Re: Spinnerbait vs Chatterbait
I have used and caught Cod on chatterbaits, cheers davo
It's an exhilarating feeling catching a fish
But it's an even better feeling releasing them

Never seen a skirted jig. Google image shows it similar to chatterbaits without the blade thing.

Re: Spinnerbait vs Chatterbait
I have used spinnerbaits a lot more than chatterbaits and therefore I have caught more cod on spinnerbaits. I think, and am happy to be corrected, that if you are after a very slow retrieve then sb's may be the go. This may be due to the particular ones I use and the fact I use them at times in strong current.
My fav brand of chatterbaits are constructed locally here in Shepparton...'4D Spinnerbaits'. They were suggested by a local tackle store for yellas. All I caught on them were cod but on saying that, with hindsight I don't think there were many yellas where I fished. Bassman also have chatterbaits but they call them mumblers. Bassman also have mumbler jigs which you add skirts, plastics whatever.
I would certainly get a few chatterbaits to try. As with other lures, choose an appropriate size for either cod or yellas. The following colours, or combinations will work...black/red/purple/green/yellow/orange.
Cheers
Jim

Yeah I guess it's worth to have and try. Seems like spinnerbait is more popular but maybe because they have been around more.
I read something that chatterbaits give more subtle vibration than spinnerbaits, but the retrieve can not be as slow as spinnerbaits, hence not in the strike zone as long.
