hey guys, i have a dum question, do you use a trailer on your chatterbaits? ive been using a gary yammamoto double tail grub as my trailer and i havent been doing to hot on them. i was wondering if i even need a trailer or not.
Depending on the bait I’m trying to imitate I’ll use a Yum Boogie Tail or Craw Chunk. I like these because they don’t interfere with a trailer hook like a curly tail would. The only time I wouldn’t use a trailer hook is if I were beating a bank.

ever try putting the trailer ON the trailer hook? Use a smaller trailer and put it directly on the trailer hook, works good sometimes.
Yeah, zoom Flukes work great on chatterbaits, and gives it a slimmer profile. If I’m using an original Z-Man chatter bait, I always use the split tail trailer that comes with the bait. It helps keep the skirt in place.

never caught a bass without a trailer on my chatterbaits, i use a 5” kalin lunker grub and a red 2/0 trailer hook. Never had much luck with a twin tail trailer.
