I have 2 like that. I'm going with a bigger snap and hope it doesn't hurt the action.

So, it looks like the$6.99 chatterbait custom has a better snap than the evergreen!

I am learning to do the twisted wire tie. Just got to find better tools to make the twist. I am also eliminating the split ring. No more snaps or split rings coming soon. Keep watching; Prototypes available.

[quote=fouzman]Did you land the fish? $20 bucks is a small price to pay for a DD. No, he jumped off at the boat. Wasn't a giant, probably 9ish. [/quote ] Only 9...not a giant lol it is for us northern strain fellas. Keep at it and find that upper teener.

Have you tried using Mustad Fastach Clip? Tackle Warehouse uses #2 on their Z Man Chatterbait Custom model. I bought some of the clips to replace on my originals. it's a job to get them on the blade. Not sure how it would change the action of the Jackhammer.

We had a good day considering the northeast wind blew hard from 10 AM until dark. We landed 20 fish but mostly males from 1-4 pounds. My partner had this 9.0 and we had two more 7 pounders but the trip fell a little short from what we had hoped for from CB.

Looks like something a grinnell would do to a nice bait.
