Looking For Other Jerkbaits 2024

Bigchunk reply :

Lc pointers/flash pointers are my go to, have x raps, but not my favoite anymore, im not paying for megabass so what are you guys throwing in the spring?

Jrob78 reply :

Some others to check out are the Spro McStick, the Jackall Squad Minnow and some of the Duo jerkbaits.

thebillsman reply :

try the luck e strike rick clunn stx's.. the hooks are a little weak but some owner st36's work well. They're megabass clones at a quarter of the price and actually fish alright. My 110s suspend great out of the box but the I've always had to tune the smaller variant, 90s?

Nothing beats a pointer though..

Molay1292 reply :

Academy H2O jerkbaits fish well and have a nice finish.

Bluebasser86 reply :

I've been fishing custom painted 110 blanks with great success for half the price of a Megabass.

chitura reply :

Yo-Zuri 3DS is my goto jerkbait.

Hogsticker reply :

Yo Zuri, spro, and Ima Flits are my stand outs.

smalljaw67 reply :

Yo-Zuri 3DB jerkbait is very good, for less erratic acton you can go to the Yo-Zuri 3DS minnow. The Elite 8 Rattlin' Rogues have been fantastic and my best value award goes to the Storm Twitch Stick!!! The Storm Twitch Stick is an incredible $5 bucks at TW but it has good hooks that are pretty stout and it has a triggering property that I only ever saw on a Luck Craft Pointer, when you stop it dead after a few rips, it has a little wobble or vibration, awesome bait and even if it was 48 or $9 bucks I'd still get some. The size 10 suspends pretty good between 54 and 48 degrees, the size 8 needs a single suspend dot. If you shop at Cabelas they have an exclusive Rogue called the G-Finish Rogue, those are getting used a lot when I have sunny conditions, the black glass and Tennessee Shad have been my favorites with an honorable mention on Tablerock Shad when it is overcast and the water has a slight stain.

rangerjockey reply :

My second choice after the Mega bass has always been the McStick. After that, Pointers and Rogues.

A-Jay reply :

Duo Realis.

PAGreg reply :

I just picked up a couple of the new lc lightning pointers. Seem to be pretty decent for $8.99. You can tell they arr a slightly cheaper version of the flash pointer, but they still have good finishes and action.

Logan S reply :

My favorites are Megabass, but you don't want those...After that it's XRaps and Pointers, which you already have . Besides those, the only ones left in my box that see much use are the old standby Smithwick Rogues and more recently Duo Realis.

Every bass fisherman should have at least one Rogue in their box and I've been impressed with the Duo baits I have, so I'd vote for those two. When you want to come to the darkside, the Vision 110's are waiting to catch fish for you .

bunkerbstr reply :

I recently picked up some Shadow Raps and SK jerkbaits. Caught fish on the SK but haven't done anything on the Shadow Raps yet.

I'm with pretty much everyone else on here, if you can spend $20 on one jerkbait, get a 110 - pick your color and just get one (shiner/shad something like that). I have tried them all and honestly, there is something special about those darn 110's. I wish it wasn't true but it is...

OkobojiEagle reply :

Pointer 75 & Slender Pointer 97

IDUTBass reply :

Anybody here use the Evergreen jerkbaits? I just picked one up but havent got to use it much.

ww2farmer reply :

Another fan of the previous mentioned Storm Twitch Stick, very very good "bang for the buck". I also like the SK KVD's.

Yep. Just stay away from the smaller STX (3.75"). You cannot cast it.

Agree that nothing beats an LC Pointer. Flash Minnows will catch em good too when you are fishing shallow flats.

Ginosocalbass reply :

Wierd to think someone would put money into Lucky Crafts but draw the line at megabass due to the price.

PourMyOwn reply :

Rapala HJ 10 on 6 lb fluorocarbon, another rod with 8lb. I think there's a good bang for the buck with them, as they come with what I think are good hooks already.

Siebert Outdoors reply :

LC 78-100's is pretty much what I throw. Some Rick Clunns.

Jaw1 reply :

I'm a mega *** but the rick clunn knockoffs have caught plenty of fish for me. As mentioned above the hooks are week but I do not change hooks for fun fishing. I have some of everything mentioned above and catch fish on them all but the 110 just out catches the rest. I plan on trying the duckett jerkbaits that are very similar in appearance to a 110

RB 77 reply :

I occasionally throw X-Raps and Daiwa DB's. The Pointers are the real deal though. The first "expensive" bait that convinced me that some "pricier" baits are worth the investment. Now you wont catch me with out my Gunfish either.

15 for pointer 25 for mb thats a big difference

Bigchunk reply :

But thanks ppl! The future only knows what ill buy!! Ha

speed craw reply :

Evergreen , jackall , ima " japan select " series , duo realis, all awsome choices.

EvanT123 reply :

I keep a stash of good ol husky jerks.

bowhunter63 reply :

SK,Raps and storm thunder stick.They produce really well.

timsford reply :

Pointers, rogues, husky jerks, long A's, squad minnows, and duo are what I use the most. The rd stx is the best copy of the 110 that I have used. I can't stomach paying that much for a jerkbait especially since a big striper can hit at any time and snap your line

Slade House reply :

Lucky crafts rule the saltwater in Califronia, but i gott give love to the megabass 110

Other brands?

Duo , Imakatsu, the Daiwa's are really good, Lucke-strike,

fishballer06 reply :

Shadow Rap

Husky Jerk

BX Minnow

Flap Slaps (Megabass, but $20, and they float)

McStick

Munkin reply :

Smithwick Rogue

Rapala Husky Jerk

and if you can find them Xcaliber XS4 or the Edwin Evers version

Now I get bashed for it but I think the Vision is only an average bait and yes I have a few of them.

Allen, if you find the Visions only "average" then you won't be using them. I'll take a few at $8 each.

Just let me know and I'll PayPal you.

MidwestF1sh reply :

My cabelas had LC pointers and some LC square bills and lippless for $5.99

smalljaw67 reply :

I was going to include a Shadow Rap but I didn't have enough time with it yet but from what it did for me in the spring I'd have to say that if it works as well during the fall, well I'll be all in. It may be good to get at least 1 regular and 1 deep diver.

webertime reply :

LC Flash Minnows

LC slender pointer

Long A

MidwestF1sh reply :

I did extremely well with the shadow rap this year. Deep and shallow. It has great action and I had a ton of fish hit it on the pause. Killed the largemouth in the spring and the rest of the summer got some big smallies. The only downside is it isn't the easiest to cast far with wind. I stocked up with about 5 shallow and 5 deep.
