Your wheelhouse...

[Jaderose]

Frog in heavy slop.

[Scott F]

An unweighted, T rigged, senko in a river.  

[Log Catcher]

Crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and any Texas rigged soft plastic.

[NYWayfarer]

Stickbaits. Fished wacky, T or C rigged, Neko, whatever.

[Armtx77]

5" Senkos with the T-Rig.

[N Florida Mike]

Numbers : Smaller soft plastics.

Bigger fish: Larger soft plastics

The bait I have that consistently catches both are Zoom super flukes.

So guess what I use the most?

[Bird]

I really want to start throwing more soft plastics but the fish won't leave my Jerkbaits alone.......they've also been roughing up spinnerbaits. 

 

 

[Vilas15]

Paddle tail swimbaits, lipless cranks, jerkbaits

Bass bite in shallow warm water as well. I have caught +8 pound bass in water less than 5 feet deep during warm weather.

The majority of bass Ive caught over 5 pounds at ANY time was in less than 5 feet of water...

Bass in Florida like to in and around heavy aquatic vegetation so it is no surprise that many 5 pound or better bass are caught in these areas.

Swim jig, spinner bait, plastic swim bait(little dipper, keitech), weightless senko.

[DougHall_NY]

Swim jigs, soft plastics rigged on a 1/4 oz jig head and senkos.

[primetime]

Soft plastics...Texas rig, Carolina rig, split shot rig and weightless.

 

Also topwater-Walking baits, Frogs, Prop baits, Poppers & Floating Jerkbaits...I throw some type of floating Jerkbait every time I go fishing in any condition, I will modify them to fit situations with suspend dots, swap trebles, file lips etc....

 

I am most confident with either a Rapala Minnow,Jointed minnow for waking, or bomber long a, FLoating Rogue & Bagleys Bang o lure....And the gold/Chart jointed Rebel and a Red Fin. 

 

I recently started throwing the Duel Floating minnows as they have smaller 2-3" jerkbaits that cast a mile with awesome hooks. Also the Daiwa TD Minnow

If I'm serious about bass fishing I only take two rods - spinning, eight and six pound line, and Texas rigging soft plastics or split-shot soft plastics.  

[keagbassr]

Spinnerbaits, buzzbaits, and a double wide beaver on a punch rig.

[GreenPig]

I'd choose big swimbaits & frogs for big girls when fishing alone.

Super Fluke, Shakey Head, & petite spinnerbait if I want to show out or have a back seater.

 

[Black Hawk Basser]

I favor a jig more often than not. Only thing that stops me is too much slop.  If conditions are ideal for it, I get out a spinnerbait as much as possible.

 

In the river, I almost exclusively use squarebills.  They catch everything that swims there.

[JoePhish]

T-Rigged Soft Plastics 

Crankin' 1-10 ft

Jerkbaits

 

Honorable Mention: 

Wacky Rigged Stick Baits

Shakeyhead Worms and Stick Baits

Poppers

 

 

[river-rat]

Texas Rig 

Spinnerbait

1/2 oz. jig

 

I'd say those three are what I do best.
