Description

Ideally suited for pairing with a DieZel MinnowZ™, RaZor ShadZ™, StreakZ™ or other paddle- or straight-tail bait, the Eye Strike® ChatterBait® marries a distinctive hexagonal ChatterBlade® with an ultra-attractive Eye Strike® jighead using Z-Man's patented and proven direct head-to-blade connection. The stainless steel blade vibrates vividly on all retrieve speeds, activating the jig and matching softbait with the proven, seductive ChatterBait motion. Oversized 3D eyes create a prominent strike target, while the jig's sharp keeper barbs snug soft plastic trailers securely. Custom 4/0 or 5/0 Mustad® UltraPoint® hooks stay sharp and fit a variety of popular swimbaits and trailers, tailor-made for bass, redfish, stripers, walleye and other fresh- and saltwater species. Made in the USA, the EyeStrike® ChatterBait™ features a super-strong line tie and available in three blade and jig color combinations and 1/4-, 3/8- and 1/2-ounce sizes.

Field Notes

Use this as a vibrating bladed jig around cover, grass edges, and active fish. It works well on a steady retrieve or a stop-and-go retrieve to make the blade thump and the trailer kick. Best when fish are feeding aggressively and want a moving bait with strong vibration.

Pros

  • Strong vibration and flash
  • Pairs well with soft plastic trailers
  • Versatile for bass, redfish, stripers, and walleye

Cons

  • Can be less effective when fish want a subtle presentation
  • Blade can pick up grass and debris
