BUYER'S GUIDE: CHATTERBAITS, SPINNERBAITS, AND BEST TRAILERS

[@mikeybalzz]

Chatterbait Custom is hands down the most bang for your buck - Jackhammmer is a beast though.

[@tacticalbassin]

That Custom is an awesome option! Sometimes that shorter shanked hook is just what you need as well. Thanks man!

[@johnpodolak5958]

Mikey Alex love your channel as well, great stuff!!

Currently listening to this while putting away a truck order for my chipotle. Been watching you guys since last summer, just wanted to say thank you guys for all the knowledge

[@morganvanschuyver]

It surprises me that they don't have more subs. Its such a informative channel.

[@tacticalbassin]

Thanks Kevin!

[@POPADIX]

I have been watching all of your videos for so long now my wife even knows who you are. Just from hearing you guys talk and her being in the room. I send her your buyers guide videos every Christmas when it matches something I’m in need of. She says she uses it and she gets it right so I believe her. Lol

[@tacticalbassin]

That's exactly what they're for 👍 Nicely done Tony!

[@upthecreekyt]

Really like how you cover the price ranges. Hope everybody's loved ones looking for gift ideas see this video. Merry Christmas to all of you!

[@tacticalbassin]

Thank you! Merry Christmas!!

[@bassmayhem4215]

For along time I only caught lmbs on a Carolina rig and a lipless. One day I took only 2 color chatterbaits out and a handful of trailers. Finally got one on the verge of quitting. Now I love them. Have a small box just for em. The big blade is really good as well.

[@jasonperrin6959]

This is good stuff, I like how this breaks down a huge category into a simplified version

[@tacticalbassin]

Thanks Jason!

[@thereelgoodlife]

Chatterbait is in my top 3 lures of all time. It’s truly incredible. I have always used the Zman Elite. I’ve now switched to saltwater since moving to the emerald coast. Chatterbait has landed me my 3 largest fish so far!

[@johndigby8963]

Thanks for another great year of posts. I wish you all the best for Christmas and the new year and I look forward to more great vids.

[@adammolotfishing]

You guys are the best! Learned more from you guys than anyone else in the industry and caught my PB with your baits. Love the content and am excited to try the Hog Farmer Spunk Shad from my Hobie kayak

[@lhofkamp]

Maybe it's just me and my pressured water but the chatterbait Freedom is straight money. I love being able to change out hook sizes and the freedom action with a big kicking swimbait is phenomenal. Plus being able to install EWG hook allows me to rig it weedless and significantly fewer snags.

[@seizedcarcass8440]

The mini max in awesome. I can throw it on a medium fast baitcaster with no issues and it has a really fast startup which seems to be to do with the blade size. Also it has a solid variety of colors and sizes. If you want a cheaper option get the chatterbait mini.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

​ @TacticalBassin I recently purchased an Evergreen Jack Hammer and even though I haven't used it yet I'm EXCITED about what you said about the action starting IMMEDIATELY because I have other chatterbaits where I can feel it's not moving correctly unless I rip it like you said. I THOUGHT I was doing something wrong but it's nice to know I wasn't. I can't wait to try out the Evergreen Jack Hammer after watching this video.

[@luster5497]

I love the way bushy hair-jig fold up into a pretty tiny bait profile, I wanna switch the rubber-skirt for hair-skirt

[@Milehighsnake98]

Z-Man used to have a bucktail chatterbait.

[@makcatchem9614]

OK I just wanted to say. As soon as he said I have 4 Chatterbaits I paused the video. And said out loud, it must be a jackhammer, custom, cross-eyez and mini-max... Damn I'm in the zone this morning lol

[@tacticalbassin]

Hahaha nicely done 👊🏻

[@envyfishingg]

I've been fishing for bass for about 5 years now and have yet to hook into a fish using a chatter bait, I'm going to buy the Jack hammer with the trailer you recommend because it looks awesome, hopefully it works, I'm going to make a video on it

[@simplyscholar21]

St Croix has a 7'2 Heavy/Moderate Victory for chatterbaits. It's only 3.7ozs and for 200 bucks, it's a great deal.

[@hunterbull7804]

I found a lot of confidence throwing jackhammers. My go to trailer is the Zman Razor Shad, even though they’re a massive pain to put on the hook. I also tried a Zako but didn’t like it as much because it doesn’t move as freely. I cannot stand glass rods so I was looking at the P5 Madbull. Ben at The Hookup said it’s his all time favorite casting rod and it’ll throw pretty much every moving bait

[@kennethspenser6281]

I have a P5 Madbull. AWESOME rod. Have it paired with a Metanium 150B. When the Jackhammers first came on the scene I went with the ZAKO's because they were designed as a jackhammer trailer. I was wondering why Matt and Tim moved to some new trailers. After seeing the video I can see why ! I thought my Christmas shopping was done :(

[@tacticalbassin]

Kenneth, Isn't it amazing what a little underwater footage can do?! You think you know your bait and just a few seconds of actual viewing, your perception is permanently altered. We started comparing trailers underwater and now we have a lot of new favorites. 👍 Hunter, we actually haven't put much time on the Madbull, we need to give it some more water time. I'm not sure you can beat the models we're currently using but leave it to us... we'll find out 😉

[@rickvann3489]

Very amazed that you use an 844 for spinner bait. I have a 1996 IMX MBR 844 and I use it for jigs and creature baits and brush hogs large. Never dreamed to throw a spinner bait with it seems really stiff. I'm going to give it a try

[@leehubbell9636]

Thanks for the great information as always.

[@envyfishingg]

I'm not going to lie the lakes I fish don't have monster bass like these guys catch so I take there advice ish, kinda why I started my channel to help people that fish our water, but I do love there content

[@akilidebrady3785]

Happy Monday Tactical Bassin'. Thanks for another great video. I throw chatterbaits, but they haven't become the confidence bait for me that they are for so many. Guess I haven't found my groove with them yet. Have plenty jackhammers and great trailers as well. Hopefully it will click one day soon!

[@tacticalbassin]

It will click one day. The right conditions will happen and you'll mop them up with it 👍🏼

[@Milehighsnake98]

I've actually had more good days with the original chatterbait than the jackhammer. That said, I have the Crosseyez and a couple other styles. Sometimes it's just a little different vibration or speed that's needed that you can only get with one kind. And with everyone throwing jackhammers, sometimes switching to a different head design or heavier bladed (standard chatterbait) is all it takes to go from no bites to hammering them.

[@hookedonbassncats]

I love your passion for tackle and gear. I am the same way, but I'm slowly building a good arsenal. I got a long way to go though.

[@willperryman4559]

K.I.S.S. Great Job Mighty Matt👍 I just got the 7’2”MHGA and the Curado MGL150 during Black Friday and I have the Loomis 853C. I placed a few orders this year through your links, and I believe you guys have earned and deserve All the success 💯 Happy Holidays to The Entire Tactical Bassin’ Families 🙏

[@tacticalbassin]

Thank you Will!

[@edpelkey7798]

Thanks, Matt great stuff! I love the blades on the SV3 and the wire arms. Jackhammers trailed with the hog farmer are awesome too!

[@Straight_Kash]

FYI the Nishine snaps are great, the Mini Max takes a size zero. Much better than the stock snaps that come on it. And I don’t know if it’s just me but it’s a pain getting snaps on and off, mine as well just use cutters to cut off.

[@tacticalbassin]

It's a huge pain! Thank you for the heads up on the mini max size... hadn't changed those out yet.

[@JoeyB7615]

I have made a custom 1/2 oz chatterbait for years for myself the mini max is almost perfect

[@robvallance1719]

Ive always had a problem with the amount of $$$ those Jackhammers cost and could never justify why. After watching your explanation, It makes more sense. Gonna bite the bullet and get a few and see if it really makes a difference. Thanks for all you guys do !

[@theangleraquarist]

You won’t regret it!

[@jessescheel7600]

Vike tungsten bladed jigs are my go to downsized chatterbait. They do struggle to start vibrating and need an upgraded snap but they have a hunting action that is amazing! Try one. You can tank me later

[@familybudgetfisherman]

This was a great overview for both novice and experienced anglers. I did wonder however that you did not discuss the Picasso nor the Strike King Thunder Cricket. Was there any reason for the omission?

[@luckylucky9006]

Tim I enjoy all your content and have learned alot. However I noticed that I don't see you mentioning berkely trailers or the yoto worm which I think the yoto worm gives great action & does catch all kinds of fish I just wondered why those haven't made your list or even honorable mentioned. Do share with me why that is. Thank you for your feed back.

[@roc_on_bassin3293]

By far my favorite bait is the jackhammer (THE HAMMER) lost a few but hit a school of smallmouth on the spot remover with the Z-man minnowz in bad shad

[@ronswinford4952]

Good overview of these lures. Surprised neither of you had a Bantam for spinnerbaits, it is the one Shimano reel I own now and love it for spinnerbaits. The screaming eagle can be a killer on spotted bass as well as largies.

[@williamwheaton8614]

Man this last season i struggled with a bladed jig most of the season, even in the prime time for it. I had a bit of success with it early back in March here in Illinois around some cypress trees. Besides that it was dead. Now I’m not normally a spinnerbait guy but this year I had some real good days with a spinnerbait even on days where I shouldn’t of been getting bit on a spinnerbait. I’m talking dog days of summer mid July middle of the day. But my best days were in the early season and into late October, and I did most of my damage with a 5/16oz finesse war eagle with a combo Colorado and turtle shell blade, it came with a gold Colorado and silver turtle shell but in the fall I had some cloudy rainy day tournaments that I changed the silver turtle shell out for a gold so it would show up better and it paid off with a couple first place finishes and a 2nd place!!

[@tacticalbassin]

That sounds like so much fun!! Way to go!

[@kirkblackadar7299]

I fished my st Croix legend tourny elite LBC7 1 *MHEF* to death this year, it is their swim jig finesse rod. It was the first "higher end" rod I purchased since re kindling my love of chasing bass. Anyway, you can't say enough good things about technique specific rods when you've decided to go to the next level. Winding in a chatterbait the rod feels like an extension of your body, the sensitivity etc. That soft tip is a blast and the mid section powers through. Cheers

Big bite baits has impressed me I will stick with those for my chatterbaits

[@jasonallen3189]

Question on the mini chatter bait, is it the same quality as the jack hammer in terms of the blade starts as soon as I retrieve it? I pay the extra money and love the jackhammers for that reason. Got used to fishing them and don’t want to fish the mini wrong. Also would like to wish you both along with your families a very safe and enjoyable holidays. Y’all have helped me catch so many more bass with this channel and turned me on to baits I love that I didn’t know about. So the channel works to its full intentions.

So glad you didn't mention my favorite small spinnerbait, they've been killing it for me since the fall transition and I've won a ton of money on them while everyone else can't get bit on a blade. They're hard enough to get now, and would be impossible if TB mentioned them. 😂

[@alexwilliams8131]

What do you guys think about the Picasso line of chatterbaits? Also I have the 7’2 expride mh glass and was wandering what other techniques you like for this rod? Always enjoy Monday Wednesday Friday mornings and learning something new. Thanks guys!

[@tacticalbassin]

Thanks Alex! The Picasso line is confusing, to be honest. So many options, all with different purposes... but we're getting to know each one as time goes on. We love some of their underspins so its only right to explore the bladed jigs. That glass rod is a great all around cranking rod as well 👍

[@captnse]

I fish mostly from shore at my local lakes, and was unsuccessful in catching fish with a skirted chatterbait. I tried countless times....Then I watched a vid from another bass pro who said to remove the skirt from the chatterbait and put your fav trailer (Zman RazrShad) on, and I was starting to get bit. Now I gotta find a way to keep the fish on once I hook them...I probably need a more stout backboned rod.

[@tacticalbassin]

Sounds like your local lake is a clear water fishery? If you're finding success with a shirtless chatterbait you'd probably find even more success by dropping down to an underspin swimbait.

[@captnse]

@@tacticalbassin Thanks for the tip! Yes, I fish in fairly clear water....I have plenty of underspins...I’ll have to retry them again....I’ve been doing well this time of year on lipless (TN70’s) and 3/4 Oz blades (Binskys)...those are my fav to fish and cover lots of water further out from the shoreline....but they do pickup more grass in the lake, so I convert my treble hooks to double hooks to minimize weed hangups.

[@TrulyForgiven]

Can you put a soft plastic swimbait on the screamin eagle??? I don't see much of a hook shank on that spinner bait. What trailer can you put on it and what size??? Thank you

[@brendenwlodkowski7585]

I’m hoping to use the mini max to target smallmouth this spring and into summer!

Yep! It should be perfect for that!

[@lhofkamp]

Need a question answered. I don't tie on every lure, I use clips (eg VMC touch-lok snaps). Is there a good way to loop the portion of the wire where you tie on? Most of my muskie gear (1-2oz) and some of the bargain brand come this way. The only good way I've found so far is to put a small split ring over the end and bend it out a bit. Thoughts?

[@richardblake4777]

Super video Matt, would love to have either of the rods you and Tim use but they are beyond my means. Any rod recommendation in the $50 to $100 range? Thanks for your expertise.

Was wondering if TB has gotten their hands on one of the G.loomis SBR spinnerbait rods. I know they have IMX pro and GCX now, would you still go for an MBR taper? Also, do you guys boat flip your spinnerbait fish?? I found myself reaching for the net more after bending out too many this year.

[@tacticalbassin]

It definitely depends on the spinnerbait. Some can take the flip, some can't. Neither of us have put hands on the new SBR rods but I still own the old version. Personally, I really like the MBR actions for a spinnerbait 👍

[@harrisonrecce]

What do you guys think of the Champion XP 735 glass? I’m thinking about picking one up

The St Croix Victory 7’3 MH that Matt reviewed earlier this year is an absolutely badass spinnerbait rod. St Croix is really good at those softer tip actions and that particular rod is a lot like an MBR and just a tad bit stronger than the 843

[@jamesh7469]

The 7’3 H victory is kinda like an 844 as well, the “extra fast” rating st croix gives it is a total misnomer. It has a soft tip as well

I'm a smallmouth junkie would the mini-max in 1/4 ounce with the 3.5 spunkshad be a good finneese option if every body is throwing the 3/8 and 1/2 ounce if so what rod action and length and line do you recommend I'm fishing with a 12' kayak

[@theangleraquarist]

Yeas but in my opinion it would be better to go to 3/8 or 1/2 oz

Base the weight on how deep you're fishing. A 1/4oz with a trailer would still be at least a 3/8oz bait combination, if not 1/2oz so same rods would work.

How do you need a crankbait rod and a spinnerbait rod to differ? My Dobyns champion xp 765 crankbait rod I just picked up says it can throw spinnerbaits, will it do it well enough that it can play double duty? Just asking because I trust you guys more than the rod company, thank you.

[@tacticalbassin]

That soft tip section works great for both spinnerbaits and crankbaits. The difference is a spinnerbait eventually needs to get to back bone so you can firmly plant that jig hook... a crankbait needs to keep on flexing to absorb head shakes with trebles. I haven't thrown that particular model unfortunately but my gut would be to go to a shorter rod, that way even if it was a little light for the spinnerbait you could flex through the mid and reach the power section sooner for the spinnerbait. I hope that makes sense!

[@kalronn]
