Well the buzz bait spits water like lie a skier . The other does the normal jitter bug thing with all those tentacles waving around . I actually haven't worked up the nerve to fish it long enough to let something grab it. Lure loss syndrome I guess . They were a pain . The first ones always are.

Jsc here is a hint. the buzz bait is considered the first hard body bait . It was introduced in the 1800's. This design is older than either one of us old geezers . There is only one person I know who could almost recite the whole story off the top of his head.
