The Z-Man ChatterShad is a soft ElaZtech trailer designed to extend the action of a ChatterBait. Its segmented body transmits vibrations to a thin, fan-shaped tail. Choose the length based on the size of the blade jig to maintain the proportions of the rig.
The ChatterShad’s tail moves in response to the action of the lure to which it is attached. The segmented, diamond-shaped body transmits vibrations from the blade all the way to its thin, wide tip. The V-shaped ridges on the tail help displace water as it quivers.
The trailer’s size complements that of the spoon jig: a short body maintains a compact silhouette, while a longer body extends the profile further. This choice alters the proportions without compromising the action generated by the spoon.
The ChatterShad can also be used on a jig head or a swimbait hook. Its ventral and dorsal slits make it easy to attach a hook with a protected point.
