Hey guys
Just wanted to discuss chatter bait and if anyone else paints there blade?
I've used regular/original chatterbait for a little while. After seeing a Pro on TV talking about it and how he paints his front blade dark because he had never seen a fish with a chrome or metallic head it got me to thinking that kinda does make sense and he def must know what he's doing.
So I bought a couple of test ones. Found some chatter frogs and chatter bait minis on sell at Dicks.
After scuffing them up a little I used some of my fiances nail polish and painted 2 black and 2 dark blue.
I tested them this past Fri. Out in the river up near burgaw. Unfortunately loosing one in a tree lol.
After a couple hours out there I thought it as gonna be a bust. But I did end up hooking 2 small bass in the shallows of a bend.
Anyhow does anyone else paint those front blades of chatter bait or jigg heads for that matter?
And have you noticed a difference in success rates?
