- Come underwater and watch how these different trailers move in the water, what their profiles look like, and pick your favorites! With 19 Trailers in 4 different profile categories, you're about to understand what makes one bait better than another! Today we're answering all the questions about chatterbaits! Which trailers work the best? Which ones are hype? Why do some baits get bit one day but not the next? Let's Go!
This video was a huge undertaking but was worth every second. Being able to see these different trailers and colors in the water answers countless questions. Going forward you can choose the best trailers for your application without having to waste money and time on all the others. Do your fish each bluegill? Try a "profile" trailer. Do your fish get pressured by other anglers? Its time for an "action" trailer and some erratic movement to draw the strikes.
With all the baits and trailers covered in this video its hard to keep them straight in your mind. Below you'll find links to all 19 trailer configurations, in order. We've also included our 4 favorite chatterbaits, as well as color recommendations whenever possible. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Tactical bassin is hands down the best Chanel on CZcams 👏👏
Thank you!!
By a country mile !
@@tacticalbassin your channel is gonna get hotter that a hookers doorknob on payday
Be better if dude didn't talk so much. Js
Agreed
I'd watch this all day...its my happy place! Plus, there's nothing good on TV anyway, and the news just pisses me off.
Agreed! CZcams is my cable TV!
Yep!
Truth
Fake and lying news!🤦
Sierra’s play by play calls are amazing!
Zona better watch out! Might have a new commentator for the elite series 😂
Your daughter giving you the mojo with the fish dance. Too cool!!
Ha! She's too funny!!
You and Tim are the best bass fishing educators ever and I'm 80 and look forward to MWF for your videos. Thank you for all that you guys do.
Great video Matt, I can't get enough chatterbait info. You and Tim are by far the best fisherman/teachers out there.
I never would have thought to use a super fluke as a chatterbait trailer, I'd eat that if I were a bass
I use a shad color Chatterbait with a Smokin Shad Zoom fluke to imitate a crappie, and wear them out in my local river.
I've been using fluke as trailers for years. A little super glue helps with last longer
@@archangel19 Bingo! I bite the head off and use a dab of glue also. My pb in Mass is 7 4oz on that bait.
Great on a Spinnerbait too
Has anyone used the StreakZ From Zman. Seams like it could last for a very long time.
I love these! I can watch the entire video of all 19 trailers....multiple times.
I never skip through your videos, the longer videos are the best ones, so much information !
I've always thrown a super fluke on a chatterbait this is the first time I've seen somebody else try it! It kills!
Gotta love Sierra taking credit with her fish dance! 😍
That Spunk Shad 5.5 looks amazing in my opinion, as well as the Zoom Super Fluke and the Yamamoto Cowboy were my favs. Awesome video guys!!! The underwater footage is some of my favorite TB videos. It teaches us so much about the baits we throw. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos. Best on YT for sure!!! 👍🏻🤘🏻👌🏻👊🏻🎣🐟💯
I found the best chatterbait trailer by far : black minnow’s body. It kicks fast like the blade, send light flashes with its flat sides... it over performs swim senko, easyshinners by a magnitude of ten. Crazy. The blue back or blue back chartreuse is my all time favorite on whiteish chatters.
Great job Matt... really...
You guys are top tier and your videos are just getting better and better.
You're literally giving free guide trips every week 😎🤙
Love the underwater footage guys. I know it takes a lot of time to get those shots just right. I appreciate the work you put into it. Never thought about using the keitech upside down. I will have to give that a shot. Really liked how that gambler komodo looked on that jack hammer. I need to try that combo. 👍
I liked the idea of cutting the keitech tail for a little less action
Thanks! We're happy to do it because we know it helps. There were several trailers in here that shocked us too 😳
Another awesome video from you. As a kayak fisherman I'm limited on what I can take. This video helped me out pick out the right trailers, thank you.
Great to see you and your family fishing together. Thanks for sharing
As a replacement for the zoom super fluke, you should try the Zman “jerk shad” or “streak”. It has a softer body which gives it more action, and 20x the durability. Tight lines 💪🏼
I also use zman swim baits like the diesel minnow and razer shads .. I was disappointed to not see more zman on this video
One of my new found favorites is the zoom fluke stick. Randomly decided to try it bc I had a few used ones laying in the boat bc I save them for ned rigs but a zoom fluke stick trimmed down and on a chatter bait has a great action and for when you want a smaller less bulky profile making the fluke stick more versatile of a bait
The simple, classic, multi use, underrated swim jig ever.
ZOOM SALTY SUPER FLUKE
is my go to.
You gotta try a 10,000 fish yotoworm as a trailer, caught a couple largemouth and a huge saugeye fishing it this past weekend, great action!
You guys always produce the best, most thorough fishing videos on net. Hope all is going well in Tennessee
This channel is crack rock for Bass fisherman!
Thanx for the upload Matt!
I said it in the last video she was in and im sayin it again, your lady's net skills are ON POINT. lol
My thoughts exactly, my wife gotta step up her game! 😂
@@hardknoxs 🤣
With the chatterbait being my #1 go to lure for bigger bites this is an amazing video. Thank you!
We're happy to help 👍
Great stuff guys! Thanks for showing all the actions! I am headed to Chickamauga on Friday, would be great to meet you guys!!! Tight lines!
Yep, the last action category followed by the profile category are my 2 favorites
Honestly that carry flapper shocked me looked so good
No doubt, gotta grab some of those for sure
Me too
Never hurts to just put a zoom finesse worm on there! Looks good in a pinch. Love y'all's videos, best in the business.
I hate Chatterbaits and have them all in a box to give away. Then I decided that I needed to fish them more and now I know why the Jack Hammer is so popular. What's funny is I used the BBB Swimon. That thing is hands down the best Chatterbait trailer. Let's hope I can learn to like these baits next season. Thanks Matt!
Good video. I learned a thing or two, even though I'm not a tournament bass fisherman. If I was trying to win a contest, I'd do exactly as you suggest, but I have my own suggestions how to maximize your fish catching. 1) Fish as often as you possibly can to stay 'in practice'. 2) You don't have to have a boat, but it helps a lot. 3) Keep your tackle in well maintained condition regardless how high or low quality it is. 4) Keep your bait/lure in the water as much as possible. 5) Don't do tackle prep in the boat. Do as much rigging at home as you can. Don't make the fish wait for you to get it together.
I think I actually squealed like a little kid when I saw just the title. You have gotten me so addicted to chatterbaits. I have one tied on at all times. This is my video the one I dream of all the time. THANK YOU I cannot say it enough Thank you for all you do.
The strike king rage tail looks AMAZING as a jig trailer
I love the Spunk Shad my fav. Definitely hard to get these days. The Jackall i-Shad is a good one, I just wish they made bigger sizes. The Z-Man Razor Shad and two that nobody talks about is the A3 Anglers Crazy Tail Shad and the Bellows Gill (crazy action). All great chatterbait trailers. I am a chatterbait addict and this video is right up my alley. Thanks guys!!
Now I know what kind of trailer I need to run on my chatter baits. Thanks for the information. Love the under water 🎥. 🎣
5” straight tail worms do it for me 👌🏻 the action is amazing!
I use the Keitech Custom Leech . Hands down the best trailer I've used . It took the place of the Fluke for me . Especially in grass !!!
Love these underwater videos. Help us see the action of the trailer and how to use the lure. Keep it up!
10,000 Fish Yoto Worm as a trailer is awesome
It's tail action is much like the hog farmer... but has a bigger body profile with deeper ribs for more disturbance in the water.
I was looking for this comment, I was hoping to hear his opinion on it
I'll just throw this out there as another for anyone to try. Missile baits D Bomb rigged sideways. It's side profile matches a pan fish perfectly. Insane action as well.
Thanks bro, I can get these locally. Definitely going to check it out.
Man I love your guy's videos!! Such great role models of the sport dedicating so much time to teaching other anglers! Always great seeing the family out with you! I have a little boy and another on the way I appreciate you guys! Fishing is a passion of mine and you and Tim have been do inspiration of mine, thanks ! I looked forward to yours and Tim's videos!
Always love the underwater stuff!
I normally use a super fluke because I have tons, but those spunk shads are absolutely killer
Your daughters reaction in the background made me smile 😍
I’m really liking the BBB Swimon and hog farmer spunk shad from the underwater footage
Great video love the underwear. The osp Dolive stick is a awesome trailer. Thanks for all the great info
Thank you for what you guys do, where else would you find such an informative video in the CZcams fishing world. It would take you at least a year and lord knows how much money to gather this info they just stuffed into an easily digestible 25 minute video. Thank you again I will definitely be revisiting this video all year long
Every time Matt talk about pop pop cut and dash then smack gets me hyped haha
I have been using the Gambler Komodo it has really worked. I was surprised by the actions of the Fluke, looked great as well.
I catch bumpin, jerkin, rippin the chatter with cowboy craw off the bottom with the original. I've caught them mostly in clear water river channels. I was surprised to hear you didn't bump them off the rock bottoms. I got the freedom cfl and crosseyez I'm going to try with this technique next. Thank you for the content. One of my favorite shows and appreciate your honesty/integrity for what baits work, why, videos exhibiting movement, etc.
Love these underwater action vids!!
thanks for the consistency with uploading great vids tactical bassin. !
I’m going to have to try a beaver some time. Looked really good with that little up and down motion. I have a few other baits from this video I’m going to try out soon too. Great video!!!!!
Great video, I use a yamamoto heart tail, cut off about an inch off the front
mATT THIS IS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE BEST FISHING CHANNEL ON THE NET.. YOU GUY ARE THE BEST I'M A 45 YEAR VET OF BASS FISHING AND I HAVE WON A BOAT IN TOURN. NOT SAYING THAT TO BRAG BUT TO LET YOU KNOW I HAVE CREDIBILITY WHEN I SAY YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST
i really appreciate how in depth your how 2s are. i was getting frustrated when the summer bite went away and i couldn't confidently locate the fish. i watched some other video's and still wasn't quiet succeeding. but now that ive seen yours i know when ive had bigger fish on it wasnt just luck or the time of day and i can focus my energy in those spots confidently. i fish every morning just about before work in the afternoon so its frustrating when i get up at 5 am for one or 2 small fish. ty god bless!
Spunk shad definitely I’d eat it lol thank you for all you guys do!!!
Chatterbaits are killing it for me during this fall transition
Jackhammers are expensive but worth it.
I like the stealth blade with the 3.5” spunk shad, nice combination of subtle with the ability to still draw a reaction for all the pressured ponds near me.
The fluke has been my favorite trailer since I haven’t been able to pick up some spunk shads... (or I just keep forgetting 🙄😅) they haven’t been torn up too bad, but it could be the way the fish eat the bait... either way the blue spunk Shad and the pearl colors look ridiculously good. And for the craws I was noticing that the rage menace, while having less kicking action did give the bait a lot of rolling action, much like you go for in a swim jig
Great Video! Love the underwater footage! Thanks!
The spunk shad is a great trailer, I prefer the 4.5” and I like to add a little red color. I do like the Zako too! It also looks good on a ball head jig. The under water videos are so cool! Thanks for all you and Tim do to make us better anglers 💯
Ok I’m convinced.. I ordered off ur links I’m glad to support you and your channel .. thanks for teaching me how to bass fish😄
Great information. Very revealing look into bait movement.
Thanks for the videos you put out bro!! I'm semi new to this and you answer all the questions I basically have!! I just don't have the means to aquire the best of the fishing gear thats out there, but thanks again for your time and the work to help us get better!!
For anyone who hasn't tried it, a pretty good looking trailer for me was a Strike King Rage Grub (the one with the single curly tail, not the Menace).
Amazing job, South Florida fishing guy here. Mainly from the bank. Thanks for the great content.
My biggest chatter bait bass, a little over 5 lbs came on a jackhammer with the Yamamoto cowboy. Great video!
Awesome video as always. I see the fluke trailer in my future. Might I suggest leaving the lure name on the screen the whole time during the underwater footage.
Matt ive heard you say you were stoked about the Chatterbait Mini Max, so I’ve got a trailer recommendation for y’all, and that is the Berkeley Powerbait Twitch Tail Minnow, it gives its that same profile as the Spunk Shad but in a smaller package. There was a company called Lucky John that was making a bait that was very similar in profile to the twitch tail, but I can no longer find them, and they were great on a full size chatterbait. I had multiple 30+ pound days using that bait, because it gives the best of all worlds, you can make it have the reaction like the spunk shad, but it gives a good profile, but it always gives a lot of action because of the little bulbous tail for a straight retrieve.
This is GREAT! I just posted a video to my local community asking what is their favorite trailer for a blade bait! Thanks for the graet info., and I'll be linking this video to mine!
The Chatterbait has become my #1 bait. I just catch bigger fish. I have every color available and use the Strike King Rage Tail. I am Definitely trying the fluke trailer!!! Thanks guys. Would love to fish and learn from you guys!! Come visit me in Jacksonville!
I watched every second. Spot on and I was very surprised at how good the fluke looked.
The cut keitech is goated
this is a great video matt with your family, good job.
and the info on a chatter bait.
Super Fluke was my favorite trailer UNTIL you guys got me to try that Spunk Shad and now THAT is definitely my fav!!!!!!!Thanks for what you guys do it’s absolutely awesome to see your footage ❤️💯❤️🎣🎣🎣
I like the flatworm style trailer. The Nikko Leech on a 3/8 jackhammer is my current favorite; just run it so the flat sides are vertical and the lobe tail is free to swing horizontally with the motion of the chatterbait
Why not the Lake Fork Live Magic Shad? I know it is similar to a Zako but it has a whale fluke. Very popular and tournaments proven.
I second the LF Magic Shad! Love the smaller Pearl or Shad color on the SpotRemover Jackhammer!
Awesome video great info love it all and thank you .... a video you watch multi times and keep coming back to for info 😂... and the wife showing off Jedi net skills and landing a chunk herself like no big deal 😂 do this all the time 👊😎👍
Love the channel. I look forward to Mondays, Wednesday, and Fridays! I love the Yoto Worm as a trailer.
The 6th Sense Flush 5.2 is my go to trailer! There is a little ball at the end of the tail that creates an erratic action. The next new gear review should included a bunch of 6th Sense baits!
The quality of your video it’s amazing as well as the info.
Thanks for sharing ♥️🎣
Spunk Shad has been the best hands down for awhile. Now everyone will throw it. The swim on looks awesome too
Underwater testing video is great. Would like to see more of this.
I love every single one of the videos you guys post but for awhile now I swear every video that posts I wake up for work and peek with one eye hoping the notification is for the South America footage!! Haha love you guys thanks for always teaching and entertaining us.
Nice as always, We agree on the chatter baits and funny I was just trying to find a trailer for the fire craw color, My go to has been the swim Senko upside down. I'll be trying the fluke and craws this spring.
I used the Yotoworm from 1000 Fish during the winter /spring transition with decent success but haven't had as much success during the spring. Not sure if you guys have thrown it but I'm curious what u guys think bout it.
*adds having my wife being able to cast a bait caster confidently as a marriage goal* - love your channel guys!
Love ur guys channel so helpful
AWESOME footage! One thing I've done is cut down used trick worm and split the tail and the action is pretty good
No mention of my two favorites...Z-man Razor Shadz and Reaction Innovations Little Dipper
Awesome video!!! But Definitely that super fluke was surprisingly good and I have it readily in my tackle. But definitely going to buy a bunch of spunk shad on my next order.
I was just watching the panfish patterns and I was looking off to the side and the image of the lure in my peripheral vision began swimming much more convincingly. I imagine what I was seeing is a bit closer to what the fish see.
Thanks 🙏
For the life of me, I don't know why you guys don't have a million + followers. You guys are amazing.
The one in your right hand at the beginning of video looks damn good. Edit: I watched the rest of the video, its the spunk shad.
You have got to try using a D Bomb as a trailer! It has been my number one producer! The legs on the D Bomb has awesome action on a chatterbait!
I love your net person and your little cheerleader Matt. Great video as usual
Lizards make great trailers too! I cut the heads off before putting them on. Great action and bass smash them. Especially around beds.
Honestly my favorites from this video were the Kickin Zako, the Cowboy, that big bite, and the zako. But pretty much 100% of the time, im throwing that zako. So much confidence in that bait.
