Designed with EverGreen International, this 1\/2-ounce bladed jig gives you a low-profile head-and-blade combination that helps it deflect off cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Gamakatsu heavy-wire flipping hook, double-wire trailer keeper, and hand-tied silicone skirt complete the presentation. Choose California Craw or Smallmouth Magic, then fit your preferred soft-plastic trailer to adjust the profile while keeping the hook gap and blade clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Z-Man.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: ChatterBait JackHammer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 1\/2 ounce.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantity: 1 lure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned with EverGreen International.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlat-bottom, low-profile head.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThin stainless steel blade for quick-start vibration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eErratic swimming action and cover-deflecting head-and-blade design.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGamakatsu heavy-wire flipping hook.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-wire soft-plastic trailer keeper.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-tied silicone skirt.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColors: California Craw and Smallmouth Magic.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Fish It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThread a suitably sized soft-plastic trailer straight onto the double-wire keeper, taking care around the wire and hook point. Leave the hook gap open and check that the skirt and blade move freely. Select tackle rated for the complete rig, including the trailer, and suited to the heavy-wire hook.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStart with a steady swim along vegetation edges or beside cover with an open retrieve path. Let the jig sink to the depth you want to fish before winding. Make a short test retrieve beside you to check the trailer's alignment and find a pace that maintains blade vibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse your countdown, rod angle, and retrieve speed to adjust depth. Add a short acceleration or brief pause, then resume the swim. After contact with cover, stay ready for a bite as the lure changes direction, but don't assume its deflecting design makes the exposed hook snag-proof.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep contact during pauses and reel into pressure when a fish takes the lure before setting the hook with controlled force. If the vibration changes, check for weeds, debris, or a twisted trailer before casting again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare and Storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse after use and let the jig dry before storing it. Inspect the hook point, blade connection, and double-wire keeper regularly. Clear debris that could restrict movement, secure the hook in your tackle box, and leave the hand-tied skirt loose rather than compressed beneath other lures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SFVU","offers":[{"title":"California Craw","offer_id":50984872575195,"sku":"CBJH12-27","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Smallmouth Magic","offer_id":50984872607963,"sku":"CBJH12-28","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/5320\/7003\/files\/z-man-chatterbait-jackhammer-cbjh12-27-california-craw.png?v=1793311217","url":"https:\/\/www.reelfishcartel.com\/products\/z-man-chatterbait-jackhammer-1-2-oz","provider":"ReelFishCartel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
