Description
Bass like active baits and will compete against each other for a meal. You won’t need to force feed fish when tossing this bait. This lure is classified as a Medium Diving Minnow LSP and has a shaped body. Most anglers encounter topwater stripers one of three ways. Casting at breaking fish is one of the more exciting methods. Catching a couple of fish at dawn or dusk feedings. And covering water and crossing your fingers while fishing the surf is another way.
Fishing topwater lures for striped bass is a very exciting way to catch active fish. Popular topwater lures for stripers include pencil poppers, bottle-neck poppers, and walk-the-dog lures. Fishermen dream of big stripers smashing up the surface to eat a topwater plug, but the biggest bass do the vast majority of feeding on the bottom. Striped bass may be caught either by bait fishing or trolling. In the Delta, threadfin shad are probably now the most common bait.
Stickbaits and jerk baits are hard-bodied lures, but they differ in shape and intended action. Stickbaits are long and slender, designed for a “walk-the-dog” or diving retrieve, while jerk baits are minnow-shaped and fished with a snap-pause retrieve for an erratic, darting action. This color works well in clear water, stained water, and even in low light conditions. The natural look of green pumpkin mimics the appearance of many bass prey, making it a go-to choice for many anglers.

You can effectively use jerk baits for bass year-round, especially during spring and fall when water temperatures are ideal, and bass actively feed. Consider using them in clear water, especially during periods of low light or when they suspend in the water column. Anglers use stick baits and jerk baits as hard-bodied lures, but they differ in shape and intended action. The lures shape is slightly bowed and provides a “bounce” when used on the surface.
Fish shaped lures range from surface lures to shallow diving and deep diving. Anglers can use this bait as a surface or shallow diving lure. Traditionally, bass anglers casted jerk baits in the spring and fall to cover water fast where walleye anglers trolled these lures in the spring and fall to cover water fast. Trolling jerk baits along rip rap or over shallow sand, gravel and rock contours is a proven big walleye equation each year. In water temperatures from 50 to 70 degrees combined with visibility under 4 feet, the jerkbait will produce best under partly cloudy skies and a 10 to 15 mph wind.
