I've learned my lesson with thinking if the fish will bite a crankbait they will hit a jerkbait, although on some occasions i can catch em just as good on a jerkbait if my buddy is using a crankbait but i've been humbled more than i would like to admit with this theory. I am a big on jerkbaits but alot of times in my experience if a good crankbait bite is on they won't hit a jerkbait good
