You have enough to last a long time . I tend to use 1 buzzbait until the blade or rivet wears through then start on another one .

Same, I have two that I actually use. Both Cavitrons, one is just a backup.

Overdone? Not at all.  You got a few dark ones, a few light ones, a few different brands (3 of the better brands, to be exact).  You'll wear them out eventually, grind down the rivet on the blade, destroy the skirt, bend the wire beyond repair....but it will be worth it. Good timing too -- buzzbait season starting up again about now...

I have maybe three buzzbaits, all different brands, and none of them run straight and true.  Is there a trick to tuning them, other then just fussing with the wire a bit every cast?

Awesome! Can't wait to use them this weekend!

I see you bought some cavitron's . Good for you, I see you bought one of the first clacker models.  It's buzz bait time. I promise you will catch some giants and also numbers now that the water is cooling .

Yeah I got some cavitrons, some lunker lures, and the top two are war eagles.  

B) TW got to me the other day too, also on buzzbaits.

Ha, finally got that pic up. I guess I overdid it too.

Cavitron is by far the best lure I’ve used in almost any situation. I pond fish a lot, and anymore that’s all I throw in the red blade black skirt variety. I once went out on the canoe with two others, all of us using buzzbaits. I had the red black cavitron and they cycled between different other brands they had and out of the 30ish bass we caught I caught 90% of them. They went for the cavitron every time lol

Really glad that Cavitron has a clacker version now. I fish a lot of really dirty water and it's nice to have that little extra to call them up. 

 

The Crock-O-Gator head knocker is another great buzzbait. I like the big 3/4oz one that cast great and has a blade about the size of my outboard prop.

Jackall Firecracker is another great clacker model.
