Chatterbait and Swim Jig Tricks You Actually Need To Know!!
Finally! The tricks that make all the difference! When should you throw a swim jig instead of a chatterbait? What about just throwing a swimbait? What makes one better than another? Its time to find out exactly what each bait is for and when to switch between them!
Chatterbaits are incredible lures! They're ability to catch fish is rivaled by only a few other lures. But do they have a weakness? Of course they do! That's where the swim jig steps in. Understanding the differences between the chatterbait, swim jig, and swimbait will help you catch fish day after day. Learning to use these baits as a system instead of sticking with a single option will allow you to adapt to changing conditions on your lake.
