I have to go with topwater.  Not that it catches the most fish for me but when i do hook one on top my adrenaline gets going, and makes me confident i can continue to hook up!

Definitely a T-rig.  My first fish on a lure was a T-rig with a 5" curly tail purple worm.  Freaken fish was a catfish though - a very bony small catfish in a lake with NO food source.  They were desperate.

My first bass on a lure was on a T-rig with a 4" red shad senko knockoff.  Since then, T-rigs have been my go to baits.

The 5' senko has to be my favorite.  I yet to find a color that I can't catch a fish with.

[ga_hawghauler]

t-rig or c-rig soft plastic in green pumpkin

[Bass Mekanik]

My top confidence baits would be 6" stickbait watermelon red/purple flake and t-rig black trickworm.

Carolina Rig and A Spinnerbait.

I would go for Chatterbait morning session and when temperatures pick up I would go for T rigged Senko and Mojo rigged senko in Green pumpkin watermelon laminate

year round go to bait for tough days...Green pumpkin senko, black with blue flake senko if water is dirty.

Man does nobody use a yo-zuri vibe? This is easily my #1, on the poll it had vibration and cranks together, but I dont fish them anywhere near the same, and consider the vibration to be more like a spinner bait than a crank. Anyway, silver green back yo-zuri vibe...cant beat them anywhere on a tough day. You can cover water, they come through cover really well, and will VIBE-rate the rod out of your hand. Won more $$ on one of these little jewels this past year than anything else.

FIN-S-R,

Yep, I use the Ratl'N Vibe. That's my #1 Rat-L-Trap type lure, too!

[Cigarlover 1]

I'll fish a green pumpkin senko anytime.

[T-rig]

Dark coloured creature plastics t-rigged. Allways have confidence in these!

[BassPonder72]

I absolutely slaughtered bass last year with my Rebel pop'r but, my confidence was in the color not the bait itself.  I now own several baits in this color and will throw them all with confidence this year.  Though I have never seen any baitfish in the waters I fish that resemble this color pattern bass couldn't resist it.  Rainbow with Gold fleck (g-fleck/rainbow).  Try this color out if you haven't.  Every fish I caught over 4lbs last year was on the pop'r in this color.  I had to buy several due to the color coming off from repeated strikes.  I bought some torpedos and inline spinners in the same color for this year and will be stocking up on zara spooks in the same color.  The funny thing is I never would have picked this but, I was in BPS in Orlando last year and my wife fell in love with the pink & green color pattern.  Go figure.

I vote other...

Drop Shot, 4.5" Roboworm Straight Tail.

[BucketmouthAngler13]

YUM 4" green tube is near the top of my list along with wirebaits and cranks.

[Rattlinrogue]

I voted C-rig because I can always drag up some bass with it,They're not always big bass but such is life.If I could have voted for two,I'd have gone with a spinnerbait also.As with the C-rig,if you make enough casts you'll eventually catch bass.
