The Jerk Bait or Better Known as the Miracle Bait
As we continue to approach cold water fishing no bait has been more successful when the water temperatures are in the 40抯 than jerk bait.

If you believe in miracles than this bait offers you hope that no other winter bait can offer, it just plain catches fish like no other!
The jerk bait craze has brought winter fishing to a new high and new hope as it has become the search bait for tournament fisherman and pro抯 alike in the coldest of weather, not only does it produce bites but it produces big bites. Winter fishing becomes easy for most of the fisherman who have struggled in the cold temperatures.
There are certain keys to fishing jerk baits, the first being to understand the difference in the wobble and the depth that these baits perform in. If the bait doesn抰 have a distinct wobble you need to find another manufacturer. The SPRO jerk-bait has the best fish catching wobble of any of the manufactures on the market; not only do they entice bites but they make them in several depth range and sizes. You can purchase them with the ability to range from just under the surface to range of 10 ft. of depth. If the bait fish that the bass are feeding on is small then you can find Spro jerk-bait that varies in size, varies in length and varies in depth range allowing you to match the forage and depth the bass are feeding on.
When the going gets tough as we approach winter fishing change your patterns and for most of us change your winter preferences; go to the winter bait that will make you a more proficient fisherman on the coldest of winter days; the SPRO jerk bait.
