Your #1 confidence bait- vote here

[Shadcranker]

Write in votes welcomed. I did not include swim baits, creatues, craws, flukes, jigging spoons, chatterbaits, etc. Couldn't fit everything.

I realize that it depends on conditions and time of year, but for this, let's assume it's late spring, stable weather, and the fish will cooperate with most any presentation.

I gotta go with the tube.  I feel like I can always catch something with a small Zoom watermelon/gold tube.  Heck, I even try and buzz'em sometimes.

A buzzbait all the way!

[BassFishingMachine]

I have a tremendous amount of confidence using any type of topwater, from a buzzfrog to a skitter pop. I will throw any topwater with great confidence.

Since you didn't add the creature baits then I chose Buzzbaits.  Can't go wrong there.
