It is suitable for both experienced anglers and those wishing to progress with a technical but accessible lure, capable of efficiently covering large water areas.

Versatile, this jerkbait adapts to many situations: prospecting shallow runs, deep holes, shorelines, calm stretches or fast veins of water. Whether fishing lowland rivers, mountain torrents or wider sectors, the Great Hunting 95 offers a realistic presentation that perfectly imitates a distressed baitfish.

Advantages and strengths

The primary strength of the Great Hunting 95 lies in its ability to remain attractive even when motionless. Where many lures go inert during pauses, this jerkbait retains subtle movement thanks to its suspending balance and residual rolling. This trait is particularly effective on educated trout, which often prefer to attack a suspended lure rather than one in full swim.

Its other major advantage is responsiveness to angling input. The slightest rod tip action results in a sharp, controlled change of direction. This instant reaction simulates a panicked baitfish—a cue large trout rarely ignore. By varying jerk cadence and pause length, you can precisely tailor the presentation to the fish’s activity level.

Versatility is also a key strength. This suspending trout lure excels in deep holes as well as on shallow edges, in current and in slower water. It enables efficient long-range prospecting while maintaining excellent swim control, making it ideal for quickly covering ground in search of active fish.

Finally, its performance-oriented, consistent design makes it an excellent choice for anglers who want a lure that delivers reliable results outing after outing. Whether fishing pressured beats or wilder rivers, the Megabass Great Hunting 95 stands out as a reference for targeting trophy trout.

Usage tips

To make the most of this trout jerkbait, vary retrieve speeds and pause durations. A typical retrieve is to cast slightly upstream, perform a few short jerks, then pause for one to several seconds letting the suspending lure work in place.

When trout are active, accelerate the cadence with shorter stop-and-go sequences: a few reel turns, two or three jerks, then a brief pause. In low activity periods or cold water, lengthen suspensions to allow fish more time to inspect the lure before striking.

Also adapt your approach to the current. In a controlled drift, let the Great Hunting 95 work across or three-quarters downstream, keeping slight contact to feel the swim and subtle strikes. In calm areas, animate it more subtly with light pulls and extended pauses.

Finally, adjust leader length and the discretion of your rig according to water clarity. A suitable leader helps fully exploit the natural swim and suspending balance of the lure while convincing the wariest fish.

Answer: Yes, the Great Hunting 95 remains accessible to beginners. Its swim is effective with a simple steady retrieve and it reveals its full potential when pauses and jerks are introduced. It allows technical progression without being hard to handle.

Question 2: In which environments is this jerkbait most effective?

Answer: This suspending minnow jerkbait for trout performs particularly well in rivers and large waters where it can exploit its suspension and rolling. It excels over deep zones, marked currents and areas where trout feed on baitfish.

Question 3: What retrieve should be favored to trigger wary big trout?
