Favorite Buzzbaits

[Gone_Phishin]

My all-time producer is the old Leverage buzzbait by McGuinness.  My PR also came on this bait.  Over the years I have lost only one fish on this bait, and that's without a trailer hook.

Strike King Premiere double buzz.

x2 I wonder why everyone doesn't throw these.

[RoLo]

Persuader double buzz for me. It is a derivative of the old Blue Fox double buzzer of which I still have one or two also. I prefer the double buzz for two main and opposing reasons. First, they stay on top at very slow speeds and still make quite a ruckus. Second, in river current, where I do 95% of my fishing, I can burn them in and not have them wash out due the side force of the current. In the summer, Smallies are in the fastest water a lot of times and you really have to be moving the buzzer to attract any bites.

I no longer use double-bladed buzzers, because in my experience they tend to pick-up more weeds than single bladed buzzers.

1/8oz Strike King Tri-Wing Buzz King

That's a good one too, especially on calm days. I usually use the bigger models, but the little 1/8 ouncer can get you into buzzbait action when they show no interest in the bigger, louder ones.

For that reason, I usually won't use a buzzbait over a flat slick surface, but opt for a quiet topwater instead.

To me it seems that bass are intimidated by lure commotion that's much greater than the natural surface ripple.

But the noise and turbulence from that same lure would work fine in choppy water.

If you're more patient than me though, working a loud, splashy buzzer over a flat surface

is a good way to nail a big slob that's not easily intimidated.

Old lunker lure was my first love but there have been many improvements since those days and now if I'm throw'in metal, I like SK and Cavitron. I have gone more to the soft plastics because they can be fished thru the slop easier and make just as much racket with a more realistic look and body movement. www.ragetail.com

I've followed nearly the exact same path as you 8-)

My favorite is the Booyah Buzz. I'm looking forward to trying my Rage Tail Shads, after seeing them on Hook n Look, I think they may be more versatile.

Thank you Bobby for sending a few to Guntersville for our guys to try out.

I fished the Cavitron last summer and had one of my best days EVER! with the 3/8 oz version,  black on black. In addition to immediatly getting up on plane, the Cavitron Buzzbait produces a unique "chirping" sound. When it's time to throw a buzzbait, this will be the only brand I use!

War Eagle and Revenge are my favs.

3/8 oz. Black Booyah Buzz. Small metal piece that slaps the blade on every rotation. They can't stand it, kills 'em every time.

I've been using Strike King buzzz\baits for several years and have caught lots of bass on them.

[hjerk24]

Strike King- Chartruse with a bleeder hook right from Walmart.  I had caught more bass on that top water bait than any other.  Usually pick up one or two a trip to Walmart.  Can't beat the price.

I use a black buzzbait at dark. Black is supposedly a good color for night and buzzbaits are also good for night because it is hard for bass to see at night and the vibration helps them find it. IT has turned up good results for me. As far a brand goes I dont think it matters a whole lot if they look and function the same. I usally do not buy the name brand ones because the other ones perform just as well. I buy $1 spinner and buzzbaits that work perfectly and name brand ones from strike king and etc. cost $3-$5.

I have a lot of success on calm water days with buzzers. I usually use nothing bigger than a 1/4 ounce though on such days. When it's more choppy, I will go to the bigger buzzers and the double bladers.
