How To Fish A Chatterbait (Beginner Tips AND Advanced Tricks)

The Chatterbait is one of the best bass fishing lures of all time! Its easy to use, even beginners catch bass on them. So why is one guy consistently catching bigger fish on a Chatterbait than everyone else? Are you the guy that's catching them or the guy that's wondering why someone else is?

Matt takes us to the core of the Chatterbait technique in this in-depth seminar-style video on chatterbaits and bladed jigs. From the baits themselves to an underwater look at the Chatterbait trailers, we're going to examine every aspect of chatter bait fishing. 

We don't stop there, we're also going to discuss rods and gear for the technique. Matt examines both the finesse and power fishing approaches to Chatterbait fishing and explains the merits of both.

How To Catch The Biggest Bass In The Lake | Full Seminar 2018

Matt Allen teaches you step-by-step how to catch the biggest fish in the lake. From swimbaits, to jigs, to reaction baits, he teaches you the techniques and tricks you'll need to fool the biggest bass in your lake. 

Its not complicated and anyone can do it, once you understand how to "trigger" a feeding response from bass instead of waiting for them to bite. From A-rigs to jerkbaits, jigs, and of course giant swimbaits, you'll learn exactly what it takes to consistently catch big bass. 

This year the tank was extremely crowded (Thank you to each and every one of you that joined us in person for this seminar! We couldn't do this without you and we're so grateful you took time out of your day to come see us!) Because of the crowded conditions we were not able to get camera angles on the tank to show the fish's reactions to the bait. We apologize for the single camera angle but we hope you enjoy the information!

One of the keys to consistent success is to match the hatch. Learn what the fish in your lake like to eat. If they eat shad, kokanee, trout, bluegill, crappie, or other baitfish you can choose the baits that will best trigger those bass into feeding.

Matt also explains how to fire up a school of fish and creating a feeding mentality. Using this method you can use the behavior of small fish to trigger giant fish into feeding aggressively, even when they don't want to bite!

Depending on the food the bass are eating Matt explains how to target them by fishing swimbaits and glidebaits, jig fishing, or switching to reactive baits like the swimbait, underspin, or jerkbait. The last method we recommend using to catch trophy bass is night fishing. We break down how to catch those night fish with swimbaits, swim jigs, or jigs (jig and pig). 

If you use these tips and tricks to catch bigger bass, you're going to have an amazing year on the water! Trophy bass fishing doesn't have to be a mystery. These are the exact baits and methods we use to catch bigger fish and you can use them too!
