You can still use braid. Use 10lb test line braid and use 10lb floro line about 3-5 ft of leader. I do that sometime if I cast it next to grassy area. but I found that using braid, I can’t really work the bait the way I want it. Floro works the best for me.
What gear ratio do u prefer??
Are you kidding? 17 years old, kinda young. Do a Google search for Roland Martin and you will see why Scott is a Pro. Not to hard to learn from the King of Bass fishing, his Father that is.

That’s a good one for sure!
are u tha real scott martin or someone else
It is jerk bait time fa sure. But I like the L.C. Pointers
Just recently got into fishing and man by far you are my favorite to watch… I think this video is the oldest one I’ve seen yet but man I love your explanation and the way me the viewer can see the lure work and how you the ANGLER works the lure…. man good stuff and I appreciate everytime my Google searching brings me to you
A good one…
George dubbayew is a bass pro?
1:00 he’s going to JERK it down to the right dept haha
its a lip on the bait to get it down to what ever depth of water u want
Michael you can use a small tieable wire with no snap and no swivel
Should suspend a bit better
You can also use braid as main line
What about for pike fishing? I’m using 12lb mono and a 40lb fluro leader and it sinks. I really want it to suspend but dont want a toothy fish to break off my $10 lure…
Mr. Martin. I have been fishing for years, but never tired jerk baits (but I have a few and will try them) my question please sir….to get the most action out of the bait, would a loop knot be good, so it has more movement, or just a palomar knot?
Awesome tips. Now to put to practice.
Your welcome!
These baits are no jerkbaits! Or do you call these baits jerkbaits in your country? Because jerkbaits does not have a spoon under the head( at least in sweden)
Thanks
Fifth…
In the states we call the lipped ones jerkbaits.
Great explanation of how to work the jerk bait. Thanks Scott!
yeah
what about braid? i hate floro
YES!! Thank u!
Damn so you do alot of jerking
lol bass love good paint jobs guys
Hey Scott, thanks for your video! Thanks for the explanation and recommendations on using jerk baits. I just got my first one and been looking for a good video. I just subscribed too.
Ohh okay:)
In sweden we call ‘lip’ the same name as ‘spoon’ in swedish… But in sweden jerkbaits does not have a lip… Do you call the baits in this video for jerkbaits?
Thanks for the good info.

I need one of thous, jerk bait dont get much play in louisiana, but i like that other angler’s dont use it hahaha.
SWEDEN !!!!!!
Rick Clunn STX Jerkbaits are killer in March up here
Why make a video if youre not going to demonstrate? Whats the point?
Med action is what I go by…there needs to more of a standard on all the fishing rods. Very hard to get the right one without feeling it. You want a “snappy” or slightly “noodlely” tip with a little backbone.
Floro works the best….try 8 pound test. You can try a 2 ft. long floro leader on braid. Use a double Uni Knot.
Thank you! Please “like” the video
I used it yesterday in a few ponds where many other baits weren’t working I have 2 of them and I found that the reflective ones work better than the ones that are not I caught about 10 out of these ponds on all the same lure plus I only caught one out of a pond on a hollowbody frog back when they were on beds and I caught 7 within 10 casts when I tied it on
IS THIS THE REAL SCOTT MARTIN OR SOMEONE ELSE LOL
