Well, I admit I am a sucker for new things but I ordered some of those chatterbaits to see what all the fuss is about- the video looks nice-wide wobble and lots of vibration from what ive read- better for us muddy water river rats down this way, but I am anxious to give it a try where i normally fish a sb or square bill crank

Can you get us some pics or links to see what the bait looks like? I have no idea what it is, or what it looks like.

there is a video that plays when you get to the site and another one you can watchthese are the lure that won the big o everstart/stren and was second and fifth (fritz) i think in the flw. Go onto bassfan and you can find some of the comments about it- they talk about it being good for dirty water that they fished down there- i figure its worth a try for me
January 26, 2006 at 6:03 pm #414866Very interesting idea. Is it just me, or does it look like it would gum up with weeds easily?
January 26, 2006 at 6:05 pm #414867usacproshop.net also carries these at $6.95 a pop…with the same video…very interesting
January 26, 2006 at 6:47 pm #414893I agree, doesnt look very weedless but they are using it in reeds and florida weeds from what it sounds like. I ordered a few to give a try at least.
January 26, 2006 at 7:13 pm #414907Cool, let us know how they look.
Even if it’s just bathtub tests before spring.
January 26, 2006 at 7:18 pm #414910How is that different that the new Berkely power spoon or whatever that goofy thing-a-ma-jig spoon looking gizmo gadget that you put your worm on and it wobbles it?
BIGDADDY280Posts: 64January 26, 2006 at 9:02 pm #414937I purchased a bunch of these baits at the BASS classic in Pittsburg last Aug. Great bait if you use it like a crankbait. I would not recommend line heavier than 12lb. for this presentation. It is slow working. The company is a father and son deal, really great people!!! they have a pitchin and a casting model. To tell you the truth can not tell the difference other than the colors that are made available. It will catch a weed if it is within 5 feet of it!! NOT very pratical for that scenerio!!! The whole concept is based on a planer-board model attached to a jig head that is skirted with a split-tail or a grub trailer. I am sure it will catch something at some time!!!(bigger fish) the fish like the gold version with more regularity than the siver. It is a sheephead catchin son-of-a-gun Good fishing!!
