  • Catching big prespawn smallmouth with a jerkbait is one of my favorite things to do. In this KVD in the Zone video, learn why this technique is so deadly this time of year. One of the biggest mistakes I see new anglers do when fishing with a jerkbait is moving it with the reel. You always want to move the bait by jerking it with slack in the line at the start to get maximum action.

    KVD triple grip hooks are the only way to go. Have been using them for years!

    This is just like my last three outings. I never tied off my matte shad jerkbait ..went out to the lake 3 times in 6 days, and slammed fat pre spawn smallies ALL “evening “ long.. what’s weird here in upstate ny the didn’t really want to hit it til about 3 when the sun got right over this creek point as it sets behind it. Once they started biting it- they were hitting the jerkbait harder than I’ve ever felt. This particular lake these smallmouth only have big panfish and maybe golden shine and some emerald shiner- if there is there isn’t enough for the population- so they eat what’s plentiful- bluegill , perch, maybe even crappies.. given the hard mouths and teeth on these suckers and sheer muscle I’d say they’d kill or very badly stun any size panfish it wants to eat with ease…it was awesome that my jerkbait got to experience that… after the 2nd outing I had tooth rash rings on multiple spots of my jerkbait on in the middle section. Was throwing blue pearl shad LC sp78 -which is a 🔥 discontinued color,in the 10+ft zone, and a KVD J100 in the 3-4 water to my right working both the bank and the creek mouth… what a week. 100s of pounds of smallmouth in a very short period . Thanks Kevin 🐐 you really got me into jerk baiting and it’s true power when you released the shallow running J100. I know it took you years to perfect..but perfect you just may have for a shallow runner..I throw it in inches of water and work it into just a foot or two slowly and methodically and can get jerkbait bites where others can’t. They just can’t say no.

    The GOAT is back. Miss seeing you on MLF buddy, but glad you're still putting out content. Jerkbait is my favorite weapon during the spring, It gets the big schools fired up. Enjoy your pro retirement. God Bless

    Fish from TC to the bridge have caught fish on jerkbaits but not consistent. Either I can't figure the cadence or just not fishing them in the right place. Seem to catch as many toothies and Wallys as I do Smallmouth. Headed up this weekend to give it another shot.

    I honestly dont see how he can throw a jerkbait all day. My wrist gives out after 20 casts.
