Even at high speeds, a Down Deep Husky Jerk will swim with fish-attracting action without blowing out.

“They’ve got a really wide wobble that walleyes love, especially for trolling wide-open basins,” says in-demand fishing guide Tony Roach, who makes his living on Minnesota’s giant walleye factory, Mille Lacs Lake.

Thanks to an oversized, deep-diving lip, a Down Deep Husky Jerk can reach as deep as 20 feet when trolled, running straight and true all the entire time. It will run as deep as 10 feet when cast and retrieved. Neutral buoyancy allows it to suspend when you pause your retrieve.

Down Deep Husky Jerks feature tuned internal rattle chambers to add loud, rhythmic attraction. Premium VMC black-nickel hooks keep even biggest fish buttoned on tight. Each lure is hand-tuned and tank-tested to swim perfectly right out of the box.
