Jerkbait CWC Big Bandit

Big Bandit by CWC / Strike Pro

At 19.6cm, the Big Bandit by CWC / Strike Pro is the "maxi" version of the famous Buster Jerk, the top choice when predators are targeting large prey. This technical yet very easy-to-work lure stands out for its perfect balance, realistic finishes, and erratic swimming action. It is a prospecting lure that allows you to linger on a spot depending on the configuration of the fishing position.

• Triple hooks #2/0

Tips from our team of enthusiasts

The retrieve

• On a straight retrieve, cast and reel in and the lure will perform a nice tight "S" swimming action.
• By jerking broadly and slowly with the rod, the lure will make lateral sweeps. Give it time to fully "glide" before working it again.
• By giving short quick rod tip twitches or quarter-turn cranks, the lure will swim almost in place with small lateral movements.

The color

Our team's choice:

• For clear water: C384
• For murky water: C683

As for color, as a general rule, the starting point will be the environment. The clearer it is, the more you will use natural tones; the more opaque it is, the more you will use flashy or dark shades, going as far as black. This is a base that will need to be adjusted day by day.

If you have any questions about choosing a rod, the rigs suited to your fishing area, or the type of line (monofilament, braid, fluorocarbon) to use on your reel, do not hesitate to contact us through our website, by phone, or by visiting our Ardent Pêche store directly.
