Do you guys have any luck fishing chatterbaits in mostly rocky lakes? my home lake has very little grass and it seems most fish them around grass.

We don't have many lakes without grass around here, but I've done very well fishing them on the river where there is no grass around. They absolutely work in those types of places!

Yes especially largemouth lakes.
Thanks everyone, I have been wanting to start fishing it more just did not know if it was worth it in a rocky lake with very little grass.I will give it a fair showing the next time out.
yes, both around riprap and on lakes without much or any vegetation
THE MORE YOU SAY THE MORE WE UNDERSTAND AND ACCEPT YOU ANYWAYS
Absolutely. Mostly what we have around here. Best advice would be parallel the bank and look for targets.
Slow roll it along the bottom just barely ticking thr tops of the rocks.
Chatterbait will work just about anywhere and everywhere. The only place I shy away is in heavy wood simply because they just don't come through it well.
I've got several 1 ouncers I'll slow roll deep offshore on ledges and rock piles in the summer.
They work everywhere. I can't think of any lure innovations in the last 15 years that can touch the bladed jig. I always have one on my deck... usually 2. They flat out catch them!
Zman makes a football head chatterbait just for that purpose https://zmanfishing.com/cms/products/chatterbait_cfl
Ok, that is cool! I'm gonna grab some 3/4 for lake roosevelt, those smallies won't know what hit them.Originally Posted by emccarthy
Yep they catch them anywhere. But don’t forget about the good old spinnerbait either. I’ve noticed since the surge of chatterbait fishing my catch rate has went back up on them
Check out Revenge chatter baits. They have a trailer keeper built into the top of the head which makes it completely weedless.
