One of the most common questions I get here on KZfaq is when should you use a Jerkbait vs. a Crankbait and vice versa. So today’s installment of Ike in The Shop is the how, when, where, and why you should use a Jerkbait vs a Crankbait! Some important factors to remember that will help you make this decision are, Match the Hatch!, Water Clarity, and the Depth the Bass are IN! Come on, Let’s Learn!

Another great video Ike! It seams so simple. Not only do some of these tips apply to crankbaits vs jerkbaits but the concept also applies to jigs vs spinner baits or top water vs deep diving. You perfectly summed up an entire year of fishing in one video. The main things you should always ask before that first cast. Water clarity and depth, forage, where and how are they feeding. Amazing job Ike!

Based on my experience on fishing in Zambia,Africa, the same type of target fish in different water bodies have totally different interests on the baits, even their daily target feed fish are the same. For example, the large mouth bream in stream are agressive but only attack very small slow sinking minnows. In the large river, same fish attacks any sizes of minnow. In the lake, small crankbaits with yellow greenish colour are the only ones can get the same fish. Again, their daily feeding fish are minnow like.
