Frisbie385 Posted September 13, 2023 Posted September 13, 2023 Hello everyone. I was wondering if anyone had any of the Evolution Grass Burner BuzzBaits they would like to part ways with? Shoot me a message if so. On a side note. Anyone have any idea why these are no longer available? I assume the company went out of business.
Kirtley Howe Posted September 13, 2023 Posted September 13, 2023 I can't find any info on the company. However there is one listing for that bait on Ebay...they "only" want $100.00 for it.
Kirtley Howe Posted September 13, 2023 Posted September 13, 2023 After further research I found the company (Evolution Baits, NOT Evolution Lures) was founded in 2016. They made several different lures, but their primary lure was the buzzbait. They used to be sold at BassPro, Cabalas, Tackle Warehouse, and a number of "select" dealers like Willow Creek Baits. Willow Creek Baits still list them on their website, but show them as out of stock, with no potential back in stock date. Bass Pro et. all no longer even list them. Evolution Baits website is still up, but appears to be inactive/abandoned. Evolution LURES is a saltwater lure company that was founded in 2001, and is still very much active in that market, but has no connection to Evolution Baits. I did find listings for sinkers with the Evolution Bait name attached, but do not know if that is the same company that made the buzzbaits. I also found a listing for a buzzbait that seems similar to the Grassburner. It is listed on Amazon as the Dragon Buzzbait. It sells for around $25.00 plus shipping and is an imported lure. You may want to check it out. I hope this helps......

Kirtley Howe Posted September 15, 2023 Posted September 15, 2023 I went back thru the links I used to find the Dragon Buzzbaits.....but it seems that the links now dead end. I cannot find a working link to them anymore. They no longer show up on Amazon or Walmart.com. I did find a different Dragon Buzzbait, that is made in America, but it is the typical style buzzbait with the large front buzz blade and a small "tickler" blade the hits on the wire frame to create a clicking sound....but it not even close to the Evolution buzzbait or the Dragon Buzzbait I found earlier. Sorry I can't be of more help.
BASS302 Posted September 15, 2023 Posted September 15, 2023 A search found: https://www.coyotebaitsales.com/evolution-baits-grass-burner-buzzbaits/ but they are $19.49. I've never bought anything from them so can't give any more info. Are they "worth" that much?
Kirtley Howe Posted September 16, 2023 Posted September 16, 2023 They listed for around $15 to $25, so yeah that is a reasonable price. But do they actually have them in stock? Everyplace I found that listed them showed them as out of stock, and no indication they will ever be back in stock.

postoak Posted November 24, 2023 Posted November 24, 2023 I have one in what looks to be bluegill. I hated it after using it two or three times. If you want it I'll send it for the price of postage (my guess) -- $7.50. Just message me.
928JLH Posted December 5, 2023 Posted December 5, 2023 I have one too from a mystery tackle box from a few years ago. It's in a bin in the garage and I put it there after i fished it a few times. White and chartreuse if I recall correctly. I have no need for it. PM me if still searching for one.
