If you only had 1 lure to use... 2024
Troutfisher reply :
Which one would it be? If you could only use one lure all day long, which lure? There are so many choices and opportunities for different lures, so choose wisely.
My choice? A medium sized black and silver rapala. It is versatile and can be used in almost any situation. 8-)
jrhennecke reply :
Probably a YUM Dinger. It can be rigged and fished enough different ways to make it versitile.
djmax22 reply :
Jig. I can catch fish all year around under just about any condition.
Grey Wolf reply :

Jig is my main lure all the time.
BillyBob reply :
On any day,... in any lake,... a black and blue 1/2 ounce football jig, with a light blue craw trailer. Theres better for any condition but none as good for all conditions!
John J. reply :
I would use a spinner-bait. You can helicopter it, hop it, swim it deep, shallow, wake it or buzz it! You can use natural colors in clear water and bright colors in murky water. You can fish it fast or slow roll it.
Micro reply :
6" Culprit worm in black and chartreuse.

Fish Chris reply :
Huddleston trout ROF #12, in regular, or holdover trout pattern is all I need, for most of my bass fishing. The exception to that being Spring sightfishing, where I might use a Huddlebug, or a 6" Hud, or a Basstrix Bluegill.
Peace,
Fish

Studies have proven that the plastic worm is the only lure made that a BASS CANNOT REMEMBER!

XbassmasterX reply :
Jigs can be fished in any time of the year or water condtions and for many different times of fish and is very versital baits aslo many different approches and could be very specific or general purposes ;D
Big-O reply :
Hey Troutfisher, I tend to agree with Maltese. You have posed a really tuff question. If I only had one bait and I haven't connected with the fish, my brain would fry thinking about all of the other baits and techniques that have proven themselves and that might work in any given water that I am covering. At my age thats not healthy, I might have a nervous breakdown or something. Now you wouldn't want that to happen to one of us now would you? I think an interesting question might be phrased " In _____ lake, during the ____ of the year, with water temp being _____, with a wind speed of approx ____and from ____ direction, in ____ type of cover, and _____ clouds and weather conditions, in _____ depth of water and you have already worked ______ , _____, _____, _____ and _____ types of baits without much success, what would be your last resort bait to bank on or finish up the day provided your fishing day ends up at ____ o'clock? Now, some of us can make a decision without getting too ancy. LOL Really I have favorites in each different condition so hard to choose. Good Fishin
Lavrax reply :

+1 - I've become a reel swimbait wh@&e lately.
Pond Hopper reply :
I would have to say a 3/8 oz jig with an *** trailer, the only problem I have with it is when the vegetation starts to grow up in the summer and fishing a jig gets tough.
