If you could only fish ONE lure the rest of your life....

Spinnerbait!

[The_Natural]

I love cranks to death...so it is hard for me to say, but I would go with a jig.  It's just too versatile and works too often.  Winter, Prespawn, Summer, fall...the jig is always a go.

1/4 Black/Red Terminator Pro Top Secret Jig

[bassrogue]

Soft plastic frog

You can work it on the top or on the bottom. Or use different weight hooks or retrieve speeds to swim it down deep or shallow. There are alot of ways to modify and rig a frog

Color?  Not sure......bullfrog.....black/blue...... :-/

This is a great thread for suggestions to add to your collection, but if any of you guys know anything about Catt's fishing results, this is a bait YOU NEED TO GET! I know I am.

[smcentee]

Lucky Craft Wander 80. This bait has the most unique and diverse action of any bait I've used. Moves like a worm, falls like a senko, give it a jerk and it's a minnow on acid, can be fished as a topwater and a subwalker. Covers the water column from top to bottom. They're becoming hard to find.

reaction innovations trixie shark bad shad green

[Mid-MO]

1/2 ounce black and blue jig.  Jigs can be fished anywhere (open water structure, points, heavy cover, rock, etc), any season, at any speed, at any depth (including swimming it).  

If you are just going to use one thing - this would allow as much versaitility as anything.

Anybody remember the Bassmaster article  a few years back on the guy who only threw a Devil's Horse - year around?  It was a pretty interesting read.

Looked everywhere for these Catt. Can't hunt them down.

I need a good ringworm.

I looked for them on the Gene Larew site too.  Catt, are these some old stock that are out of production now?

[Davis]

ebay only has a lot of 3 right now.

In red shad color.

I have no need for three packs. That would last me forever.

[Joe. S]

Jig and trailer, pretty much all I fish anyways ;D

[Siebert Outdoors]

[Grey Wolf]

SPINNERBAIT.

You can fish it any speed and depth you want.

1/4 oz spot remover pro with zoom finesse worm (junebug).....going to give some *** finesse worms a try (just got em)

[Popeye]

A Vibra-Bat.  Just kidding:o) I have a nice collection of them but they are not for usage. I'd probably go with a Texas rigged 6-7" worm or a jig and trailer. Dang, and I REALLY like Hula Poppers and JitterBugs too!

[island bassin]

tandem terminator chart/white spinnerbait ,size 1/2

[Avalonjohn44]

A Trickworm, because you can fish it wacky, t-rigged, weightless, shaky, and on and on.
