Z-Man WillowVibe
Designed by ChatterBait originators Ronnie and Ron Davis, Z-Man’s ChatterBait WillowVibe links a hardened, stainless steel willow leaf shaped blade with an aspirin-shaped jighead, for an intense, rapid-fire vibration that is ideal for targeting schooling fish.
The jighead features lifelike 3D eyes, a super-sharp 2/0 black nickel hook, and a wire keeper for pinning soft plastic trailers tightly in place.
Matched with finesse straight-tail and swimbait trailers such as the StreakZ™, Finesse ShadZ™, and Slim SwimZ™, the WillowVibe produces a tighter action and higher frequency vibration. It can be fished throughout the water column, from deep counts to surface wakes.

Used the WillowVibe with a Finesse ShadZ trailer and caught a school of bass in the mid-depth zone. The vibration was strong and consistent, and the hook held well during the retrieve. Great for both slow and fast actions.
Nicola Scott –
Fished it in the early morning and saw a lot of activity. The 3D eyes helped with visibility, and the trailer stayed secure thanks to the wire keeper. A solid choice for finesse fishing.

The blade action is very distinct and produces a tight, rapid vibration. Works well with both deep and surface patterns. My favorite jig for targeting active fish in varying conditions.
