What’s your most successful lure?

[Sissyfishing]

I would say it’s a beatle spin cos I fished farm ponds and small lakes for decades, I lived on a farm and fished every evening for two yrs except when it was cold, lots on worms and top waters too!

[BrianMDTX]

I can honestly say I’ve caught more bass on a 5” Senko wacky rig with a 1/0 circle octopus hook than all other lures combined. 

[Sissyfishing]

I’ve fished senko’s very little never had a fish on one, confidence is a big factor I guess

[Jig Man]

It depends on the time of the year, the lake, the water level, the water temp, and the weather.  I prefer spinner bait, Zero, and Ned but I will use nearly anything.

[J Francho]

Over the years, Rebel Deep Wee-R, 7" Powerworm, 5" Slugg-o, 5" Senko, Spinnerbait, Popmax, Rage Craw, and jigs have consistently outfished all other baits I've tried.  I don't really fish the first three anymore, and I'd wager to bet that one of the reasons I doid so well with them is that I fished them almost exclusively back on the the late 80s and early 90s.  In the case of the Rebel, that's especially true.  These days, I'm a little more diverse.

For volume of fish crankbaits easily win.

Without a doubt a Senko type bait.  You pick the brand it doesn’t matter much.  Catch bass of all size on it, and have caught a bunch of peacock!

[Sissyfishing]

I think you can catch just as many on inline spinners, sassy shads, white single tail grubs, and beatle spins, but aging north Texas riprap not a lot of creyfish or crawdaddies mostly small shad

[WRB]

Bass caught per man hours fished the plastic worm, not even close for numbers.  

Number of big bass caught over 8 lbs the pig n jig, nothing comes close for numbers of big bass. 2nd would be big Swimbaits.

I haven’t tie one of these on in a long time but I’d like to have $0.10 for every smallie I’ve caught on Rebel Craw ( various sizes and patterns ).

 

No BP’s off of it. But you are not saying how you are measuring success. I’m talking shear numbers. 

[brrbass]

I love to jig fish, flipping, pitching, deep structure, and so forth. When I was younger I would fish a spinner bait all the time. Most exciting way for me is buzzbait fishing. 

[Dwight Hottle]

For smallmouth hands down it is a jerk bait. Produces big fish & numbers. Largemouth favorite is a lipless crank with the red eye shad by Strike King being my favorite. It's produced two PB's for me.

Bass or all fish?

 

Id like 10 cents for every trout I caught on a Panther Martin. Great in-line spinner. 

[Catt]

For both quantity & quality!

 

Texas Rigged Plastics ?

 

Gene Larew 7 1/2" Ringworms in Cinnamon Pepper Neon Junebug Laminate has produced over a dozen double digit bass across 5 states.

 

[Sissyfishing]

I remember rung worms. You remember mister twister blood worms?

[Hook2Jaw]

Goodness.

 

My most productive numbers lure is the YUM 5" Dinger.  I've caught so many on them I keep them in my back pocket for putting a fish in the boat.  The technique has become boring to me.

 

My most productive quality lure is a half ounce jig with a floppy craw on the business end.  I love this style of fishing.

 

My most productive "today sucks" is a straight tailed finesse worm on a ⅛oz shakyhead.

[Mobasser]

By far it's a light T rig plastic worm. Various worms and weights up to 1/4 oz. Fished slow

[Bankbeater]

Since I got back into fishing about 15 or 16 years ago, I have caught the largest bass on a jig and craw. Fishing just for numbers I have to say that a mid size storm subwart has been by best bait. 

[KYRANGERMAN]

No question . . . spinnerbait.

[DitchPanda]

For anything I'd say a 2 inch white twister tail grub. I've had days when I've caught hundreds of fish in a day on them.

For bass I'd say a spinnerbait or the past few years a swim jig.

For big bass I'd say a jig.

 

[MassYak85]

Green pumpkin stick worm, spinnerbait, and in the summer a 10 inch power worm t rigged.

[Bigassbass]

Blue Fox inline spinner, I've caught dinks and lots of 5,6, pound bass on that lure!  Been fishing it for 30 years.

[jimmyjoe]

   Bass? Spinnerbait.

   All species? Mepps Aglia.       jj

Ridiculous. This has been the #1 bait for decades.
