Meredith Jerk Crank Floating Crankbait – 65mm 14g

Meredith Jerk Crank Floating Crankbait

The Meredith Jerk Crank is a compact 65mm, 14g floating crankbait with a diving lip and two treble hooks. Its stated diving range of 2.0–2.5m makes it an option for working submerged structure, weed edges and drop-offs. Three internal steel balls assist casting, while 17 colour options offer natural baitfish finishes, translucent patterns and bright attractor colours.

Key features

• 65mm body, 14g weight: A compact hard-body presentation for casting around likely fish-holding areas.
• Floating design: Allows a floating crankbait presentation with pauses between retrieve strokes.
• 2.0–2.5m diving range: Manufacturer-stated working depth; actual depth varies with line, retrieve and conditions.
• Three internal steel balls: Included to assist long casting.
• Two treble hooks: One beneath the body and one at the tail.

How to fish it

Start with a steady retrieve, then vary the pace with short twitches and pauses around structure and weed edges. Suggested targets include Australian bass, redfin perch, bream and flathead, using suitable tackle and choosing locations where those fish are feeding on small baitfish.
