Are you looking for a lure that is easy to fish with but still keeps a lot of top water action? The Arbogast Jitterbug is probably your answer. To be honest, there is really only one way I would recommend fishing this lure, and that’s to use it how it is designed. The small plate in the front was designed to cause the lure to shimmy back and forth by itself. Therefore, instead of having to use a slack retrieval method like walking the dog, you can just let the Jitterbug do a smaller side to side motion for you by a steady and medium speed retrieval.

Can The Arbogast Jitterbug Be Used For Night Fishing?

The noise on a Jitterbug is also very unique. Since you are doing a consistent retrieval and there is a consistent noise, many fishermen enjoy using this for any type of night bass fishing. What you will hear is a consistent popping noise that is produced by the way it disperses the water in front of the lure. It also has to do with the way the lures plate on the front slaps against the lure as it goes through the water which gives it another different type of noise which fish seem to be attracted to.

Does This Lure Come In Different Models?

There are actually three different models. Your first would be the standard Jitterbug which comes with a treble hook on the back and is the classic Jitterbug that many fishermen have been using for years. I think Arbogast got in on a good market when they produced the Weedless Jitterbug. Now, obviously, there is still some risk of getting the lure snagged, but the smaller hook protected by the body of the lure and with it being skirted it will significantly help reduce the amount of times you will be snagged on logs and other brush. The last option you have is the Jointed Jitterbug. This actually has a wagging tail to produce a bigger motion in the water than the classic Jitterbug.

The treble hooks hanging from the lure are bright plated and the action from the jointed tail sends out some extra flash to the fish below. When fished slowly, the Jointed Jitterbug makes a sort of plop-plop sound. Reel it a bit faster and the plopping sound becomes a bit more frantic mimicking wounded prey having a heckuva struggle and needs to be put out of it's misery.

The Jitterbug, whether it be the straight bodied Jitterbug or the Jointed, offers awesome action when fished in the shallows at night. With the jointed tail, I tell you, the bass can't resist the side to side action. My favourite time to fish this lure is in the warmer summer months during a full moon. The Jitterbug howls to these big predators and they can't ignore. For even deadlier action try the Jitterbug Clicker.

One downfall that I've found with the Jointed variety of the Jitterbug is that the tiny screws come loose after catching several big fish, which in general doesn't take too long with this lure. Just keep a tool handy and keep an eye on the screws and tighten it up when necessary. It's worth the little bit of work and the extra attention, believe me.

I've pulled up everything from big bluegill, to 5,6,7 pound bass, to northerns and musky on this lure. I'm not kidding when I say the big fish will be tugging at this lure, so be sure to add some heavy abrasion resistant line to your spool, you don't want them wrapping you around something that can cause your line to break.
