Bearking 130mm Suspending Jerkbait Minnow Hard Bait
Bearking 130mm Suspending Jerkbait Minnow Hard Bait
This 130mm suspending jerkbait is built for anglers who want a minnow bait that hangs in the strike zone instead of rising or sinking away from a following bass. The tight wobble and subtle roll mimic a dying or disoriented baitfish, which triggers reaction strikes from largemouth and smallmouth holding near cover or suspended over structure.
Cast it past laydowns, dock pilings, or grass edges and work it with a twitch-pause retrieve. The suspending action lets the bait sit still on the pause, giving bass time to commit. It runs 2.5 to 3 meters deep, making it a solid choice for mid-depth flats, points, and staging areas during pre-spawn and fall feeding periods.

How to fish it
- Cast beyond the target area (dock, laydown, weed edge) so the bait enters the strike zone naturally
- Use a twitch-twitch-pause retrieve, letting the bait suspend motionless for 2-3 seconds between twitches
- Vary pause length based on water temperature; longer pauses in cold water, shorter in warm water
- Watch your line for subtle taps or movement during the pause, which often signals a strike before you feel it
Frequently asked
The 130mm size matches well with average to larger largemouth and smallmouth bass, making it a good choice for anglers targeting quality fish rather than numbers of small ones.
A medium-power spinning or casting rod with 10-14 lb fluorocarbon or 20-30 lb braid with a fluorocarbon leader gives good action and solid hooksets on the treble hooks.
Yes. Natural, translucent patterns work better in clear water while brighter or more contrasted colors show up better in stained or murky conditions.
Suspending jerkbaits like this one produce well during pre-spawn and fall when bass are actively feeding on baitfish in mid-depth water, especially in cooler water temperatures.
