Happy to be on muskie first now. I have been on the edge about getting these for awhile now and was just curious to see if anybody uses, and likes them? Thanks

I've thrown them quite a bit and always thought they look great and have awesome vibration. But I don't remember even having a follow on one, ever. I know other people have had success with them. Maybe I'll have to dust it off.

i love them because they catch fish, but the blades are inconsistent, some work well and others wont vibrate or come out of water, i have 3 all bought at the same time with different thickness of metal used. also i had 2 with thinner snaps at the nose, both broke on fish but like i said they catch fish so the issues i have with them are a side note

I had one, used it one day, didn't move any fish, a week later took it out of my box & the skirt had fell apart. It was hanging by itself so don't know what it reacted with.

Last year I didn't have any success with it, however this year I have moved a few fish on the black and orange one. One of my good fishing buddies swears by it. He will put something else on and cast about 30 times, if nothing comes it's right back to the chatterbait and it will stay there for most of our outing. They do catch fish, but with any lure you just have to give it the time to prove itself.

I own the black and red model but I have stopped fishing with it. I did move a few fish on it but upon closely inspecting the bait I got nervous looking at h ow thin the steel is where the clasp is hooked up to the chatter blade. I bought mine a couple of years back so I don't know if it is different now.

I have modified mine because I didn't like the clasp. I put a split ring on instead. It takes a bit of working at it but it will eventually go on. I still have not caught one yet but had a few follows, just a matter of time.
