What do you like better? Why?
You can stop a jitterbug but buzzbaits sink You can bend the lips on a jitterbug for different action, up or down Or just one side to skitter the bait
What else?

There are weedless jitterbugs, and jitterbugs are just as big as any buzzbaits, just as big fish, besides big baits don’t equal big bass, Stevenson’s lake fork state record was caught crappie fishing with a minnow! I’ve seen lots of big baits catch a bass no bigger than the bait!

Goober what is the biggest bass you’ve ever caught? Curious because most of your post make no damn since. Please post pics of your mighty catches. I’m sure all would like to see

JB outshines the BB when CRiggin’ I use the micro Jitterbug on 4# test with a 2oz sinker above a 6' 2# leader on a ultralight 51/2 ft spinning rod , but only in the back of creeks in a canoe.
GOD is good!
