ERTOMUDD Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Sure different situations and conditions present the need to use different tackle, but what is your without a doubt, favorite and most successful lure? I "use" to always rely on my spinnerbaits. Don't get me wrong, I probably throw them more than anything else still to this day, maybe because I got too many too choose from, idk.. lol. BUT, I have recently really fell in love with different soft plastics as well as jigs. Recently, I have been having so much success with senkos and different worms that I am literally forming an addiction I feel like lol. My fiance says I have bass fever right now haha, I say I'm just catching them, cant help it. I want to go back out and try again and again to see if the success and luck is still there. So for me, my go-to choice for right now; The senko, without a doubt. It seems to be very versatile and gives me a few ways to work it and most importantly for myself, confidence when I throw it. 1 Quote
loudcherokee Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 I had an old Pop-R that I used to call old faithful, but lately Ive been really liking catching fish on soft plastics. I'll always throw a spinnerbait everytime I go out, in one or more colors, but usually black n blue. LC Quote

How did you rig it? Quote
aquaholic Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 weightless texas rigged senko, gets them everytime, all the time. Quote
ERTOMUDD Posted August 26, 2013 Author Posted August 26, 2013 How did you rig it? T-rig with no weight most of the time Quote

Arv Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Stick worm - usually a BPS Stick-O now. But GY Senkos and Yum Dingers are all about the same to me. Either weighless t rig or wacky rig, sometimes on a wacky jig head if I feel that they are more aggressive or I want to fish faster. Quote
hookedahawg Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 This year my absolute go to is the zmans chatterbait. Thats what caught my "once in a lifetime" fish. But I always seem to do well with a chatterbait. 1 Quote
bassmaster99 Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Dirty jigs swim jig with a rage craw trailer and a strike king elaztech finesse worm on a shakey head. Quote
Super User rockchalk06 Posted August 27, 2013 Super User Posted August 27, 2013 Brown Craw jig from North Star with a Falcon Lake Rage Craw. If there are fish in my area, I will have some luck. It would be a close 2nd with an old Rebel PopR in sliver/black. This thing has been lost, found, hell I've gone swimming for this lure for over 10 years. My dad gave this to me once and it's one of the only things from him I have left. Quote

If I don't get any action my next lure is a bomber shallow A in redapplecraw. Quote

mddrew88 Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Lately I've gotten really into plastic swimbaits. The area where I fish has an overpopulation of bluegill and those imitations really do the trick when nothing else gets a bite. Quote
Broc Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Double willow blade spinner, copper blades in stained water, silver in clear... dont really care much about the skirt color, but usually use green/combination. Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted August 27, 2013 Super User Posted August 27, 2013 In the lake I have been fishing lately, it's been a 3/8 black jig with a small black trailer of some kind. Quote
Zach Dunham Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Spinnerbaits! They come in so many colors, sizes, and varieties and can be fished so many different ways. I love the versatility. Quote
Topwaterspook Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 My "go to" is a medium running square billed crankbait in various colors. Quote
churchcc12 Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 My go-to lure has to be either a 3/8 oz green pumpkin jig, or a white spinnerbait. I really like the Terminators, but all of them are good in my opinion. Quote
Walleye2Bass Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 Discounting water temperature, water clarity etc. I always have a lipless crank bait tied on. Rattle-Trap would be my favorite, but any will do. I have caught more fish on that bait than any other (Bass, bluegill, walleye, pike it catches just about anything). I also should mention that it probably has a lot to do with my A.D.D. I hate to just stand still and worm/finesse fish, not that I won't but I like something to do... Quote
Basshammer Posted August 31, 2013 Posted August 31, 2013 Go To Lure: It has got to be home made jig with a netbait craw chunk. Quote
29JMP29 Posted August 31, 2013 Posted August 31, 2013 swing jigs or spinnerbaits, both of them work all year long Quote
