The reason I ask this is that many people say a buzzbait is best as a mostly early morning and evening lure. Especially effective in the early morning.

I've heard others talk about solid body frogs (toads) as "subtle buzzbaits" because they are of very similar action but more subtle.

For the last 5 years I've caught the majority of my fish on a Ragetail Toad. I'd say 3/4 on the retrieve and 1/4 on the drop/sink. And I've caught fish at all times of the day from overcast and cloudy to bright bluebird days. Some of my best times have been 11-3pm on bright, hot, bluebird days.

The problem with toads is that they get tore up by fish and usually last from 1-7 fish. I'd think that a buzzbait would be more durable.

So, do you think that the majority of the fish that were caught on the toads would have also eaten a buzzbait?

I don't think they would but then again, there's no way of knowing for sure. It just seems like if they aren't biting a buzzbait and I think they "should be", a lot of times I'll throw a toad and get bit. I do catch bigger bass on a buzzbait though.

Bass will bite whatever if it's hungry

So this lake apparently has hungrier bass then most. lol.

I agree with that you're saying though.

Perhaps a buzzbait would be the ideal bait here even though that would go against how bass traditionally eat buzzbaits.
