Chatterbaits are one of the best lures ever made! If you don't use them, you're missing fish! Its a great lure because you can pair it up with a simple chatterbait trailer and go down the bank catching fish, but you can also take it to a whole different level! Today we're jumping down the Chatter bait rabbit hole and exploring different retrieves, trailers, colors, and how to adapt the bait to changing conditions.
The chatterbait is incredibly versatile once you learn to adapt your trailers and retrieves. We use 4 main trailers to imitate different prey species. We also adapt our retrieves from a high speed burn, to a popping retrieve, to a bottom hopping presentation, depending on conditions. Learning these subtle nuances will take the chatterbait from a "good option" in your tackle bag, to a "must have" lure that goes everywhere you do.
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.
