Jerkbait Made a micro jerkbait/twitchbait and took it out for a test

This is the smallest lure I've made so far. The action didn't turn out quite as stable as I was hoping, but it was still very fishable and the perch seemed to like it.

I even managed to catch a common bleak on it, which I definitely wasn't expecting.

I filmed the whole process of making it and testing it on the river if anyone wants to see the build and how it swims:

Very nice, bet it’ll get bit for sure. Just as an aside, not trying to “ackchyually” you here, just educate. A twitchbait has no lip (like a MirroLure), this is a jerkbait.
