LIKE TO FISH WEEDS SO A ZOOM SUPER HOG AND 3/8 TUNGSTEN WEIGHT WORKS FOR ME!

Texas rig 7" Power worm in Plum or blue fleck. I have never found a lake they would not work on.

Tube bait as it so versatile and with its many different fall styles it always keeps the fish guessing.

Senko hands down, c-rig second. Senkos are super super versatile. I use it over milfoil and hydrilla, I c rig it, us it on beds, etcetcetcetcetcetc.

Never leave home without a 3/8-1/2oz Tungsten Flipping Jig on my deck, too versatile, flip it, pitch it, skip it, swim it, etc

Difficult to pick a single favorite, but if I had to choose, my favorite that I get the most enjoyment out of is a PopR. Can't beat a topwater lure for fun! Been using Pop'R's for a long time, mostly with good results so that's what I would pick.

My favorite for fish catching would be a jig, either something green pumpkin colored or black & blue, most usually with a Zoom chunk type trailer added.  Jigs IMO are a lure with the least limits, as they can be good to use in many situations, plus they seem to attract bigger fish! :)

Finesse spinerbaits no heavier than 1/4 oz. My all time favorite is a 1/8 oz. Stanley Baby Wedge. I realy wish more companies would add a 1/8 oz. model in there line ups. I use to love the Terminator 1/8 oz. Tiny- T but they don't make them anymore  :'(.

 ~beer~  I have found that I love the holow bodied frog, (Jackall Frogs or Spro or even Koppers) and it took the place as my favorite topwater (close second is the Yellow Magic Popper 3" model)

3/8 oz football head jig in green pumpkin, watermelon green flake, pumpkin skirt (tie those myself from a simple kit) and probably a rage craw or a paca chunk jr  for pitching or dragging around

All time favorite, though- I can't remember the last time I didn't have a Zoom Magnum lizard on one of my rods, no matter what time of year it was.  Any color as long as it is watermelon chartreuse w/red flake.  Fish it topwater, weightless on mats, t rigged light around docks, stumps, and heavy to dredge the ledges- C Rig, whatever.  they catch fish.  I would have to say that is the one lure I would not want to ever ever be without. ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM LI-ZARD!!  They are fun.

Buzzbaits, followed by tubes. Fun and fish catching ability.

Old Fishermen never die, their rods just go limp.

Damiki Hydra rigged Neko.  It is my top producer by far.
Some people say doing the same thing over and over again, all the while expecting a different result is the definition of insanity.  I just call it fishing.

Love the Zoom Horny Toad.  Can be fished a TON of different ways.  I almost always just cast and reel on top.  But it can be pitched, punched, swam, dragged, hopped anything.  Just a great lure and almost nobody (including myself) uses them to their potential.
Life's short, fish hard.

Favorites do sometimes change.  Guess it depends on a bunch of factors, but still going to have the lizard tied on 24/7.  Weeds, rocks, clay, rivers, ponds, lakes, summer, spring, winter.  One of Uncle Homer's last few articles was about lizards and how he caought most of his biggest bass on them.

My favorite lure would have to be my black midstream spinner 3/4.  I have caught more Big mouth Bass on that they anything... ;PEP)  also any lure that is dark and looks like a crawfish seems to work good too...

Facepunch

All time is a rapala J7. It doesn't usually catch big fish, but 2/3/4/5 lbers love it. Now I've got a couple grand worth of swimbaits that I lob lol. My favorites are probably hudds, trash fish, big rats/wakes, and glide baits.

NickIL

Early morning buzzbait and crankbaits (Fat Free Shad).

Buzbait88

Football jig with a blade(vibrashock) is still my favorite.  I make my own now, but man I catch a lot of fish on that bait!

Well someone beat me to it. But my number 1 is a 6" Lizard. Number 2 crankbait.

The last year it's been a toss up between the North Star salsa flip n swim jig and the Mistake flip n swim. Both running the Berkley Subwoofer trailer. Both are killing bass all year long, any water and any temp.

In the summer it's gotta be those or a Rebel PopR in chrome black. Between these 3 baits, they account for 95% or so of the bass I've caught this year.

Plastic worm for me.

Just something about feeling that thump.

A jig. I have a jig tied on whenever I'm on the water. The head style, weight, skirt color, and trailer allow me to adapt my jig and any conditions and cover. I have the confidence that I will be able to get bit with a jig when I'm not getting bit on anything else.

Yep, and since I've started to make my own I'm getting better at using them. I just like the blow ups on a buzzbait and a tube has been a real go to, often on a jig. But I won't argue their versatility Bo, unless I want to lose.
