Jim,

If you learned more about the jig fishery you would understand that the weighted lures that are used there provide action by fluttering down after being rapidly raised up. You can lift them slowly if you want but the idea is to get the flutter going as fast as possible and not waste your time on the way up. All of the strikes occur at or near the bottom of the flutter, and alot of the time a split second delay in going back up produces a strike. This is a common tactic used in many salt fisheries, btw.

I fished the fishery three mornings last year, limiting each time with my boat, and never had one fish hooked anywhere but in the mouth. I never saw anyone else with a snagged fish either which leads me to believe you are making an uninformed blanket statement out of ignorance, not fact. Oh, and there are better lures than buzz bombs if you truly pay attention to whats happening out there.
