Who has the best Buzz bait???

Featured Replies

I found  a Castaic Duckett buzzbait early in the year and it brought me some real quality hogs.

always swam straight and i will be picking up more.

 

also on ebay theres a seller named hunter creek that makes a very nice buzz bait that will ship it to your door for under $5. caught plenty of big bass including a 5lber a few days ago.

    Cavitron or Crock-O-Gator

  • Nearly all single blade buzzbaits run off to one side/direction or the other to varying degrees. It is the physics behind rotating blades and the torque produced. Weight of the bait, size of the blade

  • Shadcranker

    Hands down, and not even close IMHO, it's the Cavitron 1/4 oz. They are disigned to plane out quickly, and they can be reeled extremely slowly. Also have holes in the blads to make a bubble trail.

For all of you guys that are stating that the cavitron tracks off to the side  or swims on a 45-HERE IS THE ISSUE -you are fishing it too fast-just slow it down PERIOD THE END-

 

I think I've just about tried them all and have come to the conclusion that there's no reason for me to own any buzzbait that isn't a Cavitron. 

Just go fishing and enjoy . It's the most exciting way I find to catch bass. Fall is coming and it's turning on  go play my friends

I use the Cavitron and the booyah myself. I have however had a couple of the booyahs skirts fall off after a fish or two. That has never happened on the Cavitron.

So I just started using buzzbait and still wondering which one is better? Sooo many to choose from and when would you wanna use a clacker or one with holes or no holes etc? And best weight for use?

 

 

Cavitrons are my my favorite followed by Booyahs. 

 

 

 

....however, I've stopped using buzzbaits and use Whopper Ploppers now in size 90 and 110, almost always 110. 

 

If there are any weeds I use the weedless Whopper Plopper, the Teckel Sprinker Frog. 

Does field and stream carry the mega strikes ?

I just can't get a cavitron to run straight.  If I reel any slower it goes under.  I only have two of them and they both run off to the left right out of the package.

A bait that runs left or right still catches fish .  I like to have two rigged up that run both ways . The Original Lunker Lure runs a different direction than most other baits .  Keep a Lunker Lure and Cavitron rigged  and bump those stump.

Most anglers fish buzzbaits way to fast ?

Agreed. I fish near locks that have long walls that jut out into the river. Sometimes I will bend the wire to deliberately run left of right so they will bang up against the wall all the way down.

These are most of my buzzers . I have more scattered around . No reason to have this many when I find a good one then use it until its wore out .

As others have said, my favorite is the cavitron.  Don't have to burn it to keep it on top.

Weird. Between my friends and I we've bought a ton of Cavitrons and never had any issues. 

 

 

If you contact the guy who sells them he'll probably help you out. He was really helpful to me when I had a problem.

 

 

Also, try a Whopper Plopper and stop using buzzbaits all together.

Nearly all single blade buzzbaits run off to one side/direction or the other to varying degrees. It is the physics behind rotating blades and the torque produced. Weight of the bait, size of the blade, amount of drag from skirt and trailers, speed of retrieve and other things all play a part, as does any "tuning" you do to try and counteract this. There is nothing wrong with them.

Booyah Buzz 3/8 Oz. in White/Chartreuse Shad and Strike King Swinging Sugar 3/8 Oz. in Super Chartreuse... 

Find the one that squeaks the loudest, that will the best buzzbait you have. ;)

 

I've got this old Lunker Lure buzzbait that squeaks like nothing I've ever heard, and that thing is deadly! It's weird because they just don't all squeak the same, and although there are some tricks to making one squeak louder, sometimes you'll find one that's just in a league of it's own. That's when you've really got something.

anyone needing help just call 732-780-7383 -NO ONE BUT NO ONE throws the Cavitron more than I so i have seen every scenario there could possibly be

I see that they have a new Clacker Cavitron. If I was using buzzbaits still I'd definitely get one of those!

They  (clacker models) are available exclusively at Tackle Warehouse
