Z-MAN ChatterBait Jack Hammer 3/8 oz. – California Craw

Z-MAN ChatterBait Jack Hammer 3/8 oz. – California Craw

The Z-MAN ChatterBait Jack Hammer is the most refined and tournament-proven bladed jig in bass fishing. Designed by professional angler Brett Hite, it features a hand-tied Living Rubber skirt, a premium Gamakatsu hook, and the original Z-MAN ChatterBait blade for maximum vibration and deflection. California Craw is a bold, sun-baked crawfish color that blends fiery orange and green tones inspired by the warm-water crawfish found in California and Southern reservoirs — a standout reaction color in clear water and during the spring crawfish spawn.

Key Features

• 3/8 oz. — the most versatile Jack Hammer weight for medium-depth presentations around grass, rocks, docks, and laydowns
• Hand-tied Living Rubber skirt — more lifelike action than injection-molded skirts; produces a natural, breathing crawfish profile on the fall and retrieve
• Premium Gamakatsu hook — ultra-sharp, heavy-wire construction built for landing big bass on heavy line
• Original Z-MAN ChatterBait blade — creates the signature high-frequency vibration and erratic deflection that triggers reaction strikes
• California Craw color — a fiery orange and green crawfish blend inspired by warm-water Western and Southern crawfish; outstanding in clear water during the spring crawfish spawn and on rocky, hard-bottom reservoirs where bass are actively feeding on crawfish

How to Fish It

Cast to rocky points, gravel bars, and hard-bottom flats and retrieve at medium speed. California Craw is a top spring color on clear water reservoirs and warm-water lakes where orange and green crawfish are abundant. Pair with a matching orange/green Z-MAN CrawZ or SwimmerZ trailer for a realistic crawfish presentation.
