21xdc Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 I'm looking for beads like the Strike King swinging sugar buzz bait uses. I'd prefer clear or silver... Their bleeding bait also uses them.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Why do you want to use them? I'm just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21xdc Posted September 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 They don't wrap weeds around like a round bead does.... It helps shed weeds away from the blade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigmeister Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 Are these beads glass or plastic ? If so you can definitely find them online searching sites that sell beads for jewelry making . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted September 22, 2019 Report Share Posted September 22, 2019 That makes sense. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbor Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 i much prefer a flat type head vs a cone. Alot of buzzbaits have a heavy feel as u DRAG them thru the water. I prefer the buzzbait to float up a little and feel lighter so its easier on me and i can go slower the a louder plop plop plop. Just like i do not like the off center out of balance blades. Stanley buzzbaits do pretty good. I was useing them way back and nothing came close at the time. Also when they quit running good, you have to close the gap inbetween the prop and the wire frame to get them running good again. just my .02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing in your link is anything I can use. I don't have any trouble with my baits dragging in the water, They come to the surface immediately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
