I may start a war here but what are some of your favorite bait company's and baits?

Djman72 reply : 

I love zoom baits, they are cheaper than most and catch just as many fish. As for types, trick works, flukes, and most of their creature baits.

 

Love Rebel Pop-r's and anything rapala is almost always quality but $$$. I like strike king spinnerbaits and for roosters the only choice is mepps. Senko's are my goto stick baits but again, $$$. I like a lot of what lake fork makes I always seem to catch quality fish with their bait.

Jrob78 reply : 

If I had to pick one hard bait company and one soft bait company to cover all my fishing, I would go with Lucky Craft and Zoom.  I generally make my own jigs and prefer War Eagle spinnerbaits.

Preytorien reply : 

I like Megastrike, Netbait, and Siebert Outdoors probably the best. Great results with them and they make high quality products.

mjseverson24 reply : 

I do like a ton of baits on the market, but if i look at the ones that i most often grab and have confidence in it would probably go...

1) berkley havoc, specifically the pitboss, crawfatty, bottom hopper, sick fish, and slop craw...

2) strike king, specifically the rodent, dreamshot, rage craw, rage chunk, and the shimmy stick...

3) yum, specifically the mighty bug, dinger, wooley bully, and the shakelicious...

 

i use other brands as well like net bait, LFT, BYCB, big bites, zoom, and missile, but the ones up top get the most love from me...

Not counting rods and reels, this covers ~90% of what I use.

roadwarrior reply : 

Hmm...

 

Anyone that did not include MegaSrike, Siebert, NorthStar, YUM or Rage Tail is missing the boat.

Our sponsors offer some GREAT products and service. I hope you give them a shot.

wnybassman reply : 

For the last couple years about 80% of what I use I make myself, so I am pretty partially to that brand. lol       I still buy crankbaits/jerkbaits/hard swimbaits and have settled on Strike King for the most part.  Spro frogs, Super Spooks and Zell Pops fill the topwater box.  About the only plastics I still buy are BPS Tender Tubes.
