Buzzbaits
What is your favorite kind of buzzbait (color, size, brand, etc.)?Personally, I have always liked the Blue Fox doube buzzbaits, but I
don't think they make them anymore. Has anyone tried the Strike King Bleeding buzzbait with the holes in the
blades? Or the Hammerin' Hare Power Buzzbait? Or what about the Leverage
buzzbaits? Do you like them? Thanks.... BM |

higher in the water and can be retrieved more slowly than a 2 bladed
lure. Plus they make more noise and splash. (The buzzbait is
definitely not a subtle or delicate lure!) Color--in my experience, color makes no difference on any top-water
lure, be they buzzers, chuggers, wobblers, or popping bugs. OTOH, size and retrieve speed are variables to play with on the water
to determine exactly what LM want. Even shape seems to be less
important than the commotion topwaters make. Most of my buzzbaits are Strike King 5/8 oz.--not the "Junior" type
which weigh 3/8 oz. The 5/8 oz. are getting hard to find--not listed
in SK's catalog any more (pity). I also have a few buzzers with 4 bladed plastic props. Don't remember
the brand. They don't cast as well as the heavier SK's. |
