2014 Go To Lure 2024
FishTank reply :
Do you have a new go to lure for this year?
For me personally, I have been sticking to the same old stuff> Lucky Craft crank baits, Senkos, and Zoom Lizards
Mccallister25 reply :
My go to lure is a jig
New to this year for me is a spook. Its put not only numbers in my bag, but also weight. Some quality fish have been landed this year because of my super spook jr.
Avalonjohn44 reply :
Roboworm on the dropshot for me.
PersicoTrotaVA reply :
A jig and the wacky rig.
PondHopper96 reply :
It'd have to be 12 inch ribbon tail for me!
dam0007 reply :

What color? What technique ? Just curious
Catch and Grease reply :
I started using shakey heads this year and they have saved me many times from getting skunked lol...
Catt reply :
Sorry Big-O 
Bass Assassin's New Tapout Worm, enhanced wirh liquid salt & infused wirh Bang Scent Formula.
It's basically a fat Trick worm!
GADawgs reply :
For me it has been a jig
Jon G reply :
Siebert Outdoor Fogy with a 4 inch Keitech Swing Impact
David D. reply :
Dropshot rigged with a roboworm and a Rage Tail Bug. Both have been killing fish for me lately; even when nothing else can draw a nibble.
Kevin Beachy reply :
pro poppin frog ishes poppin phattie
Jar11591 reply :
This year the majority of my fish have come on a Rage Tail baby craw.
nascar2428 reply :
Been having a lot of success with the megastick this year, however my go to or fail safe will always be a weightless t rigged Senko.

It's just going to depend on your home water. You have to let the fish tell you what they want. For me I've always done well on a green pumpkin senko with either purple flake or purple and green flake.
Primus reply :
Versatility is my go to presentation. Different baits/ techniques for the various seasons and taking into consideration lake type & weather conditions.
Felix77 reply :
My mojo rig with finesse worm is still my go-to! Expanding to include a drop shot.
Will Wetline reply :
I've added the Duo Realis Spin Bait 80 to my go-to list.
I fish very clear water for smallmouth.

Green Flash which is a DSG exclusive color, wacky rigged with a size 1 Mustad double wide hook. Go through about 3 bags of worms and 3 packs of hooks each outing, but manage a limit fairly quick on lakes, not so much rivers. Anyhow I throw em on a ML rod wacky rigged. Cast and do nothing, once line starts moving I sweep to the side slow and steady to get the hook into the corner of the mouth. My hookup ratio has been 99.9999% Using the double wide hooks not only did my hook up ratio skyrocket but I stopped gut hooking them.
Edit* Refer to my avatar lmao
NJSalt reply :
Majority of my fish from the bank have come on a Red Dirt Bladed Jig with a Rage craw trailer yo-yoing it through grass. Had some quality fish on it so far, especially at night.
Bank4Bass reply :
Manns jelly worm and my ol faithful 1/2oz white/chartreuse spinnerbait
jtharris3 reply :
3/8 oz. T1 Terminator Spinner bait, chart/blue/wht with double willow blades or the Zoom Super fluke in white ice or pearl. I've probably fished both equally as much this year.
BasshunterJGH reply :
For me it's been the zoom horny toad in green pumpkin. Any lake w/ clear water and cover it just plain catches fish better than anything else.
joeeagles36 reply :
football jig black blue with Berkley havoc pit boss and gained a lot of confidence in senkos also / watermelon black flk. and that jj's magic.
Primus reply :
This year the jig is my MVP so far as it's nabbed my 2 biggest of the season so far and my rookie of the year would be the Rage Bug .
IAY reply :
Fx knuckle sexy french pearl has done really well for me.
Brock Grigsby67 reply :
I would like to get better at catching them on a swim jig. But I'll probably just stick to what catches me fish, my zoom lizards and trick works
bassh8er reply :
The same lure it's been the last 5 years; Zoom Trick Worm.
OntarioFishingGuy reply :
A rapala DT14.
Siebert Outdoors reply :
I've got two for this year. I'd say 99% of my fish have come off of them.
Rage Menace with and Extreme Shaky head 1/4 oz
Big O Brush jig 1/2oz blue bug with a rage blue bug craw.
Fishing Cop reply :
The red Red Eye Shad. Works every time for me.
fishballer06 reply :
I've been having a lot of success on the Rapala BX Minnows. I also just got into fishing plastics after being a crankbait guy for years. So I guess you could add wacky rigged Senko's to my list.
*Hootie reply :
My new, never used it before lure is a 4" tube. Venom Tube to be exact. I had never fished any kind of tube before this year. I have been catching a lot of bass on that tube.

Schuyler co reply :
Been the year of the jig for me, 3/8 football jig with chigger craw hopping off bottom, green pumpkin...when weeds got up I started using a swim jig, siebert tournament in bluegill with green pumpkin chigger craw been slaying em
Crankinstein reply :
I've had two go to lures this year. Spro little john md in chrome olive and Megabass pop X in white python.
Brian6428 reply :
Black and blue jig. I started out using the strike king pro model jig , but I got some siebert outdoors jigs recently and they are better and cheaper than anything you can get from bass pro. 1/2 oz black/blue brush jig specifically.
TheSmilingSwordsman reply :
1. Siebert 3/8 oz Blue Craw Dredge Football Jig with a Berkley Pumpkin colored Chiggar Craw.
2. H2O Express Bluegill colored Squarebill crank.

Tubes are fantastic! Squirt some megastrike up inside of it.
5fishlimit reply :
Zoom finesse worm in black. Any lake, any day, any time.
For me, it just works.
papajoe222 reply :
Last year it was Square bills. This year it was a StrikeBack spinnerbaits, but the bite has really been unstable on any one presentation. The only 'new' bait I've been using is a white RageTail craw on a white 1/2oz. Swim jig. It's been my bIg fish presentation since post spawn and has put more of them in the boat for me than my old fav. a Zoom Ol Monster.
Arv reply :
Lots of wacky rigging/flick shaking for me
whitwolf reply :
Siebert outdoors brush jig (bluegill) with a R.I. smallie beaver trailer.
Siebert outdoors Zenith shakeyhead(3/16) tipped with Danny Joe Humphreys floating worm.
Zoom magnum finesse worm weightless.(black)
On a sidenote and not to derail the thread but when I started bass fishing many years ago black was the color I threw the most. I got away from that color for a number of years but this year in particular I am throwing It In almost all conditions and having great success.

hoosierbass07 reply :
I'm going back to the Texas Rig Yum-Dinger. I got away from it last year when I was using the split shot rig almost 99% of time. Except for one large bass, all other bass were on the small side. But two years ago all I did was use the Texas Rig and I did pretty good. So Texas Rig, here I come!
Bass2124 reply :
KVD 1.5 Blackback/chart crankbait, 6" BPS green pumpkin/magic pearl squirmin lizard, Black/blue flake Yamamoto senko, Zoom trick worms green pumpkin.
Robeng reply :
I used a couple of Livingston lures last year and out of the box>>BAM! Repeatedly caught fish that particular day. Next time out...nothing on that lure.
Anyone try the new Shadow Rap from Rapala?
Mainebass1984 reply :
The all mighty jig. It catches BIG bass. Very reliable lure for quality bites.
