On Saturday when I was pre-fishing for a tournament I had bought a couple of the ORIGINAL chatterbaits to go along with the Gamblers I had.
I tied one on Saturday ( never been fished with ) and the DERN thing flew apart when I casted it !!!!! All I had left was the BLADE !!!
I should of looked at the jig to make sure there wasnt a gap. BUT no, I couldnt do that or think about it. I guess when something is new you dont EXPECT defects in it.
So as a friendly reminder, double check the lure to start with.. ( I did tie on another one and it was good to go )

I will go look over the one that I have tied on.
