Field Notes

A compact bladed jig for bass fishing when you want vibration and flash in a smaller profile. It works well around cover, on windy banks, or when fish want a subtler presentation than a full-size chatterbait. Fish it with a steady cast-and-retrieve, or add brief pauses and rod twitches to trigger reaction bites.

Pros

  • Compact profile for pressured fish
  • Strong vibration and flash
  • Trailer keeper and skirted design

Cons

  • May be too small when fish want a larger profile
  • Requires soft-plastic trailer for best performance
