Try a black buzzbait, Randy. Attach a spinner blade behind the buzzprop to
slow it down to a crawl. You can probably straighten the bent wire behind
the prop, replace the rivet with a beat, and have enough to bend into a loop
to clip on an inline blade attachment. Be sure to use a trailer hook, too.

Well I went out again last night, after the rain storm the lake was flat
calm so I opted to once again go with the jitterbug, Taking Rich Z's advice
I slowed it down and what a difference. 7 good bass in about two hours.
Still had a bunch of fish that completely missed it, sometimes multiple
times. I even had 3 that came off after the initial strike, every fish was
hooked on the rear treble. I'm going to try swapping out the hooks. Thanks

I don't night fish, but the Jitterbug is by far my favorite topwater. If
you
don't already do so, I highly recommend adding split rings and replacing
the
factory hooks.

Went out last night for some after dark fishing. Had quite a few fish
blow
up on the jitterbug, only two keepers and about 6 fish that came
unbuttoned.
Could not figure it out for the life of me. Tons of fish just missed it
completely. I don't do much night fishing, it was frustrating as hell
