Tubes and senkos. Buy a couple different bullet weights and hooks and go fishing. Once you get catching pick up a couple spinnerbaits and some in line spinners. Once you are comfortable with those pick up a few crankbaits and topwater baits. Once youve got those covered you will meet the baimonkey and its over for you. Keep your baits simple. Hetes what i would suggest:
tubes-strike king coffee tubes 3.5" brownish green
senko- green pumpkin black flake 4"
spinnerbaits- booyah 3/8 chartheuse/white willow willow
in line spinner- mepps anglia or roostertail
crankbait- rapala dt, shadrap
topwater- zara super spook jr, black jointed jitterbug
stay away from the baitmonkey for a while because you will just get confused. buy a bait, use it, get another bait.
