lol who knows..... In the delaware, the only small fish we have here are the perch and ive never caught ANYTHING off of cut perch. People cut and throw them in all the time but i have never seen anyone catch anything off of cut fish near me. props to you
Cichlid fiend yesterday i bought another buzzy. hit two bass this morning going around the lake. had a huge fish follow it until it saw me. biggest of the day was a chunky 14 incher that weighed only a bit more than a pound.
The buzzy wouldnt have worked yesterday afternoon though, the fish were deeper. the temperature was in the mid 19 and they didnt like it!!!
Planet nicolas i will be 15 on the 17 of august, i feel your pain i will get some bday mioney. i had to buy some fishing stuff, rod, tippet, buzzy, hooks etc so atm i am in debt 12 bucks. i am still happy though cuz i have everything i want.
a lake a few poles some nice lures and fish!
PS i bought a new excursion shakespeare rod. It was the cheapest spinning rod i could find!!!

P4P be carefu. The buzzy can get very addictive!! That's one bait I get stuck on but when the water stays above 75 the fish seem to only like in the early morning and very late in the evenings.
Planet nicolas i'll be hitting up the smallmouth spot you put me onto today!!!

I highly recommend the Booyah Buzzbait. It has a small piece of metal in front of the blade that 'claps' when the blade and the metal collide. It's got a much sharper buzz in the water. It definitely seems to attrack larger fish. The pike will hit it pretty hard too.

XechoX, thats the type of buzzbait i bought at first. i bought it because of as bill dance movie where he mentioned the clacker.
Yesterday i was going to the check out line with a strike king buzzy but i saw how cheap it looked and ran back to exchange it for the booyah clacker. It worked earlier today!
I knocked it out of whack when i had to pull it out from some drift wood but i bent it back and it works fine again.

I hate the booya clicker buzzy, I perfur the 2.99 strike kings that dicks sporting good sells hanging from a tag(no box)!
FWI- posting and driving is mad dangerous!!

I fish buzz baits quite a bit. I have found that size and color do play a role in the bite, but another notable factor is the sound the propeller makes.
The Booyah buzz bait has a loud, sharp 'click' when you pull it through the water at a decent pace. I find that it attracts larger, or more aggressive fish. If the fish are moving slow or are being more cautious then I'd switch to something more subtle.
It's also good to compare top speeds. In other words, how fast do you need to pull the buzz bait in order for it to sputter. You have to move the Booyah buzz baits along at a good pace, which fits their profile - loud, fast, and attracts aggressive fish, but that's not to say slower moving buzz baits don't work.
I also have a cheap Northland? buzz bait that I like to fish when its really calm. It is much lighter and the propeller is much wider than the booyah, so you can pull it much slower and it still stays at the surface and sputters. Works great when its calm and you don't need the extra noise or speed.
They all have their uses. You just need to find out which types are working that particular day. Overall though, I'd say buzz baits are one of the most fun lures to fish for bass and pike/muskies. Lots of action.
Tequila;4339999; said:Did a bit of fishing myself today and yesterday in the D & R canal. Sorry didn't have a camera with me and my cell cam lens is cracked. I didn't get much to speak of on Saturday, just a few small Bass and had a few CP take a shot at the ragetail. Now on Sunday I got two decent size Bass, one on a Spinnerbait almost 3lbs and the other on a Ragetail, about 2.8lbs. The one on the spinnerbait almost pulled the rod out of my hand, because it hit just as I started to lift the spinner out of the water. All in all I had a nice time, I gotta get back to the city in the morning though.
WHat part did you go to?
Spots fished-1
Time fished-2.5 hrs
Fish landed-I-8/Bjay-3/Cliff-0
Well I got a tip from another MFK'er about a smallmouth spot, so i did some research about it. Someone wrote on it saying the lake has nothing but sunnies, SMB, and carp in it.
SO I was siked up about going to a pond with smallies in it, around here there is only like four lakes to get smallies. I usually get some from the river and also the D&R canal.
Anyway we find it and begin at 6:15. We all start out with the buzzy we all had a few little blow ups but it only take one trip around for me to realize that that wasnt the ticket. I put on the spinny and that was the piece of the puzzle cause I landed the first two fish of the day BUT they were both largemouth. We all were dissappointed but I didnt mind cause I went on to land 6 more and missed about 3. Cliff crazy behind didnt put the buzzy down and he didnt get anything(the water is too hot). Bjay copies me and puts the white spinny on and landed two small ones but he missed a very nice one that jumped off about 3 feet from the shore, Ill say it was every bit of three and a half pounds.
I like the new spot but there isnt any smallies in there!!
