Has anyone used this lure? Can it be used like a jerkbait  or use it like a crankbait ?

Thanks

Never used it, but you wanna fish this like a jerkbait. There are a few forms of retrieves to be experimented with.

1) Reel steady with twitches at 114 beats per minute. Just gotta fool around and find the effective cadence, or retrieve timing.

2) Same retrieve as #1, but with random pauses.(Seems like the best retrieve for the flat rap, which floats up during a pause, whereas i'm used to them sinking)

3) I've done well deadsticking a jerkbait with minimal action.

4) Sweep the rod a good bit to the side. This will cause it to dart like a fleeing, injured baitfish. Pause 3 to 5 second while reeling up slack, then sweep the rod again. Most of my strikes come on the pause, when the lure rises slowly. Again, experiment with cadence until the fish react in your favor.

i almost never reel a jerk in steady.
