Tennessee pro Jake Lawrence showed off perhaps THE most dramatic buzzbait catch of all time in winning a Bass Pro Tour trophy in 2025, but that dramatic moment was just one of a slew of fish that Lawrence put in the boat that season courtesy of a buzzer. Matter of fact, the buzzing topwater approach is one of Lawrence’s go-tos almost all year round.
We caught up with the Mercury pro for a little tip session on his two favorite buzzbaits, and why/when/where he fishes them. Part 1 of a two-part series shows you why the Buckeye Lures Buzzerk and Buckeye G-Buzz are almost always on Lawrence’s deck.
