Default Buzzbait question

It is the time to go night-fishing now, cuz I have to work my project all day time.

I usually get some lucks on Booyah 3/8 black Buzzbait at night. And then I see this one on their catalogue:

Booyah Dancin' Buzzbait



It looks so weird, however, I might like to try it. So does anyone use it? Is it easy to cast this 15 inch thing?

Any comment is appreciated!

its an awkward lure to cast, it just don't feel right is the only way I can explain it. Never caught fish with it and still havne't figured out why I wasted my money.

I don't have any and won't buy any. The idea is the hook and skirt are supposed to ride lower in the water. Which means more foul ups, since I fish my buzzbaits in and around cover DUH! My buzzbaits work fine, and I can't believe I wouldn't bend, break or warp that thing out the first time I used it. I mean I bend out normal spinnerbaits, and have to re-tune those. This thing would bend twist whatever, and porbably a nightmare to get back into tune. I have to tune my buzzbaits now, and I wish they were made out of Titanium.

Thanks Lizards

I'll do rather use BLACK JITTERBUGER! lol...

Any way, what buzzbait are you using now? I mean brand, weight and size. Also I heard a lot of people talking about re-tune buzzbait. Actually I did too, but for me, it doesn't change the result a lot. Any way, how did you re-tune your buzzbait? thanks.

I buy ACCENT High Riders, Buzz B-2 buzzbaits. There is a picture of one in the post about what I'm giving away for the tourney. It's a twin prop buzzbait, and my preferred weight is 1/4 oz. I like Wht/Chart or Chart/Blue/Black, but I have every color, and will throw the colors based on conditions. I love these buzzbaits, and few people throw a twin prop buzzbait, so it's something a little different.

Oops forgot about the tuning. The wires especially on the props will get bent pretty easily, especially netting those hawgs LOL. The net will get caught up on it, or even other poles. You just have to bend them back to the original shape. You will be able to tell as you are retieving it, if it's running correctly. Don't get me wrong, it only takes a second, but you do have to keep an eye on it. They do get caught up with weeds etc also where I fish mine anyways. But tuning is just a matter of bending the wires back to the original shape for me. Unlike cranks where you tune them to run left, right or straight. You can make it ride a little more on it's side, but I just prefer the normal High Riding action. I also believe that since this is a high rider, I get less foul ups, and better hook-ups since they hit it harder.

Thanks again.

Is it this one:



I'm looking for some Buzzbaits, which will be across surface slowly( I think it is crucial for night-fishing). So I think this one you recommended is the right one i am looking for! However, It might be hard to find in Canada. Any way, I'll try. Any suggestion about slow action buzzbaits?

BTW, I can't find ACCENT High Riders, Buzz B-2 buzzbaits, however I've this one on LBF:

Hart Tackle Hart Beater Twin Blade Buzzbait



Is that OK?

I like LBF, cuz their shipment to Canada is pretty cheap compared with the others online shopping sites.

Thanks

Notice the different bulbs on the end of the prop blades. Those help it stay up, and has a lot less weight. I have tried the ones without the bulbs(that's what I call them anyway) And they are a lot harder to keep on top. I prefer the Accent's, if you can't get them and want some, just let me know and we'll work out getting them to you.

Yeah, I think BASSPRO carries B2. However, They charge me EX shipment fee, 10% custom Tax and GST and PST. All these crap make the price ridiculous high for a single lure. I just feel bad about the way. Any way, what is your suggestion? thanks.

PM me your address, I have several(about 30 I think) in a plano box already opened, and about 10-15 more still unopened in the packages. I will send you a couple.
