 Experience the Power of the "Super Glow" Feature

The "Super Glow" feature is a game-changer for anglers, as it allows the bait to absorb light and then emit it in a unique, eye-catching way. This innovative capability significantly enhances the bait's visibility and attraction, especially in low-light environments like early mornings, dusk, or murky waters. Whether you're fishing at dawn or in deeper, darker areas, the "Super Glow" ensures your bait stands out, drawing more attention from fish and increasing your chances of a successful catch.

 Casting Technique:

• Balance the Lure: Before casting, give the lure a quick shake to shift the internal weights to the rear. This ensures a streamlined flight and maximizes casting distance.  

Retrieval Methods:

Steady Retrieve: A consistent, moderate-speed retrieve keeps the lure at its optimal depth (1–2 ft) and is effective in clear water conditions.

Stop-and-Go: Incorporate pauses during retrieval to mimic an injured baitfish, triggering predatory strikes from fish like halibut.

• Twitch and Pause: Use quick rod twitches followed by brief pauses to create an erratic movement, enticing reactive strikes from nearby fish. 

Color Selection:

• Match the lure color to local baitfish. Popular choices include Metallic Sardine, Ghost Green Smelt, and Aurora Barred Surf Perch.  

Target Areas:

• Focus on areas with structure such as troughs, sandbars, and rip currents. These spots often hold feeding fish and increase your chances of a successful catch.

By mastering these techniques, you'll enhance your surf fishing experience with jerkbaits like the Lucky Craft Flash Minnow 110. Remember to adjust your approach based on water conditions and fish behavior for optimal results.
