I’ve caught more fish on the Thunder Cricket than any other vibrating jig. The Berkley Slobberknocker is quickly becoming my second favorite. The spunk shad has been my favorite trailer and the Big Bites Kamikaze is my second favorite trailer.
Thanks for the video. I’ll definitely remember the part about feeling the blade stop.
4:40 thats facts, im 14 so I dont have 15$ to spend on a lure that I could very easily lose, I just use normal 6 dollar chatterbaits and I hate losing them even at their price point.
Ill be 30 this year and dont want to lose nothing.
Nothing wrong with fishing on a budget!
really good video. Quality communication by this guy. I didn't have any questions at the end like I typically do w/ these gear videos. Good angle on the retrieve
Thank you!
Killer video. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Great stuff! Love the Zako but I like the Hog Farmer/Missile Baits spunk shad even more!
Yeah they're awesome, Blade Minnow from Strike King also good, as is the Komodo from Gambler. If you're hung up on just just 1 trailer thats probably not a good idea with a chatterbait.
Great advice for learning a lure/technique- keep it simple.
Thanks!
0:35 that is literally me. Got the jackhammer special rod, and it goes EVERYWHERE with me. How have I never seen this video!! Lol
5:52 the zman David Walker crosseyes chatterbait is a GREAT bait to use also. Especially with those weedless arms on it. Its way better around cover than the jackhammer.
6:47 that thundercricket is amazing. Different vibration. Lot more subtle. Don’t sleep on it.
Another great video Nathan. Thank you.
Thank you!
The slobber knockers r good too
Another good one, thanks for the information. I fish the Jack/Cricket and Mini Max....
Thank you!
Caught two back to back on a green pumpkin seed chatterbait with a green pumpkin seed horny toad as a trailer. first one was 7.14lbs and the second one was 6.04lbs. I always have a chatterbait tied on.
Nice!
Good stuff! I recently discovered the effectiveness of the chatter bait and is now my go to search bait in any season. Question for you, with your Zako trailer. Are you using the 3" or the 4" for your 1/2oz and for the 3/8oz? Or same size for both? Appreciate your content!
Great stuff bro!
Thanks!
Ya naild it!
very good video, I will have to try your rod recommendation
Good luck!
Thanks for the info, i havent had much confidence in chatterbaits personally, but i want to have confidence in it. Im gonna keep throwing it every now and then.
Good luck!
I've had a lot of success with the Thunder Cricket.I am trying the Project Z this year because if the cost.I hope it works out
Good luck!
I caught my 2nd biggest bass on a white n chartreuse thunder Crickett. 6lb
Hi Nathan do you use the 3” or 4” Zako?
Your reel handle looks like it came off of a hatch in a submarine. I might have to look into that. It looks comfortable.
LOVE the chatterbait custom. More than the jackhammer tbh. Only downside is the silicone skirt tie but that’s not a huge deal to me
That’s a great one too!
Nice bass. What’s your thoughts on the Dobyns 706cb-not the glass one? I been eye balling it for some time for chatters and spinnerbaits. The trailer I like is the big bite kamakaze swimon. Thanks for sharing-imma take a look at that icon too!
I’m sure it could work too!
Great video. Been using jackhammer stealth blade that has gotten me big fish 7.20lb and 6.8. Even had a 48 fish day on it.
Awesome!
I catch more fish on the $5 Walmart chatterbait with the black blade then the $20 jackhammer that sits in my tackle box can’t catch nothing with it
My Walmart doesn't have Ozark trail chatterdonks. It has the spinnerbaits which are OK for the $. Just buy extra for when you cast the blades off the end. Not a great twist. And I'm not working g on a $1 lure
I’m not talking about Ozark trails Walmart sells z-man’s for $4.99
@heckgo193 their spinner baits work until you cast off the blade where it's half ass tied on. But yeah, I buy everything I can from Wal mart. Half the price of bass pro and the likes. Even the strike king stuff and like you said, the chatterbaits. Wish they carried a better stock of lines but I get by on power pro and big game. Wally world for the win
How would you catch anything with something that sits in your tackle box? You have to put it in the water to catch a fish...
@@xDx0xUxGx and hes talking about wal marts z man collection. You know, the same people that make the jackhammer. They chatter much easier than the regular z man chatterbaits. I imagine e you know that though.
And thunder crickets r good too
Good info, no BS.
Thanks!
Great information, what size of Zako do you prefer?
The 4 inch!
Shorter rod works better. You can cast more accurately around brush, docks, etc. 15 lb is fine, especially for 3/8,1/2 oz..
i really like the 6th sense bongo as a trailer.
They are good too!
Thoughts on the 7.4 speed vs the 6.2speed Shimanos for the chatterbait? Is it preference to reeling faster or slower? Thoughts on the true difference of amount of line per handle turn.
I like the slower reel for Cranks, Spinnerbaits, and vibrating jig. Small details and preferences for sure. Great video NQ!
I use the 7.4 so I can burn it if needed but just reel slower!
I like the Berkley Power Stinger as a trailer
That works too!
Like the elite suggestion. The blade minnow by strike king is very similar to the zako. I use both. Btw, while sitting, was that a donut on a plate? Thanks.
It was a sandwich! It was lunch time
@@nathanquincefishing7122 I get it, the plate is a nice touch.
Nathan, what size graphs do you have at the consel?
12 inch!
Great video! A lot of good advice!! When you fish the rivers in PA do you still use the Jackhammer or the Mimi-Max? I heard the Mini-Max is better in the river?? If so you downsize to 3/8 oz or 1/4 oz & what rod would you use? Stay Safe & God Bless!!
I use the mini max on just a 7 foot medium heavy!
@@nathanquincefishing7122 Thanks for the feedback!!! Much appreciated!!!👍🤠
What made you change the Cashion rod from the Dobyns rod from one of your previous videos? I'm about to make a purchase of either the Cashion or the Dobyns Glass rod. Where you have used both which do you recommend and why?
I have just used my cashion for a week straight at the Potomac and as much as I loved the dobyns I love this one even more. Not just because I work with them now it’s half the weight cause no glass but it has the backbone to rip from the grass but still keep fish on. I lost one fish in 6 days of fishing it
What are the guides like on that Cashion rod can you run braid to leader or are they micro guides?
They are micro guides
@@nathanquincefishing7122 😡Hate micro guides but thanks for the reply
I think your one of the most skilled talkers
Thank you!
Anyone know what color jackhammer would be best for Florida panhandle area
Gold or green pumpkin
What color Zako was that in the video?
Green pumpkin
Build your own or find a local guy that does. 16$ for a jig head, a skirt, and 5 cents of sheet metal is a straight tip off. I have a local guy and his baits kill the bass. Try a rage frog for a trailer as well. It will be big bass only though.
try the zako on a spinner bait as well
Will do!
The most expensive vibrating jig I've used is a thunder cricket and I fish the original chatter bait all the time and work's great for me because in my opinion no one throws it anymore and the fish don't hear the vibration from the original much and work's in my favor 99% of the time I fish it
I try to use obscure and out of fashion baits when I can just to show the fish something different. Last year I pulled out some of the original Sluggo's with gold flake and did really well with them.
@@tanker335 I like your style! 🎣
@@lannyseals2084 I'm going to give the Pop-R a go this year. I don't see anyone using them anymore. Maybe the good old Jitterbug too.
@@tanker335 very cool! I just did a basement and garage clean out last week and found an old tackle box that had like 5 of the older style hula poppers and a few jitter bug's and can't wait to get them cleaned up and get them out on the water! Good luck out there and stay safe my friend!!
@@lannyseals2084 You too friend. I'll be right over to help you with your garage. Of course I have no idea what happened to your tacklebox. 😀
I find the 7+ gear ratio reels are too quick for bladed jigs. The bait rides up too quickly. I know people catch them on high speed reels, and people say well you can slow down your retrieve, but it doesnt really work like that.
6.1,6.2, 6.3, 6.4, all perfect for bladed jigs
I’ve had better luck with the thunder cricket in clearer water not sure why but I do
Had a chance to buy that Icon Chatterbait rod for $150, really wish I would have , ended up buying a St Croix Victory rip and chatter for $140, not sure if I like it yet
It’s a sweet rod!
The original is just as good as any .. maybe not components wise.. but for $5-$6.. it works. In early spring I’ve caught multiple 25-30lb bags in literally 30 mins ( when I get on them) with a green pumpkin original- I don’t throw them anymore since I have a vast collection of higher end vibrating jigs- but you can’t say “ don’t use the original “ it’s a great lure dude- especially to those on a budget, you make it sound like they can’t catch them on a original. My first ever 30lb bag came on a 1/2oz original on a spinning rod with a pflueger trion 5.2.1 spinning reel, when I didn’t have other rods and combos like I do now…just saying.. if presented- they’ll eat it no matter the gear
Never understood why everyone that is right handed cast with right then switch the rod to the left hand and retrieve with the right, just buy a left hand retrieve. Use your right arm to pull and set the hook, reeling in the lure doesn't require any force.
No clue I’ve just always been that way
@@nathanquincefishing7122 I first learned to fish on a spinning reel. The crank was always on the left. Im right handed. I never switched to a right handed bait caster even after going all in on a bait caster. It sucked for the longest time because you could ONLY find one gear ratio in a lefty and that was if you special ordered it. Other than just feeling awkward for a bit, there is almost no reason to not try it these days. (Other than having to buy 15 more reels...lol)
It's about power and efficiency. The majority of the time you're casting towards the shore, off the right side of the boat to targets and mostly to the left which means you're bringing the bait in L to R. In order to rip a chatterb (or other moving baits) thru weeds or rip weeds off, palming the reel with your left hand and tucking the butt of the rod between your left arm and side and yanking the rod hard to the right is the fastest, most powerful, and most efficient way to do this and you can't do it at all with a LH retrieve reel.
Why use a Zako over a z man razor shadz?
If you leave the razor Shad on it will melt to the skirt
That and it just performs better on the bait!
@@nathanquincefishing7122 yeah I actually just noticed that now that it's getting hotter out... worked great down here during the late winter early spring. Southeast Georgia. 🤙
3inch or 4inch for the zako ?
4 inch
You do not know what you’re missing by not messing with the 1-1/4 ounce jackhammer. It is a 30 lb limit getter in the fall on the ledges
Lake fork tackle’s live magic Shad the original and best chatter bait trailer. Used the Zako’s not better and cost more. Used the original not the knock off.
What’s wrong with the Z-man original? I’ve never had an issue with them. Are they as good as the jackhammer? No, but for people who can’t bring themselves to spend $17 on a lure that can easily be lost, I’ve always found them to be a good option.
I’ve also found times where a Zako trailer (or any other swim bait trailer) just doesn’t seem to work but you toss on a craw trailer and BAM! Different outcome.
The components aren’t as good. I like the elites even for a few dollars more
@@nathanquincefishing7122 well I agree, and you get what you pay for obviously and even if they’d come down to around $10 on the jackhammers I’d consider them “worth it” but at $15 to $17, unless you are tournament fishing professionally, I’d stick with the $6 original. The differences in total catches would be minimal.
I can’t argue that the jackhammer isn’t better. It is. No question. My point is that the difference in productivity vs the cost isn’t large enough to warrant the price difference for your “average fisherman”. But if money is no object, by all means go for the jackhammer. It’s absolutely a better quality bait that will catch you a few more fish on an average day.
Change the line clip on those originals and it improves it a lot. Thunder Cricket is the go to for us poor folks
But, you can only get a 1/4 ounce Chatterbait in the original.
Or the mini max
Ham and cheese?
I'm convinced bladed jigs don't catch fish. Anyone that says otherwise is a paid spokesperson by "big bait". 😂
Nice fish but y let him flop all over the carpet?
I truly didn’t realize how big it was until I was already lifting it I usually don’t do that
I must be hungry. I keep staring at your sandwich.
It would be REALLY great to see more guys practicing better fish handling practices. This letting the fish flop around on your deck/carpet is very detrimental to the fishes health. It irks me that so many people do it these days, like boat flipping is cool. People should be better ambassadors of the sport and fish care.
I truthfully didn’t realize how big that fish was until I had it in the air I usually don’t do that
