Go Skirtless with ChatterBaits on Cover-Loaded Flats🎣
With the ChatterBait's meteoric rise in popularity, anglers around the country are beginning to experiment with the technique more than ever. Wired2fish staffer Walker Smith is one of those anglers. An avid crankbait fisherman, he considers a ChatterBait to be his "clear-water crankbait" and has discovered that removing the skirt from a ChatterBait can pay enormous dividends in many situations. He actually prefers a skirtless ChatterBait whenever he's dissecting vast expanses of hard cover, such as stump flats.
