oooh boy. Welcome to a new obsession.  JB fishing  as stated before, is a bottomless rabbit hole.  It's one of the few techniques that gear and set up can truly make it or break it.  There's so many videos on YT going over the gear, but your rod and line are critical to get that proper snap and pause out of the bait.  You will need to let the fish tell you if they want floating, suspending or sinking, but suspending usually covers things well enough.  Also don't be afraid to spend some money on the bait, one of the few times where the jdm stuff is legitimately better.  The vision 110 junior plus one is the real deal.  Tactical bassin and intuitive angling are great resources on youtube for jerkbait advice.  They always push the expensive stuff, but their breakdowns of the mechanics of the technique are solid and helpful.

Thanks for all the advice.

 

Right now, being bank bound, losing expensive lures is a concern. I'll probably start with Rogue's and Husky Jerks for that reason.

I acquired a size 10 Xrap the other day, going to do some experimenting with it soon.
