It ought to catch fish well. With or without the skirt. Yea not a lot of people seem to use it. I like to use skirts when I want a larger profile and not when I want it smaller. Quote

I always use a trailer but I like to take the skirt off and just use a trailer most in open water scenarios or rocky areas because I feel like with weeds/wood the skirt helps it come through better. But as a side note I will always use a skirt in muddy or heavily stained water no matter what for maximum water displacement and vibration. Quote

Now you have a secret chatter/trailer combination and confidence in it. 1 Quote

einscodek Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 I tried a rage frog on a chatterbait and even a buzzbait once.. not the greatest idea try everything if only once I guess.. Quote
wytstang Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 I love using Gamblers flappy daddy on my chatterbaits, the way those claws flap behind a chatterbait gets plenty of bites. Quote
