Jerkbaits, aka. stickbaits, can be dynamite lures for speckled trout....especially in shallow water like Big Lake. You gotta learn how and where to use them, tho. Casting and retreiving like a crankbait ain't gonna fool many fish. Sure, you'll stumble upon a few, but, you want to fish it shallow and cause as erratic an action as you possibly can....keeping in mind that a wounded baitfish always swims with it's head up. Throwing it during a not-so-aggressive topwater bite is one sure way to learn alot about a jerkbait. If you've got blowup after blowup without a hookup...throw a jerkbait in behind it and work it as you would a rubber bait...only faster. If you come up empty...you ain't fishin' it right.
