In this video I break down one of the most underrated tools in bass fishing: the deep-diving jerkbait. Specifically, we’re talking about the Strike King KVD 300D. I’ll show you what makes this bait different, how it gets down deeper than most jerkbaits, and why that matters when fish are suspended or pressured.
I cover a few of my best tips for cadence, gear, and line selection, plus how to trigger bites when bass won’t commit to a standard jerkbait. If you’re looking to become a better jerkbait angler — this video will help you put more fish in the boat.
Some of the biggest smallmouth I catch at Dale Hollow are on rattilin rogue deep suspending jerkbait. Starting back in 2006. So much fun.
