Jerkbait Question

Featured Replies

Do u think it makes a diffence if the last treble hook has a fleather or deer hair on it??

It may make the difference on one day but the not on the next.  You just have to fish them both ways and see what the fish are eating that day. My main ones that I use do not have the feather on it, but I have a few in the box that do... just in case

The only thing it seems to effect is how many crappie I catch on my jerkbait.

I have a large collection with and without feathers. I don't think it makes any difference.

I don't think it matters to the fish.  I think what matters more is which one you have more confidence in.

Feather trebles will flair open on a pause more than buck tail.  I've tied some trebles with a natural colored feather (white, olive, grey or yellow) over a tuft of bright orange buck tail.  Can't say it made a significant difference.

Does it mess with the action of the jerkbait

Depends on the jerkbait, how much dressing you use and how YOU work your bait.  Don't over dress the treble and it shouldn't cause a discernible difference.
