Chatterbait MUST know Tricks, Tips, & Secrets! | Ike in the Shop

I've been fishing them with a D Bomb as a trailer. Cut about a 1/4" off and it fits perfect. Having better luck that a single tail trailer.

I bet your wife and family have to wear earplugs, LOL 🤣

Chatterbait isn’t one of the best lures created. I’ve spent hours fishing with it at my local pond and have never even gotten a single bite. Then I tied on a jig or a swimbait and start catching fish. I wasted $$ on the chatterbait. I was suckered into the hype. It must work at some lakes for some people. It just doesn’t work where I fish. It has been a giant disappointment

Why. Why are you yelling lol

Don’t use the Molix lover anymore?

Thanks Mike for showing me otherways to fish chatter baits.god bless you and tight lines

One thing to never forget is the chatterbait blade after catching a few fish it makes cuts on your line so don't forget to check your line and retie .

Best chatterbait video ever

Amazing knowledge transfer, Thank You

How well does a chatterbait fish with no skirt at all? Ive tried it and noticed it hunts real well but havent caught anything on it yet.

Your shop videos are exactly why I subscribed! Signed up for my first kayak tournament in a couple weeks and loving the knowledge you share!

Awsome! Love the show. You ever doe anything up in mass

I took all my Chatterbait Elites and changed where the bend was in the blade because I noticed that the only difference in the Jackhammer and the Elite blade was where the bend was, the Jackhammer has a bend closer to the top of the blade so when I did that to my Chatterbait Elites I noticed that the Elite Chatterbaits started vibrating just as fast as the Jackhammer! It’s amazing how it changed the startup of that blade!

The Spunk Shad is awesome trailer!

Madhatter wit da Chatter!!!

Man I never thought about using a medium power rod! I’ve always use a 7’2” Medium heavy! Makes sense though

Will these tips also work on swim jigs?

Great tips Ike. Will try this on Bull Shoals this winter.

Thanks for all the info.

What are your thoughts regarding blade color and water clarity?

Hey Mike great stuff as usual. Stupid question of the day: do they have to be fished with a trailer?

I like the pliers on the string. You now if you put it down you’ll never see them again 😂😂

I use a Craw style trailer a ton, here in the north it gets bits!

I just want to thank you for passing your knowledge off to us. Your video's give me so much more information to add to my way of fishing.

Take a bite out of it man haha. I tend to use a fluke when the fishing gets tough in that clear wata. I've never tried the skirt ordeal ima have to try it if it makes it dart. I along with others appreciate it man !!

I love all your “In the Shop” vids. This one was super informative as I had no idea I could modify or alter the action by bending the blade or thinning the skirt. Great stuff. Can’t wait to try. I’m wondering, would you still lessen the vibration in cold water if it’s super dirty? Thanks for a great channel. Appreciate all you do.

IKE you really hit a home run !! This is the best info I've seen!! Just recently went fishing here in Kansas water temperature was 39 to 43. The only way I caught fish was with the Slobberknocker. I hadn't thought of turning the craw style bait side way will definitely try it. Thank you so much for sharing.

Great info

I use them on redfish in dirty water they crush them. Flounder are fond of them too.

I've never thrown chatterbaits I'll definitely save this video, thanks!

Great stuff! Thanks for the video and I looking forward to diving into more of your vids! Just subbed!

Good stuff homie 💪

Still trying to catch my first bass on a chatterbait 😉 so far, the bass in my area have shied away from chatterbaits

MAN…those tips are killer. Exactly the type of stuff I’ve been looking for as I’m just getting into chatterbaits

I fish at night a lot and 90% of the time I'm throwing a 3/8 black and blue Chatterbait. 7 foot MH with an 8.1:1 reel because I find that a lot of times they grab it and start running at me and I need to pick up line. My favorite rig to throw by far.

Ike's medium action slow power moderate action reel has me cracking up lol. 🤣 must be a jersey boy talk.. just kidding Ike. I can't say anything cause you could outfish me any day. Use whatever vocabulary you want cause you're IKE!

I'd like to know who came up with the name slobberknocker? It's quite the unique name.

Great video. I want to see you catching fish with neko rig

Love the video God bless be safe keep fishing

Mike, when you thinned the skirt, it looked like it was all taken from the outer portion of the skirt - is that correct?
Question. I like to use the rod to impart some erratic action, a jerk now and then and withe the reel to slower it down now and then. with the exception of dirty water, I've found a more constant retrieve works.
Thx Mike I enjoy your shop talk.

Great video as always, a lot of good info

Folks at home, folks at home! 🤙🏻

I caught one chain pickerel on a black and blue chatter bait in June. Our smallmouth has ended yesterday November 30 here in New Brunswick Canada

Good stuff brother 😎🤙🏽

Best chatter bait mod vid .😊

Great tips keep them coming loving it

Great video Mike. The crawdad trick really makes alot of sense. Thanks

I catch way more fish on a spinner bait than a chatter

SlobberKnocker is #1
