Members Fisherman Sam Posted June 29, 2011 Members Posted June 29, 2011 I stumbled across this last year. It's a great video that shows you how to modify a $1.00 walmart buzzbait. I have caught more fish using this modified $1.00 buzzbait than any other lure I have ever used! I highly recommend checking this video out. Best of luck! If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. ~Doug Larson
DChance Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 pretty good video......also try drilling a few holes in the blades as well. One thing I would add to that video is to crimp down the rivet that holds on the blade. you can also tak a file and rough it up a bit. this adds a ton more squeak and noise to the bait.
Al Agnew Posted July 1, 2011 Posted July 1, 2011 Nice video, and good advice Dchance. I usually enlarge the holes in the blade through which the wire runs, and do just like you said with the rivet. A buzzbait with the perfect squeak is a thing of beauty!
Members Tommy Neil Posted February 9, 2012 Members Posted February 9, 2012 You can also bend the wire the blade is on down so the blade hits the wire the hook is on. Makes a real loud click as the bait moves through the water.
Greasy B Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 All great improvements for sure but if the bait still has the narrow gap between the blade and hook point is it for naught? His father touches the Claw in spite of Kevin's warnings and breaks two legs just as a thunderstorm tears the house apart. Kevin runs away with the Claw. He becomes captain of the Greasy Bastard, a small ship carrying rubber goods between England and Burma. Michael Palin, Terry Jones, 1974
