Jerk fishing
Jerk fishing or how it is abbreviated is also called Jerking – shook the entire fishing world. That is, catching special bait – jerkbaits. And quickly became popular. The reason is the exciting fishing process, and of course, the big fish that are caught. Lures – jerks, provide an opportunity to catch a decent pike, which is not ashamed to show friends.
They added new blood to the world of spinning: working with a rod and a reel you can accurately show the behavior of the bait in front of a predator.
Jerking differs from twitching in that it uses large and sinking baits. You can fish in great depths. Therefore, even the most calm and languid pike is caught, the weight of trophies pleases.
But not so simple – advertising this fishing promotes specialized spinning and multipliers. A novice fisherman at the time of mastering jerk fishing is difficult to understand all the variety of gear.
First of all, the rod is selected. Hunting will be done on large individuals, then a short spinning will do, which can throw 100 grams of bait. When fishing from a cliff, a longer spinning is selected. Interesting single-part rods, they can withstand heavy loads. But there may be composite – more convenient for transportation. The important role played by the comfort and tackle in hand.
The next step is buying a reel. This is the so-called “keg”, inertial coil with multiplier. There are still “mills”, but they do not withstand the loads.
As a fishing line suitable pletenka. The thickness of 0.36-0.45 mm will not allow the jerks to come off. Also, with a braided line, one should not be afraid of hooks; with a jerk one can get rid of such troubles.
To connect the bait with braided need a leash. But not the same as for ordinary fishing. It must be strong and tough. A lead from titanium wire is suitable in all respects, because the pike has sharp teeth. Also connecting carbines should not be weak.
The last step in picking a rod for fishing with a jerk fishing line is the purchase of a bait – Jerk. It may be small fish with a natural color. The length should be 10 cm, weight 50-70 grams. After all, a big fish willingly goes for a big bait. Novice anglers should start with sinking jerk compilers. They are more versatile in wiring, fly further, because the heavier with smaller sizes. Should be purchased and slowly sinking jerk. With it you can fish for different river and lake places, where sometimes pike likes to fatten.
