[@smoothcastingwithsmoothie9917]

I have utilized the chatterbait for about 4-6 weeks now and I coincidentally have a black and blue, blue gill type and a white chartreuse. The black and blue has helped me catch 1-5 fish each time I tie it on. They have been very productive for me down here in Texas. I feel I have to mention that I use the Zman brand and I don't buy the Zman jack hammer style that's $15-20. I need budget friendly during these hard times, so I just get the 1st edition or standard for $4-5. The more expensive lures do have benefits like extra wire bait holder, painted blades and stronger hook type but some things I do to maintain my less expensive lures is hone the hook before each time I begin to use it, take permanent marker to color the blades and last but not least a very small dab of super glue at the bait holder to help it stay on. I have used those same chatterbait for those 4-6 weeks. Sorry for the lengthily comment Tyler but I thought it may help new users so they don't get sticker shock when they look into buying some.

[@TylersReelFishing]

For sure some great insights!

[@thestime]

I agree with you. It's hard enough to lose a 4-5$ one much less a 15-20$ one. Shore fishing doesn't help the matter. Lost one last year and decided to almost give up on them. I'm going to give them another shot after watching videos with good tips. Thanks for your tips and good fishing to you my friend!!

Went fishing in colorado today. Our bass here are lackluster unless you're fishing near the southern border. Totally boring day, stained water, clear weather, but we werent catching anything except a baby largemouth and a few blue gills, despite fishing top water all morning while watching them top feed on bugs and schools of baitfish. Just when all hope seemed lost, I decided if anything was gonna catch them it needed to make a racket. Busted out my white Jackhammer and trolled it near some vegetation. Caught two 3-3.5 pound largemouth right around 1 PM, which are very nice bass by colorado standards. It was the first time I fished the jackhammer but you can certainly tell it makes a thump going through the water.

[@toddlester8063]

Thanks for the Chatterbait tips! I have a couple follow up questions: 1) You mentioned Medium rod, but what about action? Fast? Extra Fast? 2) For those of us who only carry around 2-3 rods, let's say I rig up a 7-3 Medium Rod with 40-50lb Braid....what other lure types could I comfortable cast on that same set up?

Moderate fast to fast! Also a spinner bait, or lipless crank bait

I caught a couple nice ones vertical jigging a chatter bait in front of storm drains a couple weeks ago. It was super hot, no clouds, they weren't roaming so they were tucked up under the concrete drains.

[@TylersReelFishing]

Thats wild!! It can definitely be very versatile lure

[@quickresponsefishing]

The ChatterBait is a favorite of mine. I got my biggest bass on the strike king rage blade. I lost my last rage blade two weeks ago before it got cold here in Illinois, my line was sliced by a rough spot on my eyelets after the bass jumped. Now I can't find rage blades anywhere near me. Keep up the awesome content, great video!

[@davidmccartney7577]

Awesome video! My preference is, I always bend the blade about 20 to 25 degrees more for tons more chatter which puts more fish in the boat🧐

[@kjcrawford1688]

I watched a bunch of how to chatter bait videos, this was by far the most informative. It also kinda helped that you were catching fish as you were giving the tips.

I just make my own with a blade attached to a cheapo Arkie Jig. It slays for about $2 each.

[@robhill8197]

I can see the value to both sides here. Honestly IMO (just mine probably not what most feel) I prefer the public lake videos. This video almost felt like the fish were so plentiful you couldn't really get into detail in each retrieve because bass were coming out of the woodwork to eat that thing. I think some fish catching during explanation but some just full "unsuccessful" casts make for the best videos. Congrats though on picking up a sponsor though, certainly not going to be bitter about anybody's success in that regard.

I've fished both back to back, chatterbait to the thunder cricket, different lakes, conditions and chatterbait out preformed the thunder cricket 100%! I mean I have yet to catch a bass on the thunder cricket. The vibration doesn't vibrate enough to catch bass like the Zman chatterbait. The Evergreen Chatterbait is a beast of it's own! I've talked to others and their results are the same. I am glad that you had success with em!

[@TylersReelFishing]

Hmm, you must be doing something wrong with the retrieve. I catch a hundred bass a year or so on em. Watch MLF live too, all the SK pros slay em

Great video. I learned that I can and should let my chatterbait sink (I’ve never done that) and lower my rod tip.

Also, I hope someday to cast like that (and not get backlash). Inspiring.

Fish deep and slow with Finesse tactics!

[@colewright5544]

Hey tyler, I live by a pretty small lake in Texas about 250 acres. It’s heavily fished especially from the bank. It’s a really weird lake. Fish don’t hit your lure. They all typically just pick it up and swim with it. They aren’t aggressive at all. If you power fish you won’t can’t anything all day. You have to finesse fish. This summer I’ve been using strike king z-too ice and getting a lot of fish. Even a 6.8 a week ago. It’s been in the 50’s the past 4-5 nights so the fish aren’t biting. Ive fished everywhere on the lake and can’t get anything. I’ve tried to use more reaction type lures like you talk about in your fall transition video but I’ve yet to get a bite on a chatter bait, spinner bait, crank baits. What do you recommend for this fall transition on a lake where the fish only like slow finesse?

[@bradleyreed1670]
