You can add split rings to were the blade attaches to the head, this improves vibration a lot! You can also switch out blades , maybe even add a football head and play with your weight ratio , in certain conditions it pays off to drop it faster and deeper into the water column. There is really alot you can do with chatters and for me making my own Is the best!

I will say, I like the jackhammer just because of the “crispness” of the vibration and how quickly it starts. That super thin blade vibrates soooo fast! At 0:55 I thought you said “bitch mark” It’s that dang southern accent

I think they both serve different purposes, which is why I throw both, and I think you break down exactly why. The Jackhammer IS a fish catching machine, but so is the Thunder Cricket (Bruised has been my go-to in this rainy as Hell year in the Carolinas) and they both get it done!

@Harleywindtherapy
@Harleywindtherapy Год назад
This is a great breakdown of the difference, thanks, Alex! I think the Zman willowvibe will do my high, fast vibration and I'll stay with the Jackhammer for 90% of my chatterbait duties. I thought it was interesting you said in the comments you had a box of OG Chatterbaits and limited success... until you picked up these 2. I caught exactly ONE bass on an OG Chatterbait....had a box full...and the one bass was on one without a skirt and just a swimbait on it. Now the Jackhammer... that's tied on my one of my rods all the time now.

@brettsiegle9163
@brettsiegle9163 4 года назад
I think the two biggest differences I’ve noticed are the attachment of the jig head to the blade, and the quality of the skirt. The JH has a solid attachment between jig head and blade, so when the blade vibrates it actually contacts the jig head and makes additional noise other than just the vibration of the blade itself. The TC has a slight pivot at this connection, so you won’t get that contact between the blade and jig head. The skirts are also quite different, but so is the price point. Ultimately, both catch fish, both work great, and both can last a long time. For half the price, the TC is worth a shot; may need to replace the shirt after a while. The JH is still my gold standard, but the wallet cringes if you lose one.
@jaysfishandwhips1328
@jaysfishandwhips1328 3 месяца назад
Jackhammers powdercoated blades wear off after two casts. Nd the twisted wire they use for their skirts pinches it and causes the skirt to fall apart. Dual wire keeper is also one too many and wastes more plastic than it saves. I agree on the difference in sound. The thunder cricket also comes in a tournament grade version which is made of a tungsten jighead and better skirt tie. They also have their gold blade lineup. I always take 10lb braid and tie the existing skirt myself nd put a drop of super glue that way it never slides or twists. Always lasts longer. I just cut and remove the original rubber

The Phenix bait is no longer made anymore. They had received a cease and desist order from Zman. It’s the one Brett Hite helped put on the map. D&M used to make a great one too but they too received the cease and desist. Another great one is the Picasso Shock Blade.

BRandomFishing have to put in the time for sure. It doesn’t produce the numbers as a ned rig does but usually produces bigger better quality bass. Make sure to use appropriate colors for your water and body of water and find a good trailer for it with good action. Clear water and spring time light colors work great for me the rest of the year or darker water green pumpkin or darker colors i do well on. Don’t give up it will be worth it good luck brother!

@SimonC82686 Год назад
Never been a fan of bladed jigs, everyone swears by them but I've only ever caught 1 on a mini max and was probably using too big of a trailer for it. Bought up quite a bit of the originals, elites, and even those finesse willowvibes but never caught anything with them, so I hardly ever take them out the house anymore. I finally caved in and picked up some jackhammers and those hog farmer/missile baits spunk shad trailers. Hopefully I'll have better luck with the bladed jigs when spring rolls around. As a bank angler Cherokee was pretty tough though, once they started draining the lake we only had like a month to hit those accessible creeks and pockets before it was bone dry and all the cover was out of the water.

I too have used both and hands down the jackhammer blows away the thunder cricket! It’s by far and away more durable especially with the skirt being hand tied.

Alex, have a question.... Do you actually notice a difference in the amount of fish or the quality of fish that you catch with the Jackhammer or Thunder Cricket vs the original standard $4-5 Original Chatterbait? I have been slaying them on the original chatterbait lately and I personally haven't found a reason to justify a bait that costs 3-4 times what my originals cost. Thoughts?

I have a box of OG chatterbaits I don't throw anymore. I use to catch some fish on a chatterbait when I picked up a Jackhammer for the first time and then the Thunder Cricket that all changed. It went from a bait I had around to one I have tied on all the time.

@@AlexRuddFishing thanks for the reply. Is the hook heavier wire than on an OG Chatterbait? What type of rod/ line do you throw them on?

@@brandonthompson8413 yeah the Jackhammer has a Gamakatsu flipping hook and the Thunder Cricket has a Owner Jungle hook in it. I use 7'6 MH Lew's Pro Series cranking rod, 20lb Fluro, with a Lew's Super Duty

That is my set up also buddy.. well 7'2.. anything with a single hook your going to want a MH for hooksets. That Keitech is killer.

Alex; Any skirts that are held together with a rubber band are terrible - they don't last! If you store them in your boat compartment and they get hot they just fall apart? I recently purchased some 24 gauge wire and wire twister pliers and wire on all my skirts that are banded. They will then last incredibly longer that the cheap rubber bands. All companies that tout a premium product should wire the skirt on.

I've got a old Nichols spinnerbaits from the 90s that still have the original rubber band keeper on them. I get what your saying but it isn't the end of the world.
