Cavitron dosnnt come in a 1/2oz. I believe you meant 3/8 oz. But you were correct on the black on black and that Cavitron are the best

I bought a Cavitron buzzbait last year at the SC sportsman show. When i asked which one i should get the guy said"can't go wrong with chartreuse". The first time i threw it i caught a 3lber.  So I'm gonna x3 the Cavitron but go with the chartreuse.

I picked up 1/8 oz versions by Strike King and Booyah. I've read that that the smaller ones can actually outfish the larger ones at times. I stuck with solid black and solid white. We'll see which brand sticks more fish.

Topwater crush on ultra light....can't wait :)

I'm gonna have to say the cavitron as well.  Many of the colors have produced for me.

Another vote for Cavitron. The 3/8 oz black blade on black skirt is my go-to, but I've had a lot of fun with red on black, gold on white, and gold on Secret Weapon Lures gold shiner skirt.

I also use the subtle 1/8 oz Strike King Mini Buzz, usually with the blades bent forward so I can slow the retrieve down. It works well after a small cold front slows down a hot bite. It's also a good option as a follow up bait after you've fished a stretch with a big buzzer. Plus, it's a fantastic river smallie lure.

Haven't tried a cavitron, looks like I need too. I've done really well with a black War Eagle 1/4 oz and a homemade 3/8 white head, white painted blade, and a clear skirt with silver sparkle, they tear it up in clear water.

Advice on Cavitron maintenance:

Your lure is going to get beat up, twisted and

bent. Bend it back into shape and keep fishing.

The worse it looks, the better it fishes!

Like I tell everyone-"Use what you have confidence with" thats better than any brand on the market
