Thanks for the insight! I caught my PB smallmouth out here in Wilson Reservoir in KS on Saturday on a Pointer 100 (Live Pearl Shad) at the crack of dawn!! It was 19.5” and weighed 3 lbs 12 oz!! Appreciate the advice!!!!

One of the best explanations of how to fish a jerk bait. I will use these techniques in my upcoming fishing. Thanks so much for sharing. On a side note my first Vision 110 jerk baits, I broke the bill off on one on my second cast to a railroad bridge on Pool 8 on the Mississippi and the second one is still in a tree on a backwater area on the same pool.

Ben…this was the most informative jerk bait lesson for me from KZbin. I fish the Ito oneten , Ito shiner and other Megabass jerkbaits. I caught tons of pike in the past with vision oneten but since I switched my rod to a P 5 oneten special, my catches dropped significantly. Thanks to you, I clearly now know that I work the bait too hard. Your explanation was so enlightening….you guys from The Hook Up Tackle rock!!

@@wolverinex4243 I never broke a lip on a OneTen, instead I got tangled too often. Honestly, I would never use this bait with a H or a MH rod. I use the P5 Oneten stick which seems to me a M power, with a fast tip and a more moderate bend. Braid to Fluoro leader with a titan leader tip (northern pike would cut Fluoro). This is no optimal setup, as the baits suspending capabilities are affected by the titan leader, but I can’t waive it as I would lose too many baits/fish. Nevertheless…thanks for your comment!!

@@wolverinex4243 I use the chinese knock offs as well, but when suspending capabilities are key I always use the original. Your bad opinion on this lure is a bit surprising to me because my perception is, that it’s one of the best jerkbaits in this size/weight and catches tons of fish. There are other good jerkbaits from Jackall, Duo, Deps etc. but if I have to choose only one my decision would be the Megabass Vision Oneten. What would be your choice?

My argument for primarily fishing a jerk-bait on spinning gear is due to the style/angle of my retrieve. I feel I’m more versatile with a spinning rod. When I retrieve on a casting rod I’m really only comfortable and effective in one direction. On a spinning rod I can twitch and jerk any which way and still make effective movements without negatively effecting the action. With that being said I always have 2 (sometimes 3) jerkbait setups on the deck at all times. - Ronin - Windbuster - Black Elseil II

Love watching jerk bait videos! But, always have questions. One, if I'm fishing a jerk bait in 3-5' water, do I need to draw the bait down a little after it hits the water? Two, I've read where people will move the bait a few inches in between jerks, maybe after the pause. Not every time but, they add that to their cadence. Have you done this? I've had great success with the 110 silent but, casting distance suffers without the balance transfer weight system in it. I can throw my 110 Juniors further. I'll be checking out more of your videos as I love jerk bait fishing all year and, I am a diehard Megabass 110/110 silent and 110 Junior fisherman!

Personal opinion, I also think I can get/stay in rhythm with mg cadence better with a spinning reel. Even controlling the slack line and being careful not to pick up too much line just feels easier on a spinning reel.

I agree with the Megabass hooks they are very good hooks an hear so many people complaining about them bending. I have like 10 vision onetens couple Ito shiners and none of them have I bent a hook. I even caught my pb on Ito Shiner at 6.8 lbs an that didn't bend the hooks neither. Like u have to be setting the hook very hard to bend those an have ur drag way to tight as long as ur drag is set right an u don't yank like ur setting a jig hook. You shouldn't have a issue an also out barb hooks behave the same way barbless hooks do and penetrate like a needle so it def takes less force for them to actually dig into fishes lip.

@borreholic

Jänkarna refererar ju aldrig till lintjocklek utan till olika klasser av brottstyrka, även när brottstyrkan inte är relevant för det man pratar om. T.ex kan de säga "don't use more than 10 pound braid" när de menar "annars blir linan för TJOCK". Tunn/klenare lina hör ofta ihop med tunnare/klenare spön samt tunnare/klenare krokar, det går hand i hand. Med tunna krokar (som på Vision oneten) kan du inte fiska med för kraftig lina och för kraftigt spö och göra för kraftiga mothugg samt pressa (för stor) fisk för hårt, det är väl det han menar med att anpassa lina/spö etc efter krokarna.

How much clarity would you say you need on average to throw a jerkbait successfully? And do you need about the same clarity to throw soft jerkbaits like a fluke? If the water is on the clearer side, do you start of with a slower cadence- and vice versa- fish it more aggressively if it's on the stained side? I seem to have all the stuff you covered right- I'm throwing them on 7 pound FC sniper, I'm using a moderate-fast action rod- medium 6'10". I'm using a 6:1 ratio- and I've started developing a feel for twitching through the slack and hitting the bait lightly at the end of the stroke- not moving it between jerks. Still- very rarely have success with them. The only thing I can think of that might be causing an issue is water clarity- we've had record rain fall and everything has been muddy and flooded all season- but even on a normal year we don't get much vis. I'd say it averages between 1-2 feet- only getting clear when we have drought conditions toward the end of summer. That said- I just found a new lake to start fishing that does stay clear- averages probably 3-4 feet but lots of days it's up to 6 feet. It's a lowland reservoir- fairly small relative to something like Pickwick but since no gasoline engines are allowed it's perfect for kayak anglers.

@@thehookuptackle_usa - akin to topwater fishing most poppers. I cringe when I see hard hooksets with most topwaters, instead of just sweeping and leaning into the fish. FWIW, I fish mostly braid + leader for topwaters, although it's the same with mono/copoly, a frog/jig type hookset just isn't isn't necessary, and most likely pulls the bait away from the fish instead of helping to bury the hooks..

AZ has a 2 hook regulation how do you fish the 110 with 3? how do you modify it so the suspending action is not effected?

A single lure, no matter how many hooks it has on it, counts as 1 hook in AZ. So you could have 2 jerkbaits ties on at the same time that each have 3 hooks, and that would count as 2 hooks. 👍

Hey, thanks for tips. About using a 6:1 ratio reels, I want to ask is it a problem to just slow down your retrieve with high ratio reels and there won't be an issue with getting drug forward a jerkbait? Greetings from Ukraine.

If you're good at adjusting yourself to your reel speed, then yes, you can just slow yourself down and use a faster reel. I'm not good at slowing down so I use a slower reel.

I think another mistake guys make (myself included) is fishing a jerkbait that isn't hitting the right depth. Sometimes i get stuck fishing baits that all dive in the same depth range. Sometimes the fish wants a bait that dives 9ft in 10ft of water, but sometimes they want a bait that dives 3ft in 10ft of water. I know i need to experiment more with hitting different water columns but in the same water depth, because sometimes i know there's fish in an area and they wont eat the jerkbait but its probably because the bait is mostly in their face, not over their head.

If you are good with a bait caster you can grip it and rip it even in the wind. I fish daily and it only took me a few days to get a feel for it. If I was you I would stop talking about how hard it is to cast a bait caster because you might be talking people out of them. I wouldn't touch one forever because of all the talk about how hard they are to cast, throw in the price of a good one it's a scary step.
