As always a great description of why. Like your videos and the way you lay out the descriptions. It makes it much easier to see what you are talking about.
I see Matt Stephan is really haveing an influence haha I built a 907 a month or so ago and I just finished a 906 but have only caught one on it, ive caught a bunch of fish on the 907 though and its an awesome rod for a chatterbait, haveing said that the 907 seems to also be a very versatile rod, obviously it is designed for mid or deep cranks and I might be crazy but ive throw a spinnerbait with it a few times and its been awesome for that too, I think it'll work well with almost any moveing bait. I think the 906 is going to be great for baits like the mini max which im a big fan of since I started throwing it a couple months ago, im actually putting guides on an mb874 as I type this thats going to be my new frog rod. This rod building thing is addictive but im gonna need alot more reels!😆
This type of video are what make you one of my favourite fishing content creators, Tyler, but I watch all the other vids too! My favourite trailer so far for the MiniMax has been a 3" or 4" curly tailed grub. It gets smashed by largies, smallies, pike, and walleye, especially in my local river.
My favorite chatterbait has an underspin. The black/blue is what I've had my best experience. Lots of the things I've heard is for it to be attached straight to head of jig. This isn't, but have caught some toads on it. Great show 👏.
Ty B, i’m from Baltimore and I’ve been watching you I listen I learn, best thing about it you don’t try to sell new products you got the product sell them self and you just explain how different equipment works and what works best for you in every day situation‘s around the world my biggest thing I thought that you had to switch your channels she were going to start your own channel either way I’m a fan of the freedom collaboration with chatter bait that swinging head it runs through and true I hope no one doesn’t scam on 100,000 subscribers do you know I don’t win I usually buy all my stuff and it’s fun with me and my buddy goes out to switch things here and there but when you subscribe to all these channels and you watch and you watch and you watch you comment and you notice some guy comes in and just subscribes may be about almost may be a day before you come through, and Bam this guy is a winner and I hope that your people pick just randomly because even though someone comments and watches every day doesn’t make them a winner just makes them a supporter and I support your brother I’d rather have the truth than going into a store and not knowing what to buy because I don’t know how to fish but I appreciate everything because even someone that knows a lot don’t know it all and someone that knows everything still gets skunked cycle football game any given Sunday it’s like any given day on the water
Strike king bladed minnow is a great for a trailer, it’s like the zako but a more erratic action, it’s kind of like you’re jerking the bait when you’re reeling but it swims really well at the same time, I recommend it.
Tyler, thanks for the tips on rod and reels I should be using with my bladed jigs. I was happy to find that I am using the same trailers you described but I have not cut them the way you do. I will be trying your technique next time I am out.
I have played with rods fishing the bladed jigs as well, I was definitely losing more hooked fish on my standard 7' MH fast SLX rod... I need most of my rods to be crossover rods so I settled on a different 7'1"MH fast Scheels rod the action is much slower I have been pleased with my hook up ratio and can fish other baits on it like the swim jig, even crankbaits... when I make the jump to a dedicated chatter set up the B Hite rod will definitely be on my radar. Nice break down brother... 🐟💪✌
I bought a KVD setup for my chatterbaits, the 7"10 composite medium moderate action rod/reel combo it is buttery smooth and so seneitive i love it, i thought the rod was too big until i fished it. The combo is my favorite setup and it was half the price of the competition and just as good, my reels that cost the same price as this entire setup are not better in any way, only thing i wish wss different is i got a low speed reel, wish i got it faster, i like the fastest reel they have available, it's much easier to fish a fast reek slow then a slow reek fast.
You should give the kamikaze swimon a try if you haven't already, its probably my favorite trailer for a jackhammer. A jackall i-shad is another great trailer for the mini-max too.
Love the video and especially the breakdown of how you actually rig your trailers. Just wondering what your thoughts are on the z-man willow vibe. Compared to the chatterbaits.
I've been using my same rig as I use for spinnerbaits and so far working fine. 7' medium heavy/fast graphite with 12-15-lb hybrid line, medium speed reel. The hybrid line stretches a bit more than pure flouro but not as much as mono, so that kind gives it a little more flex like a more parabolic/moderate action rod would give. I'm comfortable wit the feel of it on the hook set, and it has also held them well when they've tried to throw it. But I like the idea of trying the moderate action too. Maybe as a dedicated chatter bait rig.
Composite ! Yes sir...that's one of many reasons you@ 100K.I need theoropy I've got 4 chatterbait set ups Love the 20lbfloro on 3. Still like 1 short rod with heavy mono for short casts dirty water jungle.shallow water 3ft. or less water. Jackhammer ! Spend it $ Great vid that's all u make.
Have you tried the Big Bite Baits kamikaze swim-on? It’s an amazing Chatterbait trailer. I like it way better than the Zako. It’s more durable and I seem to get more bites with it than the Zako. I fish the Kamikaze 95% of the time. They make a 4.25 that fits the Jackhammer and a 3.75 that’s perfect for the mini max. It has this split tail that has a awesome action behind the Chatterbait. It also makes my Jackhammer hunt more which I like. Your tip about using a flat trailer to fish a bladed jig around wood was a game changer for me. I don’t lose near as many now. I fish mostly around grass but when I fish around wood I use a pit boss or a sweet beaver as a trailer and get hung up way less.
Huh go figure. I started off throwing my chatterbait on what I was using for frogging with the fast action, but it felt way better on my glass crank rod. Good to know I was heading in the right direction.
Hello Tyler as always great video I wanted to ask you what is a good braid for baitcaster would like to spool a couple with some good braid I don't know much about braid but want to try it thanks any help would be appreciated thanks
I'm not Tyler, I'm just another dude who likes to fish and watch this channel... I've fished braid for a long time, and tried many brands. For my money, I go with Power Pro... It seems to outlast the others without breaking the bank. The regular power pro is very good, Power Pro Slick V2 is a little better (and a little more expensive)... If you're spooling for top water, or something where you want 50 pound braid or heavier, go with Power Pro Maxcuatro (it's 25% thinner than the same strength standard power pro). Hope that helps. Tight lines!
I am also a fan of the original power pro. It is a 4 carrier braid which is great for strength. Sometimes the high carrier braids like berkley x9 can be good as well. The bigger difference is the higher carrier braids are a little smooth, but they also cut into themselves at times
The Ark 7’ mh catalyst rod is an amazing chatterbait rod it says it a fast taper but its much more parabolic than you would think and at the price point it cant be beat!!
I had exactly what you described happening to me today. Feel’em hit set the hook fish on fish off 🤬 and as soon as I can I’m definitely buying a rod for bladed jigs. Thinking 7’2” med hvy mod fast
What helps as you feel the suction obvious reel line down til rod tip is parallel to water once the drop the tip an wait for negative pressure an suction stops. The second that suction stops that you feel you say phrase I'm gonna set the hook then give the fish the business. I learned that from flukemaster. You can even use this yes on a spinning rod. Yes the pros are pros for a reason. The pros have sponsors so when they tell you you can't use a spinning rod an reel combos is obviously to get their cut from a sponsor from a fishing rod an reel company. Just an FYI
I have to totally disagree, I have used both. St Croix heavy glass rod,and a Lamiglas 7'2 med heavy graphite..My lure THE JACKHAMMER..1/2..On the St Croix glass rod Diawa Steez 6:31.On the Lamiglas Si series Abu garcia mgx 8:01 ,especially in heavy hydrilla. The JACKHAMMER really shines in hydrilla. No 2 WHEN fishing a chatterbait, set the hook when you feel the weight of the fish, just like a topwater (As in a Zara Spook, or a Strike King sexy dog)..I 'M NOT ABOUT TALK, I'M ABOUT ACTION.
i bought my first chatterbait last week and the fisrt day i fish with it i caught 2 muskies. Ine 42" and the other one was 45 " /23lbs !! 🤩🤩 I'm still looking at the pictures !
I was wondering if you have ever tried the Hogfarmer spunk shad or the Big Bites Kamikaze swimon on the back of a chatterbait yet, and if so, what did you think? Both are supposed to be great and made especially for the chatterbait. Thanks for sharing
The big bite swimon is my favorite trailer for a jackhammer and ive tried alot of stuff, the first time I ever caught a bunch of fish on a jackhammer I had a baby brush hog on it haha
My go to bait is always a jackhammer and the zakko is the most productive trailer I’ve ever used but… lucky two get two fish on one before it’s torn up. So frustrating it has me constantly searching for an alternative.
@@averageontarioanglers that’s been my go to as of late actually, because they do last forever, and don’t inhibit the action.. but hopefully they come out with something a little better designed to fit the chatterbait. Being picky but another 1/2” in length and a little more bulk around the body etc…
Good video as usual. But, I've fished a chatterbait many times since they csme out, in large lakes and small, in a creek or two, with or without trailers. I have never had a strike. Not one. Even in waters with tons of tighteyed scaly fish begging to get hooked. Not once. I still have one bait. I keep it in my tacklebox just to remind me what not to buy again.
I always put a 15 degree bend on all of my chatter baits. Increased my strikes by 45% due to more chatter/vibration. Everything over 6.3 seems to run my chatter baits to fast🥴
How does this rod handle being ripped through weeds? From some of my past experiences glass rods would get to soft/spongy when fishing weeds and couldn't shake them ruined the cast
Have you heard about or tried putting a swivel on the original chatterbait to get more action out of it? I've seen people swear by doing this but haven't tried it myself.
I have been throwing a bladed jig on a moderate fast action rod for three years , since I switched I seriously can't remember losing a fish because of the rod , did lose an entire fish and stealth blade when my line broke , as far as trailers I don't think it matters in most cases, I don't use paddle tail trailers because I think it affects the action, I like the kamikaze swimon, ZMan razor shadz , the Zako and prefer the hog farmer spunk shad in cold water , personally I quit buying trailers, just using whatever beat up plastic I have left over, some great underrated trailers, baby brush hog , baby d-stroyer , any paddle tail swimbait with the tail cut off and a half of a trick worm , I have not noticed a decline in bites when I'm using any of these
Good stuff brother! I'm a dinosaur so I still use my 16yrs old Quantum Energy PT rod and reel; a 7ft med heavy fast action graphite and 7.0:1 "Burner". I use it for spinnerbait, chatterbait and swim jigs and it's served me well through the years. Your info is definitely on point though...maybe soon I'll grab a Hittay! Love the work you put into your Channel, I'm working on making content too. Keep it up! Fi$h-N-Game 4LIFE 🎣😁👍🏾
Main reason is pumping up the line doest really effect the action of a chatterbait at all, and I do fish a chatterbait around a lot of heavy grass, wood and dock situations. Hooking a big fish in thicker cover, I really like to have the extra strength...But if 12 lb works for you...then stick with it!
heck, if I had a bigger budget I’d have a different rod for each lure also, just because. That said, and admittedly, being pretty inexperienced and simultaneously quite frugal, I don’t understand why the heck it is said that I need so many different sets of rods and reels. Why can’t I just use my medium heavy Abu Garcia reel rod Revo X for everything as I actually already do? Ok ok obviously I ain’t gonna put 1/16 oz on it but I mean like everything else, including chatter baits.
Sorry a typo. What I'm trying to say is when you start to feel suction from fish reel line an lower rod tip til rod tip is parallel to water once rod tip is parallel to water drop rod tip an say I'm gonna set the hook. You say the phrase an set the hook once negative pressure aka suction stops. Pros are pros for a reason, they'll tell you not to fish with whatever because they get a cut from sponsors from bait an rod an reel companies that sponsor them. Everyone I know has used spinning rod an reel combos for many years on frogs an lots of other lures these pros tell you not to use spinning rods and reels as I said before so you buy combos of baitcaster these pros promote so they get paid. It's a no brainer. Sorry for rambling guys sadly I never did well with writing in school so...😆🤦🤦🤷♂️

I use a 6'10" spinnerbait rod. Medium heavy!
I get in the rut of liking the chatterbait and end up just using it most the time. Need to learn to pick up the other rods as well.
As always a great description of why. Like your videos and the way you lay out the descriptions. It makes it much easier to see what you are talking about.
That caffeine shad mini max combo is bangin!!!! Might need to take that to the river next weekend!

Almost every single one of your videos is just one that I connect with for some reason I even bought one of your hats keep it going my man!!

Hi Tyler. What do you think about fishing the bladed jig on braid to fluorocarbon leader? Thx
Thanks for the info 👍
What do you use to repaint blades when fishing in grass? I can’t keep paint on them more than 15 to 20 minutes.
I'll tell you what I use. Good and cheap BPS 7' medium heavy crankin' stick. 6.8 Lews baitcaster!
I use the Ark essence 7 MH composite just because its a full grip but its an amazing rod
That reel looks just like my older bps carbon lite reel, same dial for the brakes even similar color…..
I know what reel you are talking about and yes there are some similarities
Excellent video really enjoyed it thanks for your advice 👍 what brand 20 pound fluorocarbon do you use ?
My go to bait is always a jackhammer and the zakko is the most productive trailer I’ve ever used but… lucky two get two fish on one before it’s torn up. So frustrating it has me constantly searching for an alternative.
Ever tried the ZMan razor shad? Similar style but will last forever
@@averageontarioanglers that’s been my go to as of late actually, because they do last forever, and don’t inhibit the action.. but hopefully they come out with something a little better designed to fit the chatterbait. Being picky but another 1/2” in length and a little more bulk around the body etc…
Good video as usual. But, I've fished a chatterbait many times since they csme out, in large lakes and small, in a creek or two, with or without trailers. I have never had a strike. Not one. Even in waters with tons of tighteyed scaly fish begging to get hooked. Not once. I still have one bait. I keep it in my tacklebox just to remind me what not to buy again.
I always put a 15 degree bend on all of my chatter baits. Increased my strikes by 45% due to more chatter/vibration. Everything over 6.3 seems to run my chatter baits to fast🥴
How does this rod handle being ripped through weeds? From some of my past experiences glass rods would get to soft/spongy when fishing weeds and couldn't shake them ruined the cast
Another amazing video! When would you use the minimax, bigblade, and or the original chatterbait?
Try Irod’s Gabe’s rip rap special for the mini max
$500 gift card is the perfect gift. That's a good quality setup or alot of chatterbaits.
You know it. Or a lot of lures!
Extremely light? it is almost 180gr/6.3oz!!excelent rod, tough
Excellent
Great video
Idk if you will read this but if you get a chance please try out the Omaha Rapture Bladed Jig. It's the ONLY bladed jig that hunts like a crankbait
I have not tried the blades jig before. I have tried the Phenix lures blades jig which also hunts a lot too
Have you heard about or tried putting a swivel on the original chatterbait to get more action out of it? I've seen people swear by doing this but haven't tried it myself.
stay with the line to line tie
I like he cross eye for pond and rivers
The cross eye is definitely a good chatterbait. I need to do a full video on it sometime
I have been throwing a bladed jig on a moderate fast action rod for three years , since I switched I seriously can't remember losing a fish because of the rod , did lose an entire fish and stealth blade when my line broke , as far as trailers I don't think it matters in most cases, I don't use paddle tail trailers because I think it affects the action, I like the kamikaze swimon, ZMan razor shadz , the Zako and prefer the hog farmer spunk shad in cold water , personally I quit buying trailers, just using whatever beat up plastic I have left over, some great underrated trailers, baby brush hog , baby d-stroyer , any paddle tail swimbait with the tail cut off and a half of a trick worm , I have not noticed a decline in bites when I'm using any of these
I agree. I don’t think trailers always matter and you are definitely right, you don’t need a paddle tail
If I buy this rod can I throw a spinner bait on it and a buzz bait
Where in Ohio are you at? I live in SW suburbs of Cleveland. Any suggestions for fishing lakes in Ohio, Michigan
I’ll change rods once I get a fish on a chatter. 5x out with one not a single bite yet
Cool video!
Good stuff brother! I'm a dinosaur so I still use my 16yrs old Quantum Energy PT rod and reel; a 7ft med heavy fast action graphite and 7.0:1 "Burner".

I use a 7'4" g man heavy g force rod. I love tge action of that rod. Plenty of backbone but has plenty of tip.
I've tried the chatter bait , and I know they work.. But I can't buy a bite... I will try your tips, and hope it works...
I use Delta chatter baits my self !!!!
I have no luck with a chatterbait but I still try
Every chatterbait I ever had gets snagged on the first cast or after a few casts 😂
Why do u bump up to 20 lb. Line? I'm sure there's a good reason. Maybe your fishing some cover, only reason I would go up from my 12 pound Floro.
Main reason is pumping up the line doest really effect the action of a chatterbait at all, and I do fish a chatterbait around a lot of heavy grass, wood and dock situations. Hooking a big fish in thicker cover, I really like to have the extra strength...But if 12 lb works for you...then stick with it!
Jesus, how many videos are you putting out a week?! Dude chill
Usually 3 or 4. Sorry if you don’t enjoy
Dude,I don't have have a different rod for every different lure that I use
heck, if I had a bigger budget I’d have a different rod for each lure also, just because. That said, and admittedly, being pretty inexperienced and simultaneously quite frugal, I don’t understand why the heck it is said that I need so many different sets of rods and reels. Why can’t I just use my medium heavy Abu Garcia reel rod Revo X for everything as I actually already do? Ok ok obviously I ain’t gonna put 1/16 oz on it but I mean like everything else, including chatter baits.
You can! You can have rods that crossover for a lot of lures, but some guys like to have a designated rod for specific lures and a chatterbait is one
Tried to go buy the rod and they’re sold out. 😂
Sorry a typo. What I'm trying to say is when you start to feel suction from fish reel line an lower rod tip til rod tip is parallel to water once rod tip is parallel to water drop rod tip an say I'm gonna set the hook. You say the phrase an set the hook once negative pressure aka suction stops. Pros are pros for a reason, they'll tell you not to fish with whatever because they get a cut from sponsors from bait an rod an reel companies that sponsor them. Everyone I know has used spinning rod an reel combos for many years on frogs an lots of other lures these pros tell you not to use spinning rods and reels as I said before so you buy combos of baitcaster these pros promote so they get paid. It's a no brainer. Sorry for rambling guys sadly I never did well with writing in school so...😆🤦🤦🤷♂️
