Barracuda Barracuda Baits 6" Jerk Fluke Soft Plastic Bait


Hey there, angler! Get ready to make your fishing buddies green with envy when you reveal the secret weapon in your tackle box: the Barracuda Barracuda Baits 6" Jerk Fluke Soft Plastic Bait. Crafted with precision and a keen eye for what the big ones can’t resist, this bait is the real deal. Let's dive into what makes it a must-have for your next water adventure.


Description and Habitat

When you’re aiming to hook that trophy catch, you need a bait that moves like the real thing. The Barracuda Jerk Fluke is designed to mimic the erratic action of injured baitfish, a major temptation for predatory fish. This bait shines in a variety of covers - whether you’re casting near weed beds, drop-offs, or suspended in open water, its natural glide and twitch will stir up strikes like you wouldn’t believe.


Rigging and Methods

Rig this bad boy weightless for a smooth, horizontal descent or with a weighted hook for those deeper haunts where the big ones lurk. Go for a Texas rig or a Carolina rig if you're after that bottom-bouncing action, or try it on a drop shot setup when finesse is the name of the game. And don't forget the classic twitch-twitch-pause retrieve — it's killer for when you need that jerky, unpredictable movement that makes predators go wild.


Forage Imitation

The 6" Jerk Fluke is your go-to for simulating a wide range of forage fish. From panicked shad to fleeing minnows, it’s got the size, shape, and swim to fool even the wariest of bass.


Every pack hooks you up with 6 of these beauties, perfect for a full day on the water or an epic weekend trip.

Standard Colors


  • Tennessee Shad: A classic shad imitation with a silver-gray hue. Great for both bright and overcast days, and a champion in clear to moderately stained waters.
  • Pearl: A lustrous white that stands out brilliantly. It’s a go-to on sunny days and performs exceptionally in clear water.
  • Bubblegum: A vibrant pink that's impossible for fish to ignore. It’s surprisingly versatile, suitable for both sunny and cloudy conditions, and best in clear to slightly stained waters.
  • Bluegill: Imitates the sunfish's natural colors, perfect for all lighting conditions and stellar in clear to stained waters.
  • Silver Bullet: A flashy option that excels in sunlight. Designed for clear water, it’ll have predators shooting in from all around.
  • Green Pumpkin: A versatile, natural color that works any day, any time. Whether it's bright or cloudy, clear or murky, Green Pumpkin is your all-conditions ally.

The "Barracuda Barracuda Baits 6" Jerk Fluke Soft Plastic Bait" comes in three salt levels:


  • No Salt: For a buoyant, lively action that stays up in the water column.
  • Light Salt: Adds a bit of heft for a faster fall and a more pronounced thump.
  • Heavy Salt: For when you need to get down to business. It sinks quickly, ideal for deep water or windy days.


Choose from five scent options to make the bait irresistible:


  • No Scent: Pure, unscented for the purists who believe in the lure’s action alone.
  • Anise: A sweet, licorice-like aroma that's been proven to attract fish.
  • Coffee: A rich, natural scent that masks human odors and entices fish.
  • Hog Sauce: A potent blend of crawfish, shrimp, and baitfish scents for an irresistible triple threat.
  • Garlic: Known to be a fish magnet, especially on those tough days when bites are scarce.

    Each aroma is specifically designed to give you an edge on the water, catering to different conditions and fish preferences. Whether it’s the natural allure of Coffee or the strong presence of Garlic, there’s a scent to match any angler’s strategy.
