Ladson, SC - In the seasons since the inception of the original ChatterBait® JackHammer™—even while countless anglers profited by catching giant “PB” bass and cashing fat tournament checks— bladed jig maestros Brett Hite and Morizo Shimizu continued their quiet conjuring behind the scenes.

The third collaborative project between the ChatterBait architects at Z-Man® Fishing and eminent Japanese tackle artisans Evergreen International, the JackHammer clan is due to deliver its newest offspring in just one week.
