bass fishin lures

I love my Watermelon Red Baby Brush Hog with some spike it! That is my #1 lure! Its a sweet rig! Otehr then that I like baby 1 Minus!

If i had to choose just one lure it would definetely be a soft plastic--probably a watermelon color lizard with a chartruese tail. I'm also a big fan of the new creature baits.

Favorite top water is a chug bug.

i love a terminator spinner bait with the Oklahoma blade.

not much of a crank bait fisherman b/c i love to fish really heavy cover.

Todd sounds like you and I Like the same fishing!

I like soft plastics also. My favorite is a 10" worm in Red Shad. Next would be watermelon or chartreuse. I use spinnerbaits a lot too. Ditto the Chug-Bug.

Any of you tried the Baby 1- made by Mann's. It is a crankbait that will only go at the deepest 1 foot. When I bass fish that is what I use most of the time.

Very early morning, top water! Maybe some cranks to locate, then usually switch over to soft plastics. I carry a tackle store on my boat so its not a problem! LOL!!!

Soft plastics are always my first choice. I really like the 6" Finesse worm in camo by Berkley. Spinnerbaits are my second choice for covering water quickly. I have had a lot of luck with a "Super Rat" weedless top water bait for weed choked areas.

I'm a soft plastic guy.. I'll throw worms/lizzards/craws in the thick stuff. Throw on a sluggo for others. I do love my rapala though and a good spinnerbait as a followup.

If you haven't tried the Zoom Horny Toads, you're missing it! Rig and fish it like a Fluke or Sluggo.

If I could use only one bait it would be a Jig-n-pig. I like a black and blue jig with a black Zoom super chunk. My favorite bait to catch fish on is a buzzbait. I love seeing a big ol bass blow up on a buzzbait. In the early Spring when the water is still 40's-low 50's a suspending jerkbait is tied to one of my rods. When the fish start to move up looking for beds I'll start throwing lizards or baby brush hogs in shallow cover. Also work a spinnerbait as well. When the fish start moving off the beds I'll throw crankbaits at em. When they move to their summer haunts I usually throw Carolina rigged brush hogs or lizards. However I always have a rod with a jig tied on it. Doesn't matter what time of year it is. My tackle bag weighs about 100 pounds with just about everything but the kitchen sink in it. I'm ready for anything!

I catch 75% of my fish on Watermelon and Blueberry lizards by Zoom. I can't find anything that comes close in the Carolina's. Other than that, I catch a lot on buzz baits and shad color crankbaits.
