But remember that it HAS to have a white bottom because that's what color jitterbugs are in the wild.

Your not adding anything smart [censored]!

Biggest on a buzzbait 4 pounds, 7 & 1/2 on a spinnerbait, 8 on a bagleys ratfink topwater, 11 on a 6” ribbon tail worm, and 12 pounder on a tiny torpedo! I don’t know how to load pics on this site, I’ve caught 10 times as many on the jitterbug vs the buzzbait

I don't think bass are stupid enough to eat jitterbugs anymore. And it's hard to think of a reason jb over bb, maybe fishing at night it was so fun to hear it chugging away in the dark.

Stop and go retrieve only a jb
Tune the blades so the jb skitters

It’s all good both are great baits
But there’s pro’s and con’s

I caught a nice bass on a wake bait today, first ever on that lure. It’s a pretty cool topwater lure too. Does not come through floating leaves well.

The JB and BB each have their pros and cons depending on the situation.

Catching fish never gets old.

I catch a lot of fish on the large Jitterbug.
