    Floating jerk bait

    Does anybody make a good floating jerk bait like the old Long A Bomber?

    Husky Jerks are pretty good.

    It’s a little different but it’s one of my secret weapons of choice, look at a 4.5 or 7” suick jerk bait. I used them for musky but when big bass started hitting the 10” version I had to get some smaller ones.

    There is a shallow Smithwick Roque that can be deadly over grass.

    They’ll suck until they jack the price up to $28.99 each. Then they’ll be out of stock as the hottest bait out there.

    H2O Xpress Ultimate Jerk Shad I buy them when they are on sale, and the best value in jerkbaits when they are not.
