Chatterbait Fishing – Everything You Need To Know! (UNDERWATER FOOTAGE)
If you're a serious angler, you need to fish a chatterbait! These bladed jigs catch a ton of fish, and they catch giant bass too! By changing trailers you get get a chatterbait to mimic shad, panfish, crawfish, and a variety of other prey species. You can keep it simple, or follow us down the rabbit hole as we explore chatterbait trailers, colors, retrieves, study underwater footage, and more. Let's go!
The chatterbait is incredibly versatile once you learn to adapt your trailers and retrieves. We use 4 main trailers paired to 4 different chatterbaits to meet every situation we face. The chatterbait can remain a simple option in your arsenal, or you can start adapting retrieves from a high speed burn, to a popping retrieve, to a bottom hopping presentation, to take it to a whole different level! Its up to you, but either way you need to commit to the chatterbait this Spring.
Below you'll find links to the exact baits, trailers, and gear discussed in the video. We've included our favorite sizes, colors, and styles for every option. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
