Has anyone replaced the snap that comes with the bait? The one on there looks pitiful. I'm thinking about trying to get a stay-lok on there but wanted to learn from others experiences first.

Thanks!

I heard today that they're now going to beef up the blade so you won't need to worry about it.

It would have to be beefed up quite a bit for me to trust it.

I got the word from Luke Ronnestrand. He seems to know his stuff. Now I just wish I owned one.........

Derrys - I'm tempted to send mine to you....

Yeti - I'm going to try the modification with the split rings and #4 snap. Unless you have come up with something even better. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

I caught a 40" last week on the MI ChatterBait in stained water - did exactly as it should. That said, after catching the fish I noticed the snap was nearly breaking - so I replaced it with a heavier snap. I talked to Brad at MI about this and he said that he is shipping a much beefier version this week for all to enjoy.

The lure rocks!!
