Chart / Black Xcite XB-1 rattling When do you decide on rattling vs non? I usually fish the silent mainly because I was told to by people more experienced than me. Just curious what conditions you use the rattle vs non? I like either sexy shad or the chanteuse/black (dirty water).

8 lizard one of my most productive baits ever
Agreed, an 8" lizard is what I fish most often. However, when the bite slows down I seem to have better luck with a 10" worm low and slow. If I find them more shallow, do the same with a senko.

If it's sunny, 10' ribbon tail worm parallel to the original shoreline.
If it's overcast, chatterbait. Can you post a pic of that 10 foot worm for us? ![roflmao roflmao](/forums/images/graemlins/default/roflmao.gif)

I have caught MANY fish on a rattling CB. I prefer to throw a Rat-l--trap style bait to catch fish with. Nothing wrong with a worm, if you want to go that way, but I like to try to catch more active fish first, then move onto a rattling jig or rattling Texas rigged worm/lizards/fluke. Hope this helps. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.

Many have already said it, but you really cant go wrong with a quality chatterbait. That vibration really helps them find it, and you can cover a lot of water with it. Great all around bait, in my opinion.

Aren't you concerned you could deep hook the bass and then accidentally kill one? ![bolt bolt](/forums/images/graemlins/default/bolt.gif)
