Last year was my first using buzzbaits. You cannot go wrong with Cavitron. I personally prefer the 3/8 white.

I've never thrown one. Hear A LOT of guys on here love them and, from the pics, for a good reason.

My buzz of choice is a tie between the Omega Alpha Buzz, or the Croc-o-gator head knocker

This was the first time I fished one, biggest bag of buzzbait fish I've ever caught. All on 3/8oz black on black, yeah, I'm a fan :)

Yep, they work!  My favorite buzz bait.

Green, they are excellent.

 

You can reel them slow and they still stay on top of the water.

 

And their "squeak"  is not high which I think can scare the bass away.

 

Once you set up your baitcaster to avoid backlashes you can cast and start to reel as soon as the Cavitron hits the water's surface or right before.

 

Enjoy!

Yes i have some in 1/4 oz. 3/8 oz is my favorite. Black or white cavitron with black, gold, or red blades are the only buzzbait i throw

You don't hear about the head knocker anywhere other than LOZ, but they are excellent buzz baits. The blade actually hits the head, which gives them a very distinct sound.

 i've mentioned before..i use diff. buzzbaits in diff. situations..most have there own sound.....in clear shallow water i use tri-vibe from strike king...more of a quieter flutter sound that doesn't scare the fish. At night i fish the clacker buzzbait from boo-yah...all others i use a cavitron.

Love my Cavitrons! By far my favorite buzzbait due to how slow it can be retrieved. A very fun bait to use, you will enjoy it!

My advice would be to buy a few different brands of Buzzbaits, some on the lower end, some on the higher end, maybe some in the middle in terms of price (or jst whatever few brands will fit well into your budget) and give them each a good amount of fishing time to truly test their worth, and then pick the one that you like the best and fish it.

They are a great buzz bait and you are right... You get away from the ozarks and nobody knows what they are!

Cavitrons are awesome.  I caught a lot of nice fish on them last year in the spring and fall.  I only have 4 buzzbaits I ever throw.  3/8 and 1/4 black blade black skirt cavitron and 1/4 and 3/8 oz white with red blade.  Fish the 3/8 oz ones when there is a decent wind and chop on the water and fish the 1/4 oz ones when the water is pretty calm.  Seem to do better with black on black earlier in the year when the fish first start hitting them and when its dark.  Around May during the shad spawn and in the fall I do better on the white.  My friend and usual tournament partner has 25 buzzbaits from 15 different lure manufacturers and spends more time trying to figure out which one to tie on than actually fishing.  I end up catching more on a buzzbait than he does.  With buzzbaits dont over-analyze just tie one on and keep it in the water.

I caught tons of fish on the ghost color until I backlashed and got it hungup on a laydown while bank fishing. Havent had the same luck on white as I lost that one on a bad knot..
