The point of the hook and barb broke off of it :(

But the prop and skirt and everything is so nice..shame to just throw it out

Steal the blade and skirt off the bait and save for later. You could remelt the head and pour another but it would not be worth the trouble.

On my cavitron buzzbait :(

Look up Bobby Uhrig on this forum; he is the founder/CEO of Megastrike/Cavitron. I'm sure he'll make this right.

How did that even begin to happen?

Bobby uhrig will probably get you a new one, but you could just put a small, stout 2/0 or 3/0 trailer hook on and bend the broken hook over. Put a small 4" grub on the trailer hook and you'll get them on it most of the time. Fish mostly always go for the back of something unless they completely inhale it. (Or if they just bump it)

Cut the hook back to around the start of the bend of the hook, put either a treble or spinnerbait trailer hook on whats left of the hook and use pliers to bend the old hook closed around the new hook eye. You can even use a EWG worm hook and put a grub or swimming tail worm on the back of it also.

I second that

Sounds to me like a recipe to lose a really big fish at a moment that you dont need to lose a big fish. Take $20, order three more and junk it.
