Lees Compact Baitfish Buzzer “The Most Compact Buzzbait Ever”
Here is why to choose a baitfish colored buzzbait:
- Best Bright/Low-Light Option: A baitfish lure with a translucent skirt or a white with colored skirts along with our scientifically cupped and pitched prop provides the sharpest, most defined silhouette for a fish looking up at a bright sunny sky or in stained water.
- Effective in Stained/Clear Water: When visibility is good (better than 2 feet), baitfish colors offers a high-contrast profile compared to darker colors.
- Ideal for Clear or Cloudy/Overcast Days: It is a go-to color for cloudy or rainy conditions, creating a clear target.
- Mimics Natural Prey: baitfish colors mimic common forage items that are foraging on the surface.
Top Techniques & Retrieval for Lees Compact Baitfish Buzzer
- The “Instant Start”: Close your bail as the lure hits the water and begin reeling immediately to keep it from sinking and to engage the props “gurgling” action right away. This instant start works well with Lees Compact Baitfish Buzzer, keeping the prop buzzing quickly above the water.
- Speed Control: Retrieve as slowly as possible while still maintaining that “plop-plop-plop” surface sound. If fish are aggressive, “burn” the bait with a high-speed retrieve. The unique features of the White Baitfish Baby Buzzbait™ allows anglers to maintain a slow speed controlled with ease.
- Deflect Off Cover: Purposefully bump the lure into dock posts, stumps, or weeds to trigger reaction bites. Anglers love how the W-Baitfish Baby Buzzbait™ can deflect off cover and entice fish.
- Parallel the Bank: Cast parallel to the shoreline or grass edges to keep your bait in the strike zone longer. By paralleling the bank with a Baby Buzzbait™, you maximize strike potential.
