Exactly.

5dollarsplash reply :

Jig with craw trailer, and I'll be a oddball and say frog.

There are times in open water I've seen a splash and thrown to it and gotten a hook up on the frog, and you can throw it anywhere.

The Young Gun reply :

Spinnerbait, can fish above weeds, down low and slow roll it. Any color water. I just always have confidence in a spinnerbait

Fish_Whisperer reply :

Texas rigged plastics for sure, whether it be weightless or weighted. Various weights and types of plastics, depending on what I "think" they want. Depending on the cover, i'll fish a frog or jig. In open water around structure I like to give em a unskirted jig head with a grub.

Dcheek reply :

My favorite to fish are jigs with rage craw trailer!

cast_and_destroy reply :

I've had the most success with square bill crankbaits, texas rigged plastics and jigs.

james_oxley reply :

I have a lot of confidence in spinnerbaits, wacky rigged senkos, and jigs. Have them tied on every time I go fishing.

whitwolf reply :

For sheer numbers of fish: TX rigged plastics.

Mccallister25 reply :

Id have to say a jig or senko. I have at least one of the two(sometimes both) tied on every time I go out.

MarksHooked reply :

This is my first year getting REALLY into fishing, but in the short time i've had on the water, My favourite lures are definitely a Watermelon 5" senko-type worm with red flake, and recently learned to be effective with the Drop Shot Technique, and loved using Berkley's 3" Power Minnows.

Khong reply :

I love to T-rig a Rage Craw!!! Watermelon Pumpkin!

But when everything fails, Rapala Original Floater. This will always land fish!!! I don't know why, but it never fails me.

Templeton reply :

I would have to say a white buzzbait and a KVD 1.5 Squarebill Crank in Sexy Chart Shad color.

Bankbeater reply :

A jig with some kind of plastic trailer on it.

AK-Jax86 reply :

My top toad in either black, baby bass, or catapla

TWMstr reply :

Carolina rig (summer)

Jig/Texas rig (spring, fall, winter)

FrogFreak reply :

Here's what I typically have tied on and use in order of preference:

1. Koppers Live Target Frog, 55 or 65. Yellow or Green typically. Lately Yellow has been working.

2. Spinnerbait, usually in white. I fish clearer water so I use willow blades.

3. Crank bait or jerk bait. I usually throw Rapalas

4. Drop shot rig with a shad, worm, or tube.

5. Texas rigged worm

It's all about confidence and what the fish are telling you. I start out fishing a frog and when that stops working, I try faster more aggressive techniques and if that doesn't work, I slow down. I am trying to learn new techniques. Lately, I've been drop shotting and I love it, what a productive way to catch fish. Next, I'll work on jigging.

mddrew88 reply :

My favorite lure to fish with would have to be various sizes of Rebel Pop-R. There's nothing like topwater bass fishing, its the best.

Having said that, I would feel real silly if I didn't at least give a texas rigged plastic or a crank a chance in the water. Not the most exciting way to catch bass but they're definitely more productive in my opinion for catching good numbers of fish.

Robert Oakden reply :

This time of year in New York all I use is roboworms. Texas rigged or dropshot. Aaron's magic is my favorite color

stratoliner92 reply :

Another vote for T-rig. Most time a 3/16.oz with 7.5" worm is in hand or close by ;-)

this, and a wacky rigged senko.

stkbassn reply :

Swimbaits, spinnerbaits, jig and pig...

Fishes in trees reply :

My current favorite bait is my home made jika rigs/ baited with a brush hog or a zellemander lizard.

Month of July stats are as follows. 4 July trips. Jika rig - 17 keepers (15" and up, largest a 21" 5 lb or so fish) and an additional 40 or so slot fish (12" to 15") All other rigs, (deep & shallow cranks, spinner baits, chatter baits, Eakins Jig, tx rigged senko, wacky rigged senko, rattle trap type bait) 40 or so slot fish, 1 keeper (17" on tx rigged senko)

My home made jika rigs weigh out from 13 to 17 grams, which is roughly 3.8 to 5/8 oz. All the keeper fish came from 10 to 17 feet of water. The majority of the slot fish were a little shallower.

SwampLife reply :

Favorite thing to throw is a spinnerbait/chatterbait or swim jig..

My Most productive and confidence bait is zoom baby brush hog 4/0 hook and a 1/8 tungsten weight..
