cadence, lure color, lure depth, and many other factors impact your ability to catch jerkbait fish. This is a technique that can take your fishing to a whole new level, but it requires a strict attention to detail.

Below we're breaking out our favorite baits by category and style. We've included our favorite colors for each (subtle and bold) and also included our favorite rod and reel combos for the presentation. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
