haha nice. yah i used them before when casting and retreiving but im wondering more so specifically on how they do when trolling around a lake? i suppose im worried about it being to heavy and dragging bottom to much . lol maybe im just over thinking it, who knows.

if set your boat to 0.5 mph and keep lifting and dropping your rod I SUPPOSE it could work on the troll ?????

If you are dragging it around it MIGHT snag or gut hook an unsuspecting fish ....... if you are LUCKY.

They are a fantastic laker jigging lure - that's really all I use them for.

i know when using them in the ocean the smaller sizes of buzz bombs work alright when trolling but i would rather jig or cast them so i can control the action a bit more. zingers are also used quite often in smaller sizes and they work better than a buzz bomb for trolling i find.
