What lure do you think you've spent the most money on in your life time.
For me its the good ole rage craw, thats the only bait I find myself going to the store and coming out with 5-10 packs haha
I bet some of the answers will be swimbaits, I'm thinking about getting into them but the prices on some make my head spin....
Jigs and all of the molds, lead, skirt materials, hookes and weedguard.

^This. Right behind it is crankbaits. I just can't resist 'em.

Plastics for sure.. Just plastics of all kinds. I have way too many. Some might say you can never have too many, and to a certain extent I agree, but 90% of the stuff I buy rarely gets used :/
My Rage Tail gets put to work though!!
Plastics, both worm and creature bait types. My husband has an obsession with GYCB and has to have every color.. every size... they even have their own tackle bag!! So we spend the most probably on plastics.
Well I have spent more money on Lucky Craft jerkbaits than any other bait. Color doesn't matter but yet it does.
Definitely soft plastics, and more specifically YCB plastics. Senkos, Hulagrubs, Kreatures and Flappin Hogs. 7 bucks a bag and I have and have used so many.
North Star Original Swim Jigs and Reaction Innovations Skinny Dippers for trailers...
Plastic cigars AKA Senkos, Yum Dingers, Megastrike megasticks, Big bite trick sticks. I am just amazed how those things always catch fish!
Rapala and Lucky Craft crankbaits, jerkbaits, topwaters.
Hard baits in general love to fish hard baits love them. followed closely by plastics have so many but so few lol

Yeah...... I bought probably 25 squarebills a month or 2 ago and I've lost most of them I have the 4 I use the most left and then I'm out... I need more but don't have the $$

If your losing baits that much I have two for you Lure Retriever lol

I have a habit of buying Rapala's - I bought 20 new ones at a flea market a few weeks ago and by the time I went to put them in my tackle box my Son and Daughter both grabbed 5, and my wife scooped up another 5 - oh well back to shopping for more I guess
I'll just say Megabass lures. Guarantee I have over 50!
Probably Zoom and Big Bite Bait plastics.
Crank baits and swim jigs for me.
Rage Products
Jigs and worms

Yeah usually you can catch em with cranks no problem but I've been unlucky lately and the big ones have been jacking my KVD's :/
Plastics. Mostly GY,Rage tail and Zoom products
First would probably have to be crankbaits, which are all Strike King KVD squarebills, Series 4S, Series 1 and Series 1XS with 1 Rapala Scatter Rap Crank Shallow. Then it would have to be plastics with my senko style worms I use for wacky rig fishing taking the silver followed by jig and spinnerbait trailers collection to round out the top 3.
Lucky Craft hardbaits.
This may seem odd but I would have to say inline spinners. Plastics would be a close second.
JIgs and plastics, swimbaits are coming up the list fast though.
Probably jigs and trailers. I lose a lot of them.

Not baits....boat!

Amen to that!!!
I spend more on tungsten and gas than anything else... and I'll go through two or three bags of swimbaits and senkos a week
Keitech Swing Impact FAT by far.
Zoom and Netbait plastics for me !!!
Jerkbaits in general, Lucky Craft and Megabass Ito Vision 110 in particular.
Zoom Plastics, Rage Tail Plastics, Crankbaits.....you can NEVER have enough crankbaits haha
Jigs and Trailers.... I have a weird thing for Havoc pit bosses and devil spears
Rage tail. Then probably jigs
Alabama rigs. At $30 a pop fully rigged, I've probably left $1000 in Toledo bend alone! After that would be rage tail products and lucky craft pointers/cranks.
As a general, squarebills. If I hit the water and fish squarebills for a few hours I lose a few no matter what. Its par to the course.
Soft plastics for sure. Just ordered a bottle of Mend-It so hopefully that will save me some money...
gambler plastics followed by spinnerbaits.
Cranks ! I´m weak about cranks ..........who the hell I´m trying to fool ? I´m weak about any bait !
Crankbaits. It cures my addiction. Also, Bucktails for striper. I usually spend more on Striper gear like hooks and weights. but that's not a lure.
About half of my money goes to KVD cranks alone..
Zoom trick worms, horny toads, and every manner and sort of topwater.
Definitely soft plastics for me.
Megabass lures have put me in the poor house a few times but I have spent more money on Yamamato baits than anything else.
Swimbaits for sure but besides those I spend a lot on jigs and megabass lures.
Soft plastics.
Spent a lot in the off season stocking up on plastics, but right now my money is going towards crankbaits mostly. Right before reading this thread I placed an order at TW for about a half dozen crank baits.
Keitech Easy Shiners. Nothing comes close...
I will show my wife these posts. Lol. She thinks I'm the only person who has a problem. She'll suggest we have a fishermen's anonymous meeting to discuss our addiction and how to over come the big bass fever. Lucky for me she loves fried fish!
Beer
Collectively: Chigger craws, Brush Hogs, and Sweet Beavers
Rage, senkos, zoom all soft plastics BUT, got to have hooks, then tungston or jig heads so it's never ending really
Rage Tail, Jigs, Hooks

Well, not to long after I posted this I was back on TW ordering some of the new Rage Bugs. Just have to wait for them to get in stock.

A gathering could double as a swap meet.
Swimbaits and senkos
Probably frogs. I have a couple dozen for sure.
After that it's got to be plastics. Roboworms are the majority but pit bosses, ol monsters, slug-go SS... Let's face it you need a few bags of each of your favorite color and before you know it you've got 20lbs of plastic haha
