I have historically had some success with bladed jigs like Chatter baits. Most of this was further south where there is more flooded cover and aquatic grasses. 

I’m going to try to force fed them to Bass since I have flooded bushes st BSL. 

I primarily have 3/8 oz and 1/2 oz baits. I like dark colors for heavily stained waters, Bluegill colored ones for Post Spawn, and I have some shaddish colored ones. 

I’m using paddle tail swim baits for trailers mostly, but I have used straight tail worms in a pinch and I got some GYCB Zakos that I’m trying. 

I bought the High Dollar Evergreen version Chatter Bait and it is first class, but only marginally better. I don’t think I will be buying more of them. 

I throw mine on 15-20 pound fluro with a MH spinnerbait rod. I think it is 6’8” with a soft tip. 

This has been such a slow spring, but my efforts so far have been fruitless. Maybe water temp has not been sufficient yet. What water temp is required for this bait to be most effective? 

Anybody else using these type lures?

Details?

 

The water temp is good for it . But for me I have to have stained water . That is the only time I’m throwing one
