I have a few of the Zman micro and mini chatters and it is about 50/50 on them running well.  Oddly, I have noticed that they EDIT give me a bad rash in the jock-area EDIT, far more than they do bass.

If you can PM me the secret to getting them to run consistently, I will go back and delete my posts.

Don't put the trailers on them that comes with them and don't fish them on anything heavier than 4lb test and use a very slow retrieve. I either use part of a trout worm, or tie some yarn on for a trailer.

Post edited to preserve your secret.  And thanks, I was fishing them on my Ned rod, with like an 8lb floro leader.  

Yarn is a funny but great idea for a chatterbait trailer.

 

I use 1/2oz for castability.  Anything lighter with a trailer of any size stays too high up in the water column for me.  I switched to using little grubs for the trailer but I may actually try the yarn trick.

I've been messing with some big ones. These have the magnum blades and are 3/4oz heads. Had some fish slam them yesterday.

That clear/black/pumpkin looks killer. I wish I had a few of those skirts.
