NEW LOUDBUZZ Buzzbait from Ever Green and Diawa
Russ Chastain 03.04.21
A recent press release from fishing tackle giant Diawa tells fishermen about a new buzzbait fishing lure called the LOUDBUZZ. New for 2021 from Japanese lure designer Ever Green, the LOUDBUZZ is made to track straight, fish well at any speed, and (naturally) be LOUD while doing it. They say the formula for success is the offset aluminum propeller mounted with aluminum rivet on a stainless steel shaft. Fishing pro Cody Meyer is a fan, according to the press release:
“Daiwa and Ever Green pro Cody Meyer is a big fan of the new LOUDBUZZ, having caught countless fish on the MLF Tour thanks to its premium, fish-attracting performance.
Meyer comments: “For starters, the name is LOUDBUZZ, and it’s extremely loud. I’ve always liked loud buzzbaits, not the quiet ones. With the LOUDBUZZ you really aggravate the fish and draw them in from a far distance and thick cover. Second off, because of the keel design, the LOUDBUZZ always tracks straight and looks more natural, and the hook-up ratio is really, really good because of the way it tracks. A lot of buzzbaits will track off to the side, to the right or left, not so with the LOUDBUZZ.’
‘The LOUDBUZZ also tracks straight and spits a lot of water at slow speeds. Most buzzbaits on the market you have to really crank to get that blade moving and keep the bait on the surface. The way the LOUDBUZZ is designed with the big blade and the whole head configuration, you can work it slow and keep it on top. It also features a premium hook, and I feel like we nailed it with the colors for any fishing situation. And all of the skirts are hand-tied. I’m just super impressed. It’s really a deadly buzzbait—everything I’ve been looking for in one and more.’“
Daiwa Field Marketing Manager, Marc Mills, says their design goal was “extreme volume and accuracy in tracking and solid hookups in a bait design that would draw strikes whether worked fast or slow.” Mills adds that the shape of the head is an important feature which may go unnoticed at a glance, but it works together with the angle and design of the blade to work well when fished fast or slow. The Ever Green 3/8-ounce LOUDBUZZ has an MSRP of $16.99 and will be available in these 8 color patterns:
- Green Pumpkin
- Fire Craw
- White
- Black
- White Delight
- Chartreuse Shad
- Clearwater Shad
- Golden Shiner
