Westin Jerkbite 9 cm is a suspending jerkbait designed for targeting perch, pike, zander and other predatory fish in shallow water. Its responsive darting action and balanced suspending design keep it in the strike zone during pauses.
Westin Jerkbite is a versatile hard lure designed for both jerkbait and twitchbait fishing. Work it with short or longer rod movements to make the lure dart from side to side like a panicking baitfish. It also performs well on a steady retrieve, offering an attractive swimming action. The perfectly balanced suspending design keeps the lure at approximately the same depth during pauses, giving predatory fish an opportunity to strike. In colder conditions, longer pauses between twitches can be particularly effective, while more active retrieves can be used when fish are feeding aggressively. The integrated long-cast system uses two steel balls that move into the tail during casting and settle back into the belly during the retrieve. This helps deliver long, accurate casts and contributes to the lure's sharp, erratic darting action.
