Chatterbait/wakebait

Featured Replies

So i was fishing from the bank tonight while at a party and had only a chatterbait(SK) but noticed bass eating on top and could not get a bite so i tried throwing it and burning it right under the surface and if youve thrown sk chatterbaits you know they will rise when reeled fast so it kept coming out of the water and wouldnt stay just below for long, anyways i couldnt get a bite but i tried doing the same retreive and held the tip a foot under water and would stay just below the surface and made a nice wake with swirls the whole retreive.. the bass were all over it... the turbelence/wake from that was unlike any wakebait,topwater etc..

Definiteley going into my bag of tricks...

Killer technique!!!!! Although I don't need to put my rod in the water with then original chatters I use. Works great at night!!!

By originals do you mean the Z man chatterbaits? If so they would be easier to keep just below as they dont swim up lime the strike king design, they also dont have near the thump as the strike kings but im sure they have their times, cant wait to try it more with different brands..

Yes the originals. They wake pretty well. Similar to waking a spinnerbait.

Try a strike king rage blade the two "wakes dont compare" but im sure each has their time and place...
