I started to collect Jitterbugs in 1998 - After landing a very nice bass (over 5 pounds) here in Northeastern Pennsylvania on a 1/4oz Perch Jitterbug. I have been sinced diagnosed with - Jittermania. Since 1997 I have expanded my collection to nearly 200 different Jitterbugs - by some comparisons - a small collection, i know - but its growing ever so rapidly. I hope that through this website I can help to educate people about the Jitterbug - and also provide a place for fellow Jitterbug enthusiasts. This is a work in progress - and will be updated as I have the time. Between work, school and leisure time - I will try my best to update on a somewhat weekly basis. Thank you to all whom have helped by adding baits, or even pictures over the years. Id like to Thank Ron Bennett, Gene Parker, Bill Dietrich, Jim Morrison, Sam Van Camp, Bill Mitzel, Bryant Copley, Mike Hanes, Doyne Aldridge, Mark Shumway and all of the other "bug" collectors I might have missed - of which I know there are several.
