Default Buzzers

Hi Folks,

Read somewhere about using different sizes and colours of buzzers for different times of year but cant remember when or what colour or size.

Anyone help me out with this as am about to start tying a few up for the coming season and want to make sure the box is well stocked.

Thanks in advance

On most waters you won't go far wrong with medium (12) to large (10) dark or black buzzers early and late season/winter. Once the water warms up and the spring/summer gets going, then so do the size and colour ranges, and it's really down to individual waters and local knowledge. See if you can get some info on the waters you intend to fish and take it from there. 14's and 16's will not be out of the question on occasion.... or 8's
