A 1/16oz hair jig is the smallest and the largest is a custom made spook that is 7" long and weighs 2 oz.

Typically, for large mouth bass I'll go up to an 8" swimbait down to a 4.5" worm. Salt water bass (Calico and Sand) in the ocean between a 7-8" swimbait down to a 5" inch bait. For salt water bass in the bay (Spotties, Sandies and Calicos) between 5" to 3" swimbait. These are general guidelies for myself. I know people go bigger (10"+ baits and 1" micro grubs), but this is my comfort AND confidence zone.

Smallest-Fly fishing, so however small some of the bass flies are

 

Largest- 13 inch gambler ribbon tail worm

I rarely ever throw real big baits.. If I had to pick one Id say it would probably be the Rage Anaconda 10'' worm, but thats rare. The smallest I throw is a 5/16 oz jig.

In past I have used 1/128 oz Turner Micro jigs about 1/2" and 16" dinosaur swimbaits.

Currently fishing with Keitech 2" little spider on 1/8 jig and 16" Uptom's Custom worms, heaviest Black Dog 12" swimbait.

Snap peas or snap bean. These tiny one treble cranks.

Largest so far is a BPS glass PERCH CRANKBAIT 7" long.

Castiac 9" trout swim bait.

Smallest would be a Zoom finesse worm. Largest is an old Rapala fat rap crank bait

The smallest I generally use is 1/16 oz spro phat fly. The largest I have thrown is a 13 in Mattlures dead twitch. Most of the time I don't throw many swimbaits over 10 inches.

Probably a 4" Zoom finesse worm for smallest.

 

Largest is probably the Hinkle. 11", 9.5oz

Largest - Hudd 68 Special

Smallest - 1/4 oz Roadrunner (still surprised at how many bass this catches)

Zoom Ultra Vibe Speed Craw 3"

V & M Bayou Giant Worm 14"

1/2 of a Zman Zinker on a 3/32oz jighead

9" MS Slammer

That 1/2 Zinker on a jighead is one of my go to cold water baits.

Smallest I have ever thrown would either be a mice tail on a little jig that I was going for a about 4 inch long large mouth that I had a personal vendetta with. But beside that, it would be a small rooster tail. Largest ive thrown was a 12 inch worm with a square tail.

1 inch grub, caught a 4 lber

14 inch Berkley worm with twisty tail, caught a 6 lber

Go figure lol

Over the last couple of months I'm using nothing but home made streamers on a 1/8 oz jig head for bass and peacocks.  Heavy lures means a heavy rod, don't care to fish that way.  The heaviest I use are my home made barracuda tubes which weigh about 1.5 oz. used on a mh rod.  Nothing quite beats catching a fish on a lure you made yourself, better yet watching some else do it.

Smallest is a Bento Minnow 3" on a drop shot. Man those things are tiny.

Largest, probably not the heaviest, but def the bulkiest is Flash Mob A Rig with 3/8 or 1/2 oz heads.
