Product highlights
The
DUO Realis Jerkbait 120 SP Pike LTD is a
suspending hard jerkbait specifically developed to seduce the wariest predators. Its careful design combines three essential qualities for a modern hardbait: long casting range, highly attractive action and a
tuned sound signature to provoke strikes.
Thanks to its flat-sided body, this
predator jerkbait displaces a large volume of water, significantly increasing its detectability by predators, even in low-visibility conditions. Its
mass-transfer system using tungsten beads optimizes flight stability and enables long, accurate casts, even into the wind.
In fishing action, the
Realis Jerkbait 120 SP stands out for its ability to remain suspending during pauses, keeping its position in the strike zone for longer. This is especially valuable when fish follow without committing or when they become picky, notably in heavily fished spots.

Advantages and key strengths
One of the major strengths of this
DUO suspending jerkbait is its versatility. It can be worked aggressively to trigger reaction strikes or fished more subtly on difficult fish. Its ability to hold a constant depth during pauses allows precise targeting of the water layer where predators are holding.
The
flat-sided profile enhances rolling and flashing of the lure, making every twitch highly visible. With each rod stroke it skews and performs lateral darting movements that imitate an injured baitfish. This erratic action is deadly on opportunistic predators.
The
tungsten bead system ensures remarkably stable and quiet flight. Once in the water, the combination of tungsten and steel beads creates a
multi-frequency sound: low tones to travel far and attract distant fish, high tones to provoke close-range strikes. This sound combination is particularly effective on educated fish or during low activity periods.
Robust and reliable, this
predator lure is built to withstand intensive use, whether covering large areas quickly or fishing precisely around structures (weed beds, snags, shorelines, drop-offs, etc.).
How to use
To get the most from the
DUO Realis Jerkbait 120 SP Pike LTD, it is recommended to use a spinning or casting rod with power suited to hardbaits. A fluorocarbon line or a subtle leader will enhance presentation naturalness while providing good abrasion resistance.
On a steady retrieve, adopt a regular rhythm punctuated with pauses of varying length depending on fish activity. Its
suspending nature allows the lure to remain suspended during those stops, which often triggers strikes.
For more technical action, alternate jerks and twitching:
- Give short sharp pulls to provoke pronounced lateral darts.
- Then let the lure stabilize in suspension for a few seconds before resuming action.
- Vary cadence: fast to trigger active predators, slower to entice wary fish.
This
jerkbait is particularly suited to lakes, rivers and canals, targeting typical predator holding areas: shorelines, drop-offs, hole edges, inflows or submerged obstacles. Don’t hesitate to adjust retrieve speed and pause frequency according to water temperature and fish mood.
Testimonials
Many anglers appreciate the Realis Jerkbait 120 SP for its ability to provoke follows into strikes. Many report a clear increase in bite rate after adding this lure to their boxes for freshwater predator fishing.
Users also highlight its casting quality: even into the wind the lure remains stable and easily reaches distant spots. Some anglers say it has become one of their go-to choices for quickly covering water while maintaining precise action control.
FAQ
Question 1 : Is this lure only suitable for pike?
Answer: No. Although it is perfectly suited to pike, the DUO Realis Jerkbait 120 SP is also very effective on other predators such as perch, zander or any predator feeding on baitfish.
Question 2 : Do you need technical retrieves to use it effectively?
Answer: It remains effective with a simple steady retrieve punctuated by pauses, making it accessible to beginners. More experienced anglers can exploit its full potential by combining jerks, twitching and stop-and-go to obtain a highly irregular and triggering action.
