Hello everyone, today we're going to talk about a family of lures: \"jerkbait minnows\". They are generally under-used in France, except for pike fishing. We're going to explain everything you need to know about jerkbait minnows and how to use them.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you recognise a jerkbait minnow?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

his category of lures imitates fish such as bleak or roach. Jerkbait minnows are therefore generally elongated and relatively thin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


If, for example, you're looking to fish in less than fifty centimetres of water, your jerkbait minnow should have a very short lip and its angle should be as close as possible to 90 degrees to the horizontal axis of the lure. If, on the other hand, you want a jerkbait minnow that goes deeper, its lip should be longer and its angle should be in line with the lure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A jerkbait minnow is usually rigged with two trebles. Minnows with three treble hooks are very common on the market. It is also possible to replace treble hooks with single hooks. This will not only preserve the fish, but also give you greater protection when handling them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you animate a jerkbait minnow?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are several possible animations for a jerkbait. This family of lures is very versatile, allowing you to trigger attacks by animating in several ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
