BUZZBAITS
BASS ANGLERS LOVE BUZZBAITS
By Ken Liebeskind
Yalesville, Connecticut
For bass anglers and other fishermen, nothing is more exciting than watching the water explode in response to the action of buzzbaits. To a hungry bass, the unique splashing, sputtering, and gurgling commotion created by buzzbaits is very hard to resist.
Buzzbaits are a specialized top water form of a bass jig that differs from spinner baits and other top water lures such as poppers, spitters, prop baits and stick baits. It's not a complex lure, featuring a pointy, flattened lead head, a silicone skirt, and 2-winged aluminum prop blade on top, with an aluminum rivet for the famous squealing noise.
Buzzbaitscan be fished when the surface temperature of the water ranges from 65 to 90 degrees, in spring and summer.

Buzzbaits should be fished around shallow wood cover, over shallow grass beds, through thin emergent grass, around flooded willow bushes and around floating debris. The proper buzzbaits size is about 1/4 oz. for bass less than 2 pounds and a larger size for bigger bass. Professional anglers think buzzbaits color is important, with natural baitfish colors used in clear water on sunny days and dark or bright colors for murky lakes and overcast skies.
A number of lure manufactures make buzzbaits, including Bumper Stumper Lures, Hildebrandt and Lunker Lure, which claims to have introduced buzzbaits in 1976.
Another exceptional hardbait lure for bass fishermen comes from http://www.scientificfishing.com, the world leader in scientifically developed lures that are guaranteed to catch more fish. The company offers the Kick Tail lure that mimics the motion of a real fish through patented technology that breaks the lure's tail into five segments. As the water rushes by, the tail wags left and right and unlike other hard baits, the head remains stationery, only the tail wags.
This is the lure professional fishermen say swims more realistically than any lure they have ever seen.
We invite you to try the Kick Tail lure along with your favorite buzzbaits and see which works best. You'll snag a lot of bass along the way, that's for sure.
