I had 45 of the old warts and couldn't catch a d**n thing on them. Switch to a Bandit or Rebel Deep Wee R and started catching them. Sold most of them off for crazy money but kept a few just in case.

Does this site do auction donations? I have been a part of other places that you can donate stuff for auction to support a cause. Wondering if there is one here as I have some stuff I would donate to help a good cause.

California is slightly above Syria for places I would like to live. Having spent some time there for work I know the area is beautiful but the state government I could not handle.

Some of the things I have heard of over the years to do.
File the blade part of the buzzbait frame a little square.
File both the blade and rivet where they meet which will make it squeal more.
Crimp the rivet in place, heard this will make more noise because the blade is rotating against a stationary object versus one that can move.
Bend the wire to make the head drop down a little deeper into the water and improve hookups.

My lunker lure buzzbait I found in a tree. Thing was so loud you almost wanted ear plugs. Caught more fish off that buzzbait than any other. I still have it but the last fish it caught was a 46" Tiger Musky so it has been medically retired.

What you are wanting to do with the bait I agree with everyone else, Red Eye Shad. Others will work but none that I have tried shimmy on the fall like a RES.
Just pour your own or get someone to make the heads for you. I won't say anything negative about another bait maker I just don't know how he came up with such a high price?

Taking a break from spinnerbaits to start cranking out some tubeheads. Everyone and their brother uses them around here so I need to make a ton of them. For some reason they have been hard to find? I have the supply problem of that solved.

One recommendation would be if they are not working would be to bend the arm from the head to a higher angle. It would help the bait run better and not swing side to side as much.
