Buzzbait for Tuna

[makaira]

Larry, on one of your shows I saw you using this bait. Where did you find it or did you make it yourself?

thanks

Hi M
I made it from a jet head w/feathers, two counter rotating buzz blades, a few beads, hyper wire split ring and a .060 stainless shaft with a 4/0 owner ST-66 treble.
Casts a mile, kicks up a ton of commotion, cranks easy, wide speed range, great hooker.
best,
L

Can you put the blades and beads on the leader and run the shaft from the split ring through the jet head to the hook or do the blades need to be on the shaft as well? Thanks.

hi b
I put the blades, head, beads, on a stainless shaft or 175# 49 strand wire and attach a hook with a crimp and split ring.
best,
L
