Never fails! Every time I watch Tacticalbassin, it gets me fired up to go fishing.. you can hear the passion and excitement in y’all’s voice (especially Matt). Been following you guys for years, and I still get excited to watch your videos.
Same.....and then i go fishing and catch nothing but windburn....lmao. Of course, it helps when you fish lakes that actually have some Bass in them. Unfortunately, i'm in WV and our lakes are P A T H E T I C
I've been watching you guys for about 5 or 6 years. With each and every video I am overwhelmed with your knowledge and with the knowledge you extend to me. You are totally relatable without being patronizing . You relate to the upscale professional fisherman and to a retired budget fishermen like myself. You are the best of the best. Thanks so much
You had me at chatterbait!!! I cannot wait to see more under water footage of trailers. I watch that first video of the trailers every few months a few times. You guys are the best. Thank you for all you do.
I was literally one your website last night reading you chatterbait guide from last year because I'm shopping for a new rod, and bam I go on my lunch break and here you are with the 2024 guide😂, the universe works in mysterious ways🤣🤣
After watching this tutorial, I threw a Z man jackhammer chatter bait for the first time today. I caught Four 4’s Three 5’s and a 6. 23 fish total today fishing all alone in the rain and driving wind. It was absolutely miserable. Best day ever! Thank you so much for the video Matt! I am a true believer in your channel. Can’t wait to start throwing swim baits
Florida man here. Chatterbait is a must have for sure. I spoke with some r&d guys from zman that live locally to me. The coating on the Evo blades not only holds the glitter but its also chip resistant so it makes the base paint layer on longer. World of difference with those black gold red and orange blades.
Amazing video! Very informative on every aspect of fishing chatter baits. Thank you for taking the time to record this detailed video. It helps tremendously.
Love the detail and enthusiasm guys! I was wondering … fire craw orange blade vs black and why? Also hog farmer blow torch vs missle lava craw? Appreciate the expertise!
Best part of all this is the “start up speed” you mention. I’ve used knock offs and you’re exactly right, have to shake it or snap it to get it going. ZMan chargers are the best.
Thank you, Matt, and welcome to Florida. What passes for winter weather down here has held on pretty tenaciously this year, but hopefully things have finally leveled out and you can enjoy a great angling adventure here in the Sunshine State. And wow, just looked at your subscriber numbers: looks like the countdown to 600,000 is well underway. Seems like only yesterday we were celebrating the half-million mark. Congratulations! Good luck to those who are heading out to have a go at the bass today, and I hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday!
I’m pretty sure tackle warehouse has profited millions of dollars just from TacticalBassins videos alone. Thanks guys for fueling and encouraging my addiction to tackle haha, your videos have taught me more than any other source. Watching the new TacticalBassin video is the peak of my day if I’m not fishing lol
Got off work, watched this video and decided to go fish. Caught 11 in 2 hours on a 3/8 oz black and blue original chatterbait with a zako on the back. That bait combo just works here in Tennessee.
Matt I need a pressured water video & the different ways to approach it , living in the heart of NJ it’s non stop I’d be surprised if the lakes I fish were the most pressured in the country!
The jackhammer has been my pride and joy the past few years. It helped me win a club tourney 2 weeks ago by throwing that and a white mini max when the jackhammer bite started to go away. Most of my buddies refuse to throw the stealth and mini max, which is good for me, I’ll keep taking their money 😜
Another amazing rod for the Jackhammer, is the St. Croix Legend Xtreme 7’ MH Fast. The control, sensitivity, and action on that rod is perfect for chatterbaits.
I really like an old school single tail grub on a chatter bait it doesn’t interfere with the hunting action and on heavily pressured fish I feel like it offers a slightly different profile than what most guys are using
Love the crosseyez bank fishing, the TW exclusive custom is my favorite overall because of the value. Wish they had a stealth version of a non Jack hammer. Picked up a couple mini max, excited to try them this year.
Agree on the spunk shad and haven't really looked back since. Another I found is the Beast coast blade runner. It has so much action, like the spunk shad, but they are super tough.
Well by God, it's about time you guys mentioned the cross eyez in one of these bladed jigs videos. I've been fishing that model since it debuted. And it is my primary chatterBait that I throw. And I'm quite glad you guys haven't mentioned it till now because I never worry about them not being in stock
I've been making my own custom chatterbaits for years but as soon as the queens tackle switchblade came out, I haven't bought another type of blade. I absolutely hated using split rings to the standard blades but due to this design, I can just use a jighead with a vertical line tie and it just works. The blade starts spinning immediately
Stroking a chatterbait just like a jig will get you right with a big bag buring the late spring also. The Raid Japan chatterbait works the best for this around wood and mostly rip rap, it has weed guard wires to keep from getting hung as much. Premium hardware and blade to head connect
Great detailed video,we all appreciate your time that you take to put that out there for all of us. Just wanted to give a big thanks to you, god bless and be safe out there.
I never really used them not really confident but past few years been watching you guys I've improved 💯 everything especially locating them but I figured I'd try the chatterbait this year wow fun fun fun thanks guys for the tips and tricks
I noticed that Hog Farmer makes a 3.5 inch spunk shad, i was not aware of that. Have you guys tried that on the mini max? Seems like that could be a great pairing. Thanks for all the awesome bass fishing videos!!
Love your videos, been watching almost everyone for about 3 years. Thank you for not making us pay a membership like alot of guys nowadays. I have a question, do you ever use the 4.5 spunk shad on the mini max?
LOVE your Chatterbait videos! Esp because it’s my top technique for covering water and versatility. You mentioned experimenting new trailers. With all the straight tails coming around - would like to get your feedback on Zman’s Chatterspike? Is it a more durable Spunk Shad? Or just a less effective poser? Can’t wait to hear more from @tacticalbassin!!
I fish a lot of ponds and obviously bluegill is the primary forage source. Because of that, I mostly throw the mini max but I’ve been having an issue with the snaps opening up on me. Is there a beefier snap I can use or am I using too heavy of a rod? I do use the same rod that I use for the jackhammer with the mini max which was a 7’2 mh glass Expride but I recently switched to the Loomis IMX pro chatterbait rod. I have tried changing to a heavier Decoy snap but they are difficult to change and I always feel like I compromise the snap getting it on there. Any suggestions would be helpful because I don’t want to lose a pb because of the snap.
Great video. I definitely need to restock, this video was perfect timing. Man I can't wait to get down there, I'm waiting for my house offer to be accepted. We found a house in Soddy-Daisy, it's only 10-15 minutes from Chickamauga. Maybe I'll see y'all around! Great video Matt.
Went out this morning with the Evo and hog farmer trailer exact colors as you said in the video and was catching bass every cast I made.. had about 4 between 18-22 inches and several other smaller ones.. I don't think I'll ever go out without a chatterbait in the boat
The black and blue mini max with a swimon trailer has become the go to bait between my buddy and I. We've caught so many quality fish with that lure, it's become a joke that whoever throws it first in the day is said to be "cheating."
Good god I’ve had a fun few days with bass Geting on beds here in fl and throw a big blade (gill) over top . I think the big blade might be my favorite and wish I tryed sooner .
Matt - another awesome video from Tactical Bassin -- I see you constantly wrap your set up (rod/reel) line around one or two of your rod guides as you demo a tied-on set up, then go to set it back down on your boat deck -- I am assuming its all about keeping the line tight and not getting crazy while driving down the water -- can you go into some details about this, and other "boat management" tips for those of us that are new ( and maybe some of us who aren't new) to being on the water with multiple rod/reels, with full bait set ups? All tips are appreciated!
My fav color is that b-hite delight and now the hot snakes in the evo but I haven’t thrown it yet still cold here in pa but I’m not a fan of the gold blade wish they left it black or green pumpkin but we’ll see if it pays off
Have you ever used the Strike King rage blade? I've caught some big bass on that bait in southern Illinois. You boys do a great job of explaining everything. Thank you very much.
Levante Braillest, that literally made my head 🤯. Thats the second time you’ve done that with a form of Braillest. I’ve almost always used the expride 7’2 glass. Recently started noticing something was missing when fishing heavier grass with the glass rod. Might’ve just found the solution.
I do Love how you only recommend Z-Mann, keeps my baits hotter than a Jackhammer which account fur less than 25% of my chatterwagon fish yearly. Love the content Gents, even though I chatter a lil different
Love your videos. Been watching for years! Have you ever tested the berkley chigger bug? I pair this on a jackhammer and do really well in Wisconsin on bluegill lakes. Definitely also fish the hog farmer spunk shad as well.
Perfect timing as I just bought a green pumpkin shad Jack hammer. You feel your recommendation of green pumpkin shad will work all around the country ? I was gonna go straight green pumpkin then I remember you same in the past about the shad color
Bretts Blue Gill colored Jackhammer with a Green Pumpkin Delight colored MISSILE Baits Spunkshad and Clearwater Shad colored jackhammer with Blue Gizzard colored Hogfarmer Spunkshad are straight 🔥🔥🔥
They suck. They cost as much as a jackhammer and they don't have the start up speed of a jackhammer which is the most important element of a chatterbait. The new Evo is no joke tho. There's really no difference between it and a jackhammer except price.
@@morganvanschuyver I don't have any issues with their startup speed, but our local rural king sells them for $18.99 a pop! I got a big blade and an evo elite, but no bites yet. Only been a couple days, tho
I agree that yours is the most informative, and fun, fishing channel on RUclips. The shape of the Big Bite Swimon would indicate that it should be rigged with the flappers vertical. Is this correct?
Congratulations Matt on your videos. Besides using it for fishing with bladed jigs, what else can I use the BJR883 for? Half ounce spinnerbaits? Swim jigs? Thank you and greetings from Spain
That green pumpkin/chartruse jackhammer caught me my PB. Put a Green Pumpkin Yamamoto Zako on the back as the trailer. The chatterbait looks like a bluegill/sunfish swimming when it moves in the water. Mainly bc bluegill are darker towards the top of their body and lighter towards the bottom. Will always be in the lineup til the day I die.
Ok so looking for advice. I have work tourney coming up at the end of April. Water stays fairly clear and I imagine it's going to be at least 80. Suggestions on color would be appreciated. I was honestly considering throwing a punch rig, or finesse because their is alot of grass.
for the crosseyes, do you guys replace the snap with something else? a split ring doesnt fit in the blade, and i dont really enjoy running snaps in general. i had a couple of the snaps on the micro and mini bend out on 2-3lb fish, and i couldnt imagine trying to yank a 4lb+ fish out of cover with one. its kind of odd to me theyd choose a snap over the wire thats on regular chatterbaits, especially since the crosseyes is designed for fishing in heavy cover.
Sir! I know Jackhammer is always the top choice. But recently I got a Berkley Slobberknocker. By just one day try out it works not bad. I want to also hear from professional for sure as well. What do you think of it?
Never fails! Every time I watch Tacticalbassin, it gets me fired up to go fishing.. you can hear the passion and excitement in y’all’s voice (especially Matt). Been following you guys for years, and I still get excited to watch your videos.

Nice to have unbiased tips man. You have no clue how much that means to us fans. Thanks for sharing always!
Thanks Tactical Bassin", you guys have NO EQUAL on the web for detailed tips and instructional information. Great one!
Florida man here. Chatterbait is a must have for sure. I spoke with some r&d guys from zman that live locally to me. The coating on the Evo blades not only holds the glitter but its also chip resistant so it makes the base paint layer on longer. World of difference with those black gold red and orange blades.
Thanks, dude I didn't know that.Appreciate it man
Amazing video! Very informative on every aspect of fishing chatter baits. Thank you for taking the time to record this detailed video. It helps tremendously.
Chatter baits are the chick you bring back to mom. ❤
I almost like to think of them like a drug 🤤 can’t get enough of when Shamu hammers that bait
Love the detail and enthusiasm guys! I was wondering … fire craw orange blade vs black and why? Also hog farmer blow torch vs missle lava craw? Appreciate the expertise!
Best part of all this is the “start up speed” you mention. I’ve used knock offs and you’re exactly right, have to shake it or snap it to get it going. ZMan chargers are the best.
Thank you, Matt, and welcome to Florida. What passes for winter weather down here has held on pretty tenaciously this year, but hopefully things have finally leveled out and you can enjoy a great angling adventure here in the Sunshine State. And wow, just looked at your subscriber numbers: looks like the countdown to 600,000 is well underway. Seems like only yesterday we were celebrating the half-million mark. Congratulations! Good luck to those who are heading out to have a go at the bass today, and I hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday!

Most of my buddies refuse to throw the stealth and mini max, which is good for me, I’ll keep taking their money 😜
Stealth blade is a secret weapon 🤫 🔥
The mini Max is incredible! I think your buddies need an IQ test. Lol.
I watched this and placed an order for some spunk shads and chatter baits. Went out yesterday and caught my first 5 pounder. Thanks fellas!
Thank you so much it’s time to buy a whole lot of chatterbaits I really appreciate the knowledge that you guys give us.
Another amazing rod for the Jackhammer, is the St. Croix Legend Xtreme 7’ MH Fast. The control, sensitivity, and action on that rod is perfect for chatterbaits.
Great timing- one of my goals this year is to catch more bass on chatterbaits! Thanks for the links.

Holy moly what a good video that 1 1. 2 straight up looked like a catfish in the net 🥅 that dude was huge

We are in a beautiful time of the year. thank y’all for all the advice brothers. God bless.
Another good rod for bladed jigs is the poison Adrena 6’11” Medium + Great rod and it’s very versatile
Great detailed video,we all appreciate your time that you take to put that out there for all of us. Just wanted to give a big thanks to you, god bless and be safe out there.
I never really used them not really confident but past few years been watching you guys I've improved 💯 everything especially locating them but I figured I'd try the chatterbait this year wow fun fun fun thanks guys for the tips and tricks

That was a incredible break down man..👍👍
after every video fishing lesson , my credit card gets used buying the exact lures and colors , appreciate your work and knowledge professor matt
Love your videos, been watching almost everyone for about 3 years. Thank you for not making us pay a membership like alot of guys nowadays. I have a question, do you ever use the 4.5 spunk shad on the mini max?
It's fun to get creative with the trailers

I caught a lot of big northern pike in Canada 🇨🇦 on chatter baits they work great 👍
The new Metanium DC 2024 looks cool

We need a GrassHammmer version haha but the crosseyez is my favorite
Thanks for the tips on chatter baits
Good god I’ve had a fun few days with bass Geting on beds here in fl and throw a big blade (gill) over top . I think the big blade might be my favorite and wish I tryed sooner .
Would love to see you guys review the NRX+ BJR rod!!!!!

My fav color is that b-hite delight and now the hot snakes in the evo but I haven’t thrown it yet still cold here in pa but I’m not a fan of the gold blade wish they left it black or green pumpkin but we’ll see if it pays off
Evo and the Jackhammer are both worth it. They are worth the money.
Strike king tour grade rage blade is by far my fav and best producer
Thorough and detailed as always
Have you ever used the Strike King rage blade? I've caught some big bass on that bait in southern Illinois. You boys do a great job of explaining everything. Thank you very much.
Thanks For Ur Daily Grinding 🎣💪🏼
Been slaying them on a chatterbait around isolated stumps
Heck yeah first one here! Love to absorb all this knowledge!
Levante Braillest, that literally made my head 🤯. Thats the second time you’ve done that with a form of Braillest. I’ve almost always used the expride 7’2 glass. Recently started noticing something was missing when fishing heavier grass with the glass rod. Might’ve just found the solution.

try a keitech shad impact on the back of a mini max
On the mini max I love the ZMan hula stick
I've been doing very well on the chatterbait so far!!
How you feel about the evergreen combat stick the jackhammer rod?
Love your videos. Been watching for years! Have you ever tested the berkley chigger bug? I pair this on a jackhammer and do really well in Wisconsin on bluegill lakes. Definitely also fish the hog farmer spunk shad as well.
Have you tried the 3.5” spunk shad on the mini max? I bought some for mid strolling but plan on trying it on the mini too.
@matt do you run that paddle tail zako like you hook up the old kietechs upside down ? Or do they actually run good on the bladed jiggy??
What line would you recommend for the zodias 6'10 / Curado 70 hg combo? Thanks for the video you got me encouraged to get out there today!
Hey Matt, ever try " the Fogy " Chatterbait? Love them.
Perfect timing as I just bought a green pumpkin shad Jack hammer.
You feel your recommendation of green pumpkin shad will work all around the country ?
I was gonna go straight green pumpkin then I remember you same in the past about the shad color
👏👏👏thank you Matt,awesome job ❤
Bretts Blue Gill colored Jackhammer with a Green Pumpkin Delight colored MISSILE Baits Spunkshad and Clearwater Shad colored jackhammer with Blue Gizzard colored Hogfarmer Spunkshad are straight 🔥🔥🔥
Thoughts on the Thunder Cricket?
They suck. They cost as much as a jackhammer and they don't have the start up speed of a jackhammer which is the most important element of a chatterbait. The new Evo is no joke tho. There's really no difference between it and a jackhammer except price.

Yes the spunk shad on the chatter bait works even from the bank
I’ve never clicked on a video so fast. 👊🔥
I agree that yours is the most informative, and fun, fishing channel on RUclips. The shape of the Big Bite Swimon would indicate that it should be rigged with the flappers vertical. Is this correct?

I believe the color way is called Bhite Delight. Only reason I came across this chatterbait is bc of Matt. So thank you 👍🏼
are you guys going to try the crush city mayor & free loader as chatter bait trailers??
If I wanted to fish the Spunk Shad alone, not as a trailor, how would you rig it? Thank you sir!
I love CHATTERBAIT
Ok so looking for advice. I have work tourney coming up at the end of April. Water stays fairly clear and I imagine it's going to be at least 80. Suggestions on color would be appreciated. I was honestly considering throwing a punch rig, or finesse because their is alot of grass.
Just wondering if a spunk shad 4.5 would work good on a spinner bait?
What brand are those clear bags your trailers are in?
What box do you recommend for chatterbait storage
Was wondering if you've tried the Rapala freeloader and what you think
Making the same face when that 11 pounder came out of the net. 😮
This is what I was lookin for I just bought a jack hammer yesterday
Just 1? Better go buy a couple more, they like to get snagged 😅
Can you cut the boot off a Keitech and have it work like spunk shad or is the spunk shad quite a bit different
Great info
@Matt, since you're talking about Chatterbaits. What do you think of Berkleys Slobber Knocker chatterbait?
for the crosseyes, do you guys replace the snap with something else? a split ring doesnt fit in the blade, and i dont really enjoy running snaps in general. i had a couple of the snaps on the micro and mini bend out on 2-3lb fish, and i couldnt imagine trying to yank a 4lb+ fish out of cover with one. its kind of odd to me theyd choose a snap over the wire thats on regular chatterbaits, especially since the crosseyes is designed for fishing in heavy cover.

I really like the Evo
