TRYING TO ID AN OLD BUZZ BAIT ABOUT 1980 MODEL

Featured Replies

I have a lure I cannot ID. A buzz bait with the old skirt missing. (possible living rubber skirt)    Pretty sure it is from about 1980..  I do not think it is an infomercial bait either.  My father probably got it from Kmart or maybe Bass Pro.  Any help, thanks.  Trying to add a photo but having issues.     Maybe email me and  I can attach that way?  john@everettsmith.com

Lunker Lure was one of the 1st popular buzz baits for bass.

You think?    It has no writing on the blade or head.  Pretty heavy.   I guess the idea is the wide head gets the bait up on plane quick.

Wow.  Never thought this would get an answer this quick.    Many thanks.  

So has it ever caught a fish for someone here?  Anyone?   

I have fished it before but I was like 10 yrs old and it was a lot to ask for a Zebco spin cast to pull that thing.
