I throw soft plastics or jigs/plastic trailers about 90% of the time. The biggest exception, is spinnerbaits.

biggest reason is i fish from the bank and get hung up too much...plus it's a confidence thing with plastics

If I didn't own any hardbaits, I think I'd catch as many fish as a I do now.  Hardbaits for me are interesting.  But I don't think there isn't a soft substiture for any hardbait I have.

Yep.  90% soft plastics & jigs to 10% hardbaits.  Ask me a year ago, it would be the exact opposite.  Just stepping outside of my comfort zone to learn something new each year.

The lake I usually fish has lots of weeds and lily pads so I'm pretty much forced to fish weedless baits.

I am also almost always fishing from shore which limits my choices.

I would say 90% of my fishing is done with soft plastics and the other 10% coming from spinnerbaits and rattletraps.

I usually use spinnerbaits for locators, but after finding some fish, I usually slow down and start working soft plastics.  If I don't catch anything on spinnerbaits, I typically go to plastics anyway after an hour or so,  and start worming areas that I think the fish should be. I seldom use crankbaits and jerkbaits this time of year.  I know I'm probably missing out on alot of fish.
