rondef reply :

The Rage Tail toads, I had more fun fishing them than any other bait last year.

TrippyJai reply :

Favourite for 08' would be the Fat Free Guppy in Citruse Shad colour.

Close 2nd would be a weightless 5' senko, but not much of a soft plastic person. I rather be casting all day or sitting there and fishing with live bait.

I need patients and concentration for slow fishing.

Micro reply :

The 4" Senko and Swim Senko produced the most fish for me in '08.

My favorite bait of '08 was the Sebile Magic Swimmer. It produced fewer fish, but on average the biggest fish of the year.

BassinSoldier reply :

The few times I was able to fish in '08, the cavitron buzzbait did the job for me (black with red blade). I was loving the rage tail toad too but in those few trips I ended up switching to the buzzbait because the fish would hit it too, and it doesn't have to be replaced every couple of fish. If the grass was too thick for the buzzer, then definitely the toads.

BARON49_Northern NY reply :

My favorite bait for the year hands down was the King Shad by Strike King, but I caught my most fish on a 1/2 oz Booyah Jig.

Jake. reply :

Jigs and custom crankbaits.

EastTexasBassin reply :

Well no surprise here-

GYCB Flappin Hog II - color 301 (green pumpkin with green & purple flake) T-rigged with a 3/0 Gammy EWG and a 1/4 oz green pumpkin tungsten weight.

My buddies get ticked when I bring out the flappin hog, cuz they know they're about to get schooled. On days when everyone else was skunked, the hog always prevailed.

Chris at Tech reply :

2008 was the year I introduced myself to the Lucky Craft Pointer.

Either 78 or 100 in chartreuse shad was the ticket for me.

Not a great year fishing for me in 2008, so I look forward to starting off 2009 with the LC Pointer on some largemouth and spots.

Fish the Fat Ika just like a Senko, same places, same retrieve.

Obviously, this bait has a different profile and different action

which works better some days than others.

NitroMan reply :

I can't really say I had a favorite lure but I can say I have a couple of favorites for 2009:

My #1 is the Rage Tail Toads and Shad

My #2 is a 12" Red Shad/Tequila Sunrise Culprit Original Worm

My #3 is an Enlure Deep Diving Crankbait in Firetiger: I caught my largest of the year on this lure, I paided a total of $0.01 for this lure on ebay. ;D

Vekol reply :

By far I caught the most fish on a Terminator 3/8oz spinnerbait in Blue Glimmer. I had the most fun though on white frogs thrown on weed mats.
