What's a rip bait?


Bocomo,

To me, a "rip bait" is pretty much any long skinny crank bait. The rip part is how you retrieve it. You "rip" it forward and then real in the slack and repeat the process. Not sure if that is what Al means though.

Edit: And then you have yer "jerk baits." To me, similar to a rip but the difference is the distance is much shorter on each retrieve portion of the cycle. But again, these are what I call these things. Maybe not what the pros call them.
