Here, we’ve chosen to divide the lures into different weight groups, just as we’ve categorized rods into casting weight groups, to make it easier for you in this jungle.

Ultra-light includes the very lightest lures, often weighing just a few grams.

Light includes many of the lures used for perch fishing with smaller soft baits, small crankbaits, and spinners.

Light - Medium and Medium contain most common lures in the mid-weight class - spoons, crankbaits, spinners, and other lures intended for everything from sea trout to lighter pike fishing.

Heavy is a common measure for pike fishing.

Extra heavy and Super heavy include lures for, e.g., saltwater fishing and heavier pike fishing.

Here, we’ve categorized the products based on which fish you want to hook. We’ve relied on what manufacturers specify, but also on experience of what usually works. The list could almost be endless, and many things work for more species than we’ve listed, so don’t be afraid to experiment.

Jerkbait Fishing – An Aggressive and Effective Technique

Jerkbait fishing is an exciting and active fishing method that targets aggressive predatory fish such as pike, musky, and large perch. This technique involves using hard-bodied lures that require the angler to impart action manually, creating an erratic, wounded fish movement that triggers strikes.

How Jerkbait Fishing Works

Unlike traditional lures that have a built-in swimming action, jerkbaits rely on the angler’s input to bring them to life. By using short, sharp jerks of the rod, the bait moves unpredictably through the water, mimicking an injured fish. This irregular movement often provokes a reaction strike from nearby predators.

Jerkbait fishing is highly effective in colder waters when fish are less active, as the stop-and-go motion allows the bait to pause, giving fish a chance to strike. It is also a great technique in weedy or structured areas where predatory fish hide and ambush prey.

Essential Gear for Jerkbait Fishing

  • A short, stiff baitcasting rod (6-7 feet) for precise control and powerful hook sets.
  • A low-profile baitcasting reel with a strong drag system.
  • A braided mainline for direct sensitivity and minimal stretch.
  • A fluorocarbon or wire leader to prevent bite-offs from toothy predators.
  • A selection of jerkbaits in different sizes, colors, and buoyancy levels (floating, suspending, or sinking).

Mastering jerkbait fishing requires practice, but the rewards are worth it. The intense strikes and visual nature of the technique make it one of the most adrenaline-pumping ways to catch big predatory fish. Whether fishing in lakes, rivers, or coastal waters, jerkbaits are a must-have in any serious angler’s tackle box.
