WVbassin87 Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 I bought a black Strike King Bleeding Elite serires buzzbait for my next trip which will be mostly at night, but i was wondering if throwing it after sunup would still catch fish. Quote
Phoenix Guy Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 It will work for a bit in the morning and late evening in the summer months, but in the fall, i have thrown a black 3/4oz buzz bait all day on the Lake of the Ozarks. Just one of those deals where you gotta experiment and see what the fish tell you. Quote
Fish Murderer 71 Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 If it were me, and depending on sunny vs. cloudy then I would choose sunfish colored for sunny and fire tiger for cloudy. You can try your luck with black, but if no reaction after the sun is half way up- switch colors. run a shore line with your black, if it works, continue... If not run that same shore line again with something lighter colored. Keep a rogue set up handy for a missed strike. 1 Quote
B@ssCrzy Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Yes it will work. Just will depend on the conditions for the day. When it is cloudy and overcast I like a black on black buzzbait. 1 Quote
tholmes Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 Yes it will work. Just will depend on the conditions for the day. When it is cloudy and overcast I like a black on black buzzbait. My favorite spinnerbait for overcast days is a black skirt with a hammered copper Colorado blade. No reason to think a black buzzbait wouldn't work too. Tom Quote
Bank4Bass Posted June 12, 2014 Posted June 12, 2014 I killed the bass on a black/red Buzzbait in the middle of a warm sunny day earlier in the season. My go to Buzzbait color in any conditions Quote
Super User Catt Posted June 12, 2014 Super User Posted June 12, 2014 Jack (fishfordollars) Yates secret lure was a 1/4 oz black buzzbait. Quote
Super User Marty Posted June 12, 2014 Super User Posted June 12, 2014 I think they'd work. I don't use black buzzbaits, but I've caught fish on black Jitterbugs and black soft plastic toads under bluebird skies as well as less bright conditions, so I see no reason why black buzzbaits wouldn't work as well.

craww Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Im a bit of a buzzbait fanatic...I own white and chartruese buzzers, but Black is pretty much all I throw. Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted June 13, 2014 Super User Posted June 13, 2014 Black is one of my best, it almost always works. Heck yeah it will work during the day, especially when it's cloudy. Quote
5fishlimit Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Yes, it will work. Also get a white one, and those will be the only 2 buzzbaits you need. Quote
Super User flyfisher Posted June 13, 2014 Super User Posted June 13, 2014 I don't think color matters too much on a buzz bait other than in your head. I have caught fish on black, white, chartreuse and even some that the skirts got torn off at all times during the day and night. 1 Quote
Bobby Uhrig Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Don't listen to dock talk-Its all just talk- that black buzz bait will work any time day or night -PERIOD Quote
Super User gardnerjigman Posted June 26, 2014 Super User Posted June 26, 2014 Black Omega buzz bait + lake of the Ozarks is a match made for any fisherman! Quote
Mr_Scrogg Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Nope, Black Buzzbaits most definitely DONT work during the day. 1 Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted June 26, 2014 Global Moderator Posted June 26, 2014 Black is about the only buzzbait color I use, day or night. Quote
Bobby Uhrig Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 What color is the big fish caught on in the middle of the day 1 Quote
