Part jerkbait, part squid, the Jerksquid combines aggressive darting movement with a slow, lifelike tentacle pulse that keeps working even when you’re not. Its keel-shaped body and pulse-hold tentacles create dual-action performance, mimicking the frantic escape of fleeing bait and the slow shimmer of a dying squid. Built from Titan-RX elastomer and infused with Tracer Scent, UV and Glow, this softbait is designed to dominate from estuaries to deep offshore structure.
Hybrid Profile – Combines jerkshad dart with squid pulse.
Keel Body Design – Sharp directional twitching movement.
Tentacles – Shimmer and move on the pause.
Flat-Stable Sink – Horizontal fall that stays in the strike zone.
Reactor UV + Glow – High contrast in deep or dirty water.
Tracer Scent – Triggers bites and holds fish longer.
Titan-RX TPE Build – Ultra-stretch, tooth and snag resistant.
Rigging Versatility – Ideal for jighead or vertical drop setups.
Jerksquid Darts like a baitfish, then pulses like a squid on pause. The tentacle shimmer continues even when deadsticked. Great for all water columns.

Hybrid Action Profile
Combines the sharp, erratic dart of a jerkshad with the lifelike hold-and-pulse of squid tentacles. Responsive to rod input on the lift and naturally fluttering on the pause making it lethal during retrieve pauses and deadstick moments. -
Multi-Zone Rigging Capability
Suited for a range of rigging methods: jigheads for cast-and-retrieve or slow hop techniques, and paternoster/drop rigs for vertical presentations in offshore depths. Flat-stable body geometry ensures natural horizontal posture on slack line fall. -
Gear Recommendations
Pair 2.5”–4” models with light spin tackle (6–12 lb braid, 6–15 lb fluoro) for inshore work. Larger 5”–9” sizes fish best on medium-heavy gear (20–50 lb braid, 30–80 lb leader) with jigheads or dropper rigs suited to water depth and species. -
Built to Last & Trigger
Made from Titan-RX™ TPE elastomer for extreme stretch and reef durability. Combined with Reactor UV + Glow for maximum visibility and Tracer Scent channels for enhanced strike conversion, especially effective when paused or deadsticked.
