Are you interested in chatterbaits and spinnerbaits? Today's video is all about cutting through the hype to find the best baits and trailers so you can catch more fish. We've tried dozens of different lures and narrowed our selection down to the very best. These are the exact baits and colors we trust when we go fishing.
When it comes to chatterbaits there are 3 main considerations. You need to look at the quality of the hook, the quality of the snap, and the time it takes for the blade to start vibrating. With spinnerbaits, its about the quality of hook, type of skirt, and diameter of wire. Subtle differences in material have huge repercussions with these baits.
Below you'll find links to our favorite chatterbaits, spinnerbaits, and trailers. We've included our favorite colors for each, as well as the rods and reels we use to fish them. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

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

@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.

@thereelgoodlife 2 года назад

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!

@WONDES984 2 года назад

THANKS YOU BROTHER VERY NICE

@lhofkamp 2 года назад

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.

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.

@williamwheaton8614 2 года назад

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 2 года назад

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

@edpelkey7798 2 года назад

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

@MrShawnmg 2 года назад

@rickvann3489 2 года назад

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

@robvallance1719 2 года назад

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 !

@hunterbull7804 2 года назад

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 2 года назад

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 2 года назад

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 😉

@hookedonbassncats 2 года назад

@akilidebrady3785 2 года назад

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 2 года назад

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

@Milehighsnake98 2 года назад

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.

@jr7003 2 года назад

Excellent video!

@Mjones8383 2 года назад

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. 😂

@kirkblackadar7299 2 года назад

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

@jasonallen3189 2 года назад

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.

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.

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 2 года назад

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 2 года назад

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 2 года назад

@@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.

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.

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 👍

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?

@steves9589 2 года назад

Have you guys tried out the glass rods from the SLX line yet as a budget chatterbait rod?

@timlee2877 2 года назад

I really like spinner baits but I feel like they don’t swim through the water very well. Almost like they have a lot of friction through the water. Any suggestions. Maybe try a small one? Thanks.

Completely off topic, but is mend it still your preferred way to repair soft plastic swimbaits? On topic, have you tried any of the angry dragon chatterbaits?

If you guys are looking for another rod/reel to review check out the Abu Garcia MaxToro I just picked up the combo the other day at a local sporting goods store for $99 the reel alone retails for $149 so I got steal on it lol from what I understand it's a musky set up but I feel like it could also be a decent big jig hook and weedless swimbait rod in a pinch I'm gunna have to find out for myself I guess cuz I can barely find any information on it that's not in swedish or something 😂

What makes you choose that IMX Pro BJR instead of a composite or glass rod? Do you think that G Loomis rod has the rubber band feeling of that Dobyns 734H Glass?

I know off subject from this video but how do you guys put the owner ST-35 designed for crank baits on your mega bass deep six and deep 300 on? I noticed when put on they don’t line up like they should on the back. Do you guys add a split ring to the back to have them sit the way they are suppose to by chance? Thank you guys.

What size nishine snap. 0 1 or 2? Thanx for all you guys do

@andrewvolcom11 2 года назад

Nevermind searched the comments and found the answer... love all you do with exception I now find myself spending more money on the little things I didn't think mattered(,split rings, upgrades, rigging parts), and I'm buying gram scales to weigh my stuff lol... the knowledge gained and the improvement to the game is worth it. Thanx again

Can’t believe you don’t have Megabass P5 MadBull for a spinner bait rod??

@Mr.Higgs. 2 года назад

The mini-max chatterbait I think is the same exact size as the micro chatterbait just with the better components.

@tacticalbassin 2 года назад

Better components and a MUCH stronger hook.

What size snap

@jonathangreen6088 2 года назад

Been catching them on a green gizzard mini max with a Berkley "The Deal" trailer. They won't eat the jackhammer but they will eat the mini max! BOOM! THE JUICE IS LOOSE!

@NorthWoodsWes 2 года назад

Wait, so I wasn't seeing wrong, the jackhammer chatterbait is $25? 😳 (Newerish to fishing here)

@tacticalbassin 2 года назад

It's actually $15.99, but yeah. It's pricy. The Chatterbait custom will be a comfortable alternative 👍🏼

@brandonrussVOLS-FAN-4-LIFE 2 года назад

What size snaps do you use on your chatterbaits?

@tacticalbassin 2 года назад

In the Nishine we use the larger snap.

@nathanWV94 2 года назад

The snaps come in multiple sizes. What size do you recommend?

@tacticalbassin 2 года назад

The larger 👍🏼

@johnmango6056 2 года назад

I threw a straight up green pumpkin jackhammer with a green pumpkin trailer and caught over 100 fish in a month and a half. After the spawn I tried every color, weight and trailer and never caught another fish on it for the rest of the year. Super confusing

@tacticalbassin 2 года назад

Isn't it strange when things like that happen?! Something pivoted just a little and you zigged when you needed to zag. Hopefully you get a 2nd crack at it this Spring and you're able to figure out what the right adaptation is.

@johnmango6056 2 года назад

@@tacticalbassin the grass flipping bite turned on and never slowed down until water got into the mid 40s. the moving bite died and never came back. strange stuff.
