Directions: Cast, troll or stroll your Perch Jerker spinner using your favorite knot and 6-8# test Mono or Super line on a light to medium spinning combo. Rig and Weight in a number of ways described in each appropriate style listed below. Always give spinners a quick snap to get the blades going. Don't set the hook: let them load up the rod and use a sweep set.
Casting: Pinch on a 1/16th -1/2 oz Bullshot or split shot any-where from 1'-3' ahead og the spinner. Fan cast, countdown to the fishes zone to determine a productive depth. Usually 1-3 seconds before it hits bottom or ticking weed tops to begin your retrieve. Reel slowly varying your retrieve with occasional pauses and twitches.
Trolling: To quickly locate active schools of fish try numerous rigs as appropriate. Add a 3'-4' Fluorocarbon leader in 6-8# test. Depending on the depths you're targeting, weight your line using a 1/4-2 oz. in line trolling weight, egg sinker or a bottom bouncer. Slide the egg sinker up your main line and attach it to the end of a swivel, then tie your leader on. Cast out 20-50' behind the boat and slowly troll at .8-1.5 MPH over weed flats and edges. Remove the hook and use the clip and the Perch Jerker as a leader and incredibly flashy attraction for crank-bait trolling. Try a Slow death stylie Jerker by clipping a snap swivel and slow death hook of your choice tipped with half a crawler and trolling behind your planer boards or bottom bouncers drives eyes wild.
Strolling: When shorelines allow Strolling can be a fantastic way to locate active schools and cover more water. Cast out and let it sink to the productive depth. Slowly pull it along varying your speed while walking along steep shorelines, harbor walls and piers where Jumbos congregate. Watch where you're going!
Tipping: Live bait-Soft-shell crayfish tail pieces, claws or heads. A chunk of crawler, minnows or a couple "two, tree" wax-worms or spikes. Plastics- like the Little-Atom Lures Nuggie and their Jumbo Wedgee or something like the TriggerX Minnow or curly tail grub all rigged horizontally. Change the hooks with plain or Dressed trebles and tip with cut bait fillets for exciting great-lakes salmon and trout action.
