[@Thomhuntfishing]

Been using one now for about 3 months and it’s now one of my favourite rods. Even managed an 8kg catfish on it which was a surprise!

What els can you say Great Episode, Great Fish and ofc Great Fishing btw i already love GreenGhost Jerkbite Jörgen is fishing

[@westinfishing]

Thanks Esox Flow

[@Thomhuntfishing]

Many people think we just say the baits are good to support Westin….. but honestly, this bait is very very special and the team have created a winner here with the Jerkbite 😉

[@jorgenlarsson7413]

Thank you!

[@schoetersfrank]

Awesome video Waaaauw 🥰👍👍👍💪

[@westinfishing]

Thanks Frank

[@pedereriksson7]

Riktigt intressant att se hur ett jerkbait utklassar mjukbeten under så kall årstid.

[@сергейсвизев-ф9я]

You guys have a great team! What is the name of your boat?

[@jorgenlarsson9279]

Thank you! It’ an Alumacraft 165 Classic

[@sandorkovacs9271]

Awesome video guys! Hey @westinfishing can we have Thom in Fly vs Jerk or Pike Pro/Perch Pro?

[@westinfishing]

Thanks Sandor

[@magnuswallin8327]

👍

Nice !!

[@RikkiHockey]

Wow enjoyed this one! By the way what dimensions are you using on these new Westin W6 and W10 braids?

[@Thomhuntfishing]

Hi Rikki, I’ve been using the lightest version of W10 in PE0.2 and 13lb. It’s crazy good 👍🏻 In the W6 I’ve been using 0.128mm I think it’s PE1 and I’ve been fishing crankbaits a lot on it and again it’s performed perfectly

[@RikkiHockey]

@@Thomhuntfishing Wow sounds promising, I will definitely try them. Congrats on the 51 cm, thats a stunner!

[@russellkirkbride3373]

I'm looking to but a 5gram to 15 gram casting weight what reel would be best I will be catching perch and jack pike would a 2500 reel be to big

[@dariusorintas1387]

OMG fantastic perch Thom 51cm the is monster fish

[@tamasgotthard1727]

Hy Jörgen! I fallow you long time ago. And now i want to buy my frist westin rod. I was woundering w4 ultrastic or w4 finesse t&c Which one is better for jigging method? Perch zander pike is the destination. Thx

[@jorgenlarsson7413]

Hi Tamas! I would recommend a Finesse T&C rod.

[@tamasgotthard1727]

@@jorgenlarsson7413 thank you very much👍

[@simpafisking]

What reels does team westin use?

[@EsoxFlow]

looks like the C3000 Vanford

[@mauricetoussaint7283]

@@EsoxFlow Vanford yes, I also use them on the same rods. Looks more like a 2500 though - much better size for the rods they're using

[@Thomhuntfishing]

Hi there, I had 2 set ups, both 2500 size one is a Shimano Sustain, the other is a Vanford 👍🏻

[@jorgenlarsson7413]

I am using Vanford size 2500

[@htbomber]

Hei, very nice video, i have one question why u both removed middle hook on the jerkbait?Because of the weed?

[@Jyeriksson]

which version of the W3 Ned rod are u using in this video?

[@lovelandin5366]

När släpps jerkbite i butiker? Eller har jag missat detta helt? Såg riktigt hett ut! Härligt film.

[@jorgenlarsson9279]

Lite osäkert just nu

[@FredrikAndersson597]

The thing about the perch (and the pike) going shallower the colder it is in the Swedish archipelago is not entirely correct, I would say. That logic applies to certain archipelago areas, such as Blekinge archipelago, Kalmar etc., but not in the Stockholm archipelago, for example. There, the lake logic, that the perch go deeper the colder it gets, is more generally correct. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that Stockholm's archipelago is a significantly deeper archipelago than, for example, Blekinge and Kalmar, with greater depth and where the bait fish are adapted to that environment. Blekinge, Kalmar etc. are much shallower archipelagos right through.

[@borreholic]

Yeah, I guess there are both extremes with everything in between, depending on area and type of water. I still think it's fascinating that I can catch decent amounts of perch (not regularly, but it happens) on 1,5m depth in the archipelago north of Stockholm in like early November, in an area where it's 6m deep only 100m away or a bigger open bay (fjärd) with 10m depth around 1km away. If I try to do the same thing in my lakes (say 12-15m max depth), it feels there's not a single perch soul on shallower than 3m from early October an on and I could cast forever without a contact... So it has to be more to it than only availability and proximity to deeper water..

[@Mulukkis]

Who's making those "jerkbites"? Where can you get those?

[@Mulukkis]

Tried to search around. Seems that we don't have these Westin Jerkbites in Finland yet.

[@westinfishing]

[@lucaslogg1024]

Swedish archipelago can have the best perch fishing there is, but also the worst. The Swedish coast have mostly vast areas that is completely dead due to industrial over fishing.

[@westinfishing]

Sad but true Lucas... Hopefully it will get better.

[@pedereriksson7]

It is a shame that trawling is allowed to continue. They should be banned outright. Only sustainable, small-scale fishing should be allowed.

[@Julius-d9z]

Hi. What boat is this? :)

[@pedereriksson7]

Kommer ni släppa Jerkbite i färgsättningen Green Ghost som Jörgen kör med?

[@lucaslogg1024]

I do not question the effiancy of the jerkbite :) The profile of that jerkbait seems very like a megabass oeneten, and there are many jerkbaits that copy that prophile. But there are jerkbaits on the market that have a prophile of its own. But I do not complain, I do not have the money to loose a one eten. So bring-em-on with close -enough-to-one-eten-baits that don't break the bank :)

[@Thomhuntfishing]

Yes it has a long slim profile like many jerkbaits out there, however each brand makes them different with rattles, balance, suspending of floating/sinking, lip style and amount of movement, colour range etc no 2 jerkbaits are the same! And yes, the Westin Jerkbite is not only superb as a fish catcher but has a retail price of €12.99 for both the shallow runner and the medium runner, which in my opinion is too cheap!

[@pasasobolev574]

Салют друзья, я тоже хочу купить такую приманку, подскажите где купить.

[@fabianmens1251]

Make a w6 twitch rod

[@Thomhuntfishing]

Great idea…. Watch this space 😉

är detta i Kalmar kanske ? =P , förstår om svaret blir " hemligt" , men skadar inte att fråga ! fina fiskar ni fick! // MVH Jonas
