BEARKING 115mm Suspending Minnow Jerkbait
BEARKING 115mm Suspending Minnow Jerkbait
This 115mm suspending minnow is built for anglers who want precise control over depth and pause time. The slim jerkbait profile and tungsten weight transfer system give it a tight, erratic wobble on the jerk and a true neutral hang on the pause, letting it sit right in a bass's strike zone instead of floating away or sinking out.
Running in the 1.6 to 4 foot range, it covers points, grass edges, laydowns, and suspended fish over deeper water. The suspending action makes it especially effective in cold water or during post-frontal conditions when bass want a bait that stops and stays rather than keeps moving.

How to fish it
- Cast past the target area and let the lure settle for a second before starting your retrieve.
- Use a series of sharp jerks with slack line to trigger the darting, side-to-side action.
- Pause between jerks and let the bait suspend, especially in cold water or when fish are following without committing.
- Vary the cadence, mixing short twitches with longer pauses until you find what triggers strikes that day.
Frequently asked
The 115mm size matches a typical baitfish profile and works well for both largemouth and smallmouth bass in the 1 to 5 pound range, though larger fish will hit it too.
Suspending jerkbaits like this shine in clear to lightly stained water where bass can visually track and react to the flash and action.
A medium action spinning or casting rod with 8 to 12 lb fluorocarbon or 10 to 15 lb braid with a fluorocarbon leader gives good control over the pause and action.
It performs especially well in cooler water during pre-spawn and fall transitions, when a slow, suspending presentation draws more strikes than a moving bait.
