There's a reason TW can't keep this bait in stock, they flat out catch fish. People buy yellow magics and ricos when they could buy a pop-r.

Go dig some change out of your couch and try one. wink

Guys, other companies have been making pretty much the same design for a year now... it was stumbled onto tinkering with how to build a vibrating jig that didn't infringe on the ZMan patent for the original chatterbait. I've been fishing one nearly just like this $20 one since Feb of '16 and the cost is 1/3rd of what Zman is ripping people off for right now. It skips under docks like a ball head jig, has an insane hunting action, and is made of top quality components... do some looking around and you can find many options out there as good or better than anything ZMan put on the shelf.

I refuse to fish chatter baits until they reach $40+

I was a sucker and bought one for 20 bucks and i have to say it is a great lure and has produced several nice fish in only 2 outings.

All I ever catch with a chatterbait are stumps. I don't know why I seem to have such bad luck with them. I know they work, they just don't work for me.

ask yourself will a $20 bait help me catch more and bigger fish. I am betting it won't.
but to each his own.
