Description

You may notice some of the lures pictured are not the Kreg style jerkbaits. To save a little time until I can paint more I have just included some standard Vision 110 style bait to show the pattern. Anything ordered from this page will be the Kreg style jerkbait. The Krej is a revolutionary hard bait that is creating a new style of fishing called "Krejing." This lure defies conventional jerkbaiting, by working its way upwards in the water column, only to fall backwards towards its target. Designed to excel with Forward Facing Sonar, krejing allows the angler to take advantage of being able to see how the fish reacts and work the bait up and away from the fish better imitating a natural fleeing motion, or back towards the fish to trigger reaction strikes. Although created with FFS in mind many are catching tons of fish just fishing it wherever you would normally throw a jerkbait. Features Unique ascending and darting action when worked Backwards fall on pause Combination of ascending action and back slide on the fall maximizes angler control and time in the strike zone Can be fished sub-surface or topwater Designed with Forward Facing Sonar in mind Sinking NOTE: Each bait is hand painted in the order they are received. I make every effort to ship the baits within 3 days of receiving the order, however during the busy season it can take up to 5 to 8 business days to ship the baits. In most cases they do ship within 3 days, I never want to make anyone wait but I do need to maintain quality so it can take time sometimes. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or need something in a hurry.

Field Notes

This is a hard jerkbait designed for an ascending-and-darting retrieve with a backward fall on the pause, especially effective when using forward-facing sonar. Work it like a jerkbait around suspended fish, then pause to let it slide back and trigger reaction strikes. It can also be fished sub-surface or even topwater depending on how you work it.

Pros

  • Unique upward-and-backslide action gives the angler a lot of control
  • Built for forward-facing sonar and reaction bites
  • Can be fished subsurface or near the surface

Cons

  • Specialized presentation may take practice
  • Sinking bait can be less forgiving in heavy cover
