One of my favorite ways to catch a bass is on a bladed jig. Ever since chatter baits have come out, I have caught a ton of bass on them, and I have caught some giants.
The new chatterbait minimax is power and finesse combined to be a killer bass lure!
BassFishingHQ is dedicated to teaching people how to catch more and bigger bass. I will go over different bass fishing tips & techniques that will put more fish in the boat or on the shore. Whether you are just starting out or a seasoned tournament angler, my goal is to help you catch more bass.

Man, your content is consistently excellent. I have learned a ton from your videos. Thanks so much!
Thanks for the kind words! It means a kot
Great video.....love how you superimposed the graphics onto the scene to show what you were doing with the retrieve. Very helpful to visualize.
Really enjoy your videos. Your passion for fishing really comes through. I have learned a ton watching you . Thank you
Great video. Thank you for going into detail of what you were seeing under the water and where exactly you were tossing your bait and where you were bringing it through on your retrieve. Great detail. Excellent video. I have spent hours fishing a bladed bait including the Mini-max. I have never caught a fish on a bladed bait. Very frustrating. I’ve watched hours of videos on technique. Still no fish. I was about to throw my bladed baits in the garbage, but maybe I’ll give them another chance. Keep up the great work.
I use my mini max more now than I do my other chatterbaits. Something about it just seems to get me more bites. Love the content man appreciate you making these videos for us
It’s a dynamite bait! Thanks for watching
Because it isn't used as much, fish aren't accustomed to it.
@@judweaver3635 probably right. I’ve got to where I use it a lot now
I just have minimaxes cause i fish ponds in md where the bass arent very big, but despite that, the minimax has produced so many 2.5-3.5 lbers for me recently
This has quickly become my go to chatterbait now here in the Midwest. One trailer I’ve found to do insanely well here is the zman split tail trailer that they made for spinnerbaits. Makes it look just like a small minnow which has been crushing them this fall even caught 12 in a row at one point with that setup.
Always learn something new about techniques or equipment from your videos. Your “keep it simple” delivery make your messages easy to comprehend also. Keep it going! Have a great fall season. 🎃
You talked me into trying it, and I did catch a couple on it last night. Thanks for the tip.
I'm liking the on the water tips! Super good tips as always!
I could not agree more!! Places I can’t get a sniff with a jackhammer and they munch this thing! I’ve been loving the black blue 1/2oz with a blue and chartreuse Keitech. That and the good old menace fit it perfectly. It’s been a great summer with them so far! I expect it to get even better!
Awesome video Tyler! I just bought 2 of them. Have not used them yet. Going out tomorrow morning to practice for a tournament. Going to try them out. Thanks for the awsome content. Tight lines bro 👍
So I spent all last Sunday with a white(not sure of the official color scheme) mini max in my hand. It was the ONLY lure I threw all day. I gotta say… it’s a fun lure to catch fish on AND it caught me some really nice bass. Best way I found to catch them. Cast out, reel about 5-6 feet at a medium retrieve, and pop the rod 1, 2, or 3 times. Varying the pop count of course. The fish were hitting it on the fall and just running away with it. It was a blast. Thanks for the tips, tricks, and advice Tyler!!
Great video, very informative!
I've fished the 1/4 Oz, Chatterbait mini for a long time with a Kietech easy shiner. I've caught bunches of fish on it. That was my finesse Chatterbait. Guess the minimax is the next natural progression for me to keep it down and fish it a little quicker. But I do like fishing slow.
Tyler great video 📹 Thank you for sharing 👍
Thanks Tyler, I am on that mini max also. Trailer wise I use cut trick and speed worms. I want to help your fishing a little. Stay away from back hand hook sets you need some work on it I know because I need work on mine. I don't have a quick snap set. Watch your video again you will see it too.
Excellent review. I have noted Chatterbait bites have dropped off. Looking forward to Mini Max and am intrigued about Berkley's new bladed jig
Im going to have to try that caffeine shad trailer…looks very effective thank you for the very informative video.
Thanks for watching
Man awesome video! I've been trying this setup and no but knew I was fishing wrong.
Oh and also seeking my 1st BASS! Small or large. Got the rock bass but man the others I have not been able to find nor get. Pike for me I guess 😄 🤣
Love the mini max been killing them all year on it with a little dipper trailer!!
So deadly
Tyler- I started using minimax in that Exact color this past spring. Up river on Lanier - prespawn beauty! 7.5lb LM , baby !!
Curious how the mini max will work in the Florida canals and ponds. Love their action , may match it up with the rainbow shad from zoom
Excellent video , do you change out the clip on the mini chatterbait?
i just caught my pb small mouth on a white mini max as well as consistantly catch 3-4 lb smallies awesome little bait that is usually always tied on
I’ve basically stopped throwing all of my other chatterbaits. The mini-max has been amazing for me. New small Zako trailer works nice, so does smaller SwimOn.
Like the mini max myself it a great little bladed jig. Fish have seen so many bigger bladed and profile bladed jigs in some places they just don't hit them as much anymore.
I used your link and bought the minimax chatter bait and I absolutely crushed them on my local river today. 13 bass in all. A mix of largemouth and smallmouth with a 2 lb smallie. I agree with you. The minimax is the best chatterbait I fished.
Great video. Very interesting.
Great video, I just ordered some of those new slobber knocker chatterbaits. Can't wait to give them a try
I just picked up a few too ;)
@@BassFishingHQ They looked awesome. I have had good luck on Chatterbaits down here
@@BassFishingHQ i sent you a DM on Instagram
I love the mini max! I use a trick worm tail as a trailer
Gotta say I appreciate your hookset style not being so exaggerated compared to others. Gotta find me a mini max in Canada to try out for sure.
Ty, have you tried the slobberknocker? Fishing Berlin lake this week on a tournament
Couldn't agree more, I fish a lake with no grass but they used to smoke chatterbaits, then it became only in the springtime and can hardly buy a bite on in the summer. I have a few minimax but have never thrown them
Ponds are worse the bass avoid the chatterbaits after they get caught a few times. Usually in the spring they had a winter of not seeing or hearing them.
Great vid Tyler! I want to learn about a 'secret' lure.
Dagum it , now I’ve gotta buy some of these !!! Love a good Chatterbait bite
I'm new to chatterbaits and have an original one in white and chartreuse. I haven't caught a thing with it, yet. The smaller blade makes sense to me, the original seems really aggressive. It might be better for windy days or muddy water. The smaller one makes sense for cleaner water or calmer days. I think I'll try the smaller one. I'm more of a saltwater guy and I wonder how chatterbaits will do there. Looks like a good redfish lure, and it should catch snook and maybe cobia. I need to find out.
I’ve been doing really well with the thunder cricket
I use z-man chatter bait without trailer. First time I used a black blue chatter bait I caught a chain pickerel on it back in early July
Got some tonight gonna try the feather method you got 🔥
I catch so many more fish of all sizes on the mini-max up north. Smallmouth, Largemouth, Pike, Muskies. Way more bites than the other models.
It really is a great bait. I have caught a lot of other species on them too
@@BassFishingHQ black and blue with white or blue Zman RaZor shad, killer.
I’ve just started with the mini max trying to match the small hatch.
Hey nice vid what do you think is the best chatter bait now
How do you maneuver your rod to keep a fish pinned on light fishing rods? Some people say keep your rod high and tension on. Some people say keep your rod down and maybe even in the water to keep the fish from jumping. I’m usually parallel casting the bank to either my left or right and most of catches get hooked 20 - 30 feet to either side of me. I know every component of your combo makes a difference including hook , line, rod action, but I’m just curious about the best technique for how to hold a rod and fight the fish
I am not Tyler but I do keep my rod low after hook set until the bass is close to the boat and a little less spunky.
what length and power rod do you use
Another great video
Loving these videos.... The information is exceptional But, why does no one talk about the what weight to use and when/why?
Keep feathering’ it brother.
Can you use full sized trailers? Also whats the weight to use for the mini max?
The new big blade is even better!
It was a good one 👊😎
Feathering it brother just like lord fedsmoker 👌
What ounce? what plastic do you have on the hook? And which colors?
"Downsize after Sunrise" that's how I roll ....unless their on and the Bubba baits r Workin ! Great channel brother. Is that accent from Long Island ?
I fish from bank. Wts a good weight for these in the shallows ?
What is the difference between the zman mini or mini max?
Good as usual
I use a smaller zoom fluke on it and they hammer it
Good small bladed jig. I'm on the fence on getting some or just go with a 1/4 oz
I really like the 3/8oz. I can cast it just like I would a regular jackhammer but yet it has that more subtle action and size
The mini max is completely different vibe because of the smaller blade. You can still throw a 3/8oz mini max and it will target different fish than the 1/4oz standard chatterbait.
Been fishing this for years aka the the Mini & Micro chatter bait. Now just a bigger hook and $5 more. P.S. love your channel.
Don't they have big blades?
See SO has the chatter bait mini max on sale but can anyone tell me if the chatter bait mini is the same as the mini max???
Just bought 4 mini max today. Fishing indian lake ohio. It's tough here as I'm sure you know.
What makes this much different than the regular mini?
It’s a fantastic bait I’ve been tearing them up on Champlain.
You basically turned that caffeine shad into a dream shot, which is also an excellent trailer.
What's the difference between the mini and the mini max? I see the mini only comes in 1/4 and the max also comes in 3/8 and 1/2... so need the max if need heavier weight. I'm a pond/bank guy, would a 1/4 oz mini serve same purpose for half the price?
Different blade size. Mini max has a little blade.
@@kevinbeaudean704 so what's a mini then, 1/4 size with same blade as the "original" chatterbait? Is the hook the same on mini and mini max, any idea?
Got em and truly got bit when I couldn't get bit on anything else. I was hopping it off the bottom and got nailed.
That’s a deadly technique
I like the comparison to the crank bait. Better yet is the landing %. I’d rather jack them with a single hook
cant wait to get ahold of that slobberknocker
Yea I just got a few. Excited to give them a try
What’s the best chatter bait that looks like a crappie
Excellent
Any ZMan for me, but especially the minimax are great
What weight do you prefer?
Rage Blade still knocks the snot out of 'em for all the years I've used 'em...
Yes i love them just got a 7 pound large mouth on one
Pike have been destroying my chatterbait this year on my local lake with a handful of bass on it. So if there's any pike anglers, or muskie I'm sure, chatterbait may be a way to go.
Do you ever take fans fishing? Put me on that list! Just subscribed and hit that bell
The Mini Max is ok at best, but I think they're missing a huge opportunity.
Zman should have made a Jackhammer Jr. Same size/weights as the Mini Max, but all of the colors/components from the Jackhammer.
They should also transfer all of the Jackhammer colors to the Stealth Blade and add a 1/4oz option.
Maybe in your lakes but not in mine least not the three lakes I do 70% of my bass fishing in
Best chatterbait for me has been the first one I tried the Enticer Chatterbaits by Bass Pro
Chartreuse and white or blue gill colors May till fall and Blk/blue sparkle flake in pre spawn out fished both the Zman and Slobberknocker by over a 5:1 ratio
Pays to experiment
What the best reel speed to use 6.5:1 or 7.3:1 for chatter bait
I personally like something in the 7 range
@@BassFishingHQ Thank you. My Quantum smoke S3 baitcaster has 7.3:1. The 6.5:1 in a Daiwa baitcaster. Have a good night
To me it's seasonal. Cold slow hot fast when it comes to chatterbaits.
@@kevinbeaudean704 Thank you. I am a riverbank fisherman. Rivers little colder than a lake. I will use my slower reel with the 6.5:1
Nothing like talking up a bait and then wackin em. Nice 👍
i cant agree more with the minimax; i literally get about 5X more bites with it than a regular chatterbait.
Every time he hooks a fish “golley” “oh my god”
The Picasso Circuit blade is also another absolutely ridiculous bladed jig.
I’ve never had success with chatter baits
Thank God, I thought this was going to be a Berkley "slobberknockoffer" video.
Haven’t used that one enough yet to know it’s capabilities
My favorite is the one I pour. :)
The mini is awesome too!
I’ll take one that you pour!! :)
Gollyyyyyy 😂
Absolutely love the mini max. Fished a tournament last week and destroyed them with it. Broke it off unfortunately. Tied a jack hammer on and could not get another bite with a bladed jig. And living in SW Ohio smaller profile gets em good
Dude a lot of guys wouldnt think the difference would be that great until you experience something like that!
Hey, the wife can't get mad if I got her a couple too.....
I wish they made a weed less version of the mini max
Say it... Like a blade bait!
Do you really like the ark rods with the bruin combos or are you just getting paid out the ass to catch fish?
I like both, but I just never saw a person go hardcore endorsing these brands
The best chatterbait for me is a spinnerbait!
I’ve went back to throwing spinner baits over the last few years.
@@jeremyduncan9165 it’s hard to be them in my opinion.
Shhhhhhh 🤫 that'll be our little secret lol
Dag gummit
What ?
I disagree, but right on.
Shhhh
Go get some 6th sense Juggles
Google says chaterbate is something way different than what you have. Just saying.
i take the blades off all my chatterbaits like randy blukkake says. way more bites.
So a jig? Lol
Yeah, he's definitely an umm , I haven't seen any new videos but anyway as others have said , It's a jig with a blade, remove the blade and you get, yep they're right!
That is not the best !!!! I use Delta is a lot better
