Flames, You are getting closer to unlocking the mystery of the chatterbait bite, the more time you spend fishing it. P N J

when the water level is dropping the fish tend to move towards deep structure, try wading out a little further if you get to go back out during the draw down. when they start bringing the water level back up fish the newly flooded areas along the shoreline.

pnj i got the chatterbait down (tho i use a knockoff jiggerbait) i was fishing a lake with a friend night fishing caught one topwater while scimming the surface and another one right at the boat started throwing a buzzbait and caught 2 more but then went back to the chatter and caught 3 more bass i can just feel them "flop" on the bait my friend was even throwing a real chatterbait but wasnt getting any hits on it and just yesterday i was fishing a really really old looking boat marina (the ports for the boats were growing weeds thru the wood) i had pitched a trick worm weightless didnt catch nothin texas rigged a sweat beaver and nothing then i throw my chatterbait to the exact same spot and started working it just below the surface when i see a wake just nail the lure a really dark healthy bass about 2 lbs
