bassin_man reply :
What is everyones favorite brand for each lure type they use? Thought it would be kind of interesting to see what everyone likes to use and which is most popular. If you want to go into more detail you can say the specific model also. I will start it off.
Hardbaits-Rapala and Bomber in a tie, plan on giving Lucky Craft a try here soon. Heddon and Rebel when it comes to topwater.

Spinnerbaits/Buzzbaits-Terminator
Jig- Custom(Gman)

guest reply :
There's no way I could simplify things to this extennt.
For example In soft plastics alone, I really like the zoom finesse worm, super fluke, and horny toad
But for senko's it's GYCB, also his fat ika, and grubs
In worms I like culprit, manns jelly, and GYCB kut tail
you get the picture,
Now that I've got some of Chris' custom handpours the whole soft plastic world has stood on it's head.

Fisher of Men reply :
Cranks- (I know they catch alot of flack from some around here, but. . .) Rat-L-traps/Cordell Spots, Bomber A
Soft plastics- Zoom lizards, Berkely Powerworms
Spinnerbaits- Strike King
Top water baits- Heddon (Pradco)- Pop-R's and Torpedo's
If it catches fish and is on sale, I'm buying. These are just brands I use, not that I couldn't be persuaded to use otherwise.
KU_Bassmaster. reply :
Soft Plastics - I use a lot, but seem have more YUM and Zoom than anything else
Hard baits - Rapala and Lucky Craft
Jigs - Booyah
senile1 reply :
Like Avid stated, I don't think I can narrow this down to a favorite. I can state some generalities.
Hardbaits: I have more Rapala than anything else.
Softbaits: Depends on if its a worm, creature, tube, frog, etc.
Jigs: I have more Booyah and Strike King than anything else.
Spinnerbaits: Terminator and Strike King

Siebert Outdoors reply :
Hardbaits-bandit
topwater spro frog, starting to make soft plastic frogs
Soft Plastics-joesjigtrailers, starting to make my own
Spinnerbaits/Buzzbaits- S/b probably terminator or nichols, BB custom by buzzinbass on AAFF, make a few of my own of both.
Jig- Custom(Gman) I dont think I have thrown a factory jig in over 3 years
Valascus reply :
Cranks: More Rapala than anything else. Toss in a few Mann's, Norman, and Bandits.
Hard Topwater: Heddon, Rapala, Arbogast, LC...again more Rapala than anything else.
Buzzbaits/Spinnerbaits: Booyah, Terminator, or Strike King...more Booyah here.
Jerkbaits: Rapala, Smithwick, LC (if I can afford it)...more Rapala here too.
Jigs: Jig-X, Booyah, Eakins...starting to lean more towards Booyah here...knots on Jig-X can be a pain at times...especially when it's cold.
Plastics: I use a little of everything here. probably have 10-15 different brands in my bag right now. ZOOM and YUM! outnumber most of then though.
If I could afford to buy them more often I am sure LC would be added to any category they make lures in. I would love to have some of their cranks, jerkbaits, and more topwaters.
RoLo reply :

Cotton Cordell--Super Spots
Norman --Baby N, Deep Baby N

Rogues
Zara Spooks
I make my own jigs.
" " " " spinnerbaits but, the ones I do buy are War Eagle, Big Mouth (www.bigmouthlures.com ), and those old Hank Parkers. I don't know why but, I have a lot of luck on those HP'S.
Buzzbaits---Cavitrons, hands down.
Plastics---Zoom, Culprit, and I have really come to like the BPS Tournament Series. I buy my salty tubes in bulk by the gazillions from a friend.
