Catch Two to Three
Fish at the Same Time
I have been using Strike King 3X Soft Jerk
Bait called a Z TOO but with a twist to add to the
fun.
Putting three on the same line about 18 inches
apart with a 4 or 5 wide gap hook will give you a thrill
and more excitement when more than one bass hit the jerk
bait.
Fish the Z TOO Jerk Bait on a fast tip rod to allow you to
jerk the tip which makes the shad move in different directions
like something is chasing them.
After casting my custom made triple Z TOO jerk bait rig
out at the end of a tree that I can see laying in the water and
letting the baits sink below the surface, I will either jerk
the baits or lift my rod up slowly. If I feel the least bit of
pressure, I will set the hook but patiently wait for the next
bass to strike
Do not horse the fish in due to the fact ninty percent of the
time there is another Bass trying to get one of the other
baits.
This is legal in a Tournament and I gave the idea to a guy the
other day and he called me to let me know that he caught the
biggest Bass of his life doing just what I told him to do.
Think about it!
You have never seen a bass going after just one shad. I know
that this tip will work for you and it might even surprise you
catching two or even three bass with just one cast like you see
in the picture posted above.
One cast and two bass caught equal one great and fun time at
the lake.
The only problem I can see is if you catch two eight pounders
and one wants to go north and the other south.
Work it out and have fun with this tip using the Z TOO Jerk
Bait.
Keep the hooks Wet!

On second thought even though you are ready
to go try to catch two to three fish at the same time, fill
your coffee cup again and stick around awhile to learn
some more bass fishing
tips, bass boat
tips and discover some new
things from Steve's Tackle
Box.
Want to learn more about fishing a
lake?
On a serious note, practice
Catch and Release
fishing.
Take a picture and measure the fish length
wise and around the belly then turn it loose for another
battle another day. I have seen replicas made from the
picture taken that look better than the real
fish.

Got to admit as crazy as it sounds, it really works, I love the idea it looks like a small school of bait fish, and when I jerk it, the flukes look like they are running from something. Many of times I have caught 2 at a time, and waiting to get that triple. Thanks for spilling the beans on this method.

You got it David, I am like you have not caught three yet. It seems they always hit the top one and the bottom fluke, but I know the day is coming and Like you will be able to brag about catching three in one cast. Let me know when it happens.
