This year the jig is my MVP so far as it's nabbed my 2 biggest of the season so far and my rookie of the year would be the Rage Bug . 

Fx knuckle sexy french pearl has done really well for me.

I would like to get better at catching them on a swim jig. But I'll probably just stick to what catches me fish, my zoom lizards and trick works

The same lure it's been the last 5 years; Zoom Trick Worm.

A rapala DT14.

I've got two for this year.  I'd say 99% of my fish have come off of them.

Rage Menace with and Extreme Shaky head 1/4 oz

 

Big O Brush jig 1/2oz blue bug with a rage blue bug craw.

The red Red Eye Shad. Works every time for me.

I've been having a lot of success on the Rapala BX Minnows. I also just got into fishing plastics after being a crankbait guy for years. So I guess you could add wacky rigged Senko's to my list. 

My new, never used it before lure is a 4" tube. Venom Tube to be exact. I had never fished any kind of tube before this year. I have been catching a lot of bass on that tube.

Hootie

Been the year of the jig for me, 3/8 football jig with chigger craw hopping off bottom, green pumpkin...when weeds got up I started using a swim jig, siebert tournament in bluegill with green pumpkin chigger craw been slaying em

I've had two go to lures this year. Spro little john md in chrome olive and Megabass pop X in white python. 

Black and blue jig. I started out using the strike king pro model jig , but I got some siebert outdoors jigs recently and they are better and cheaper than anything you can get from bass pro. 1/2 oz black/blue brush jig specifically.

1. Siebert 3/8 oz Blue Craw Dredge Football Jig with a Berkley Pumpkin colored Chiggar Craw.

2. H2O Express Bluegill colored Squarebill crank.

3. Zoom Baitfish colored Super Fluke.

It was a Rage Tail Baby Craw early in the year, but lately it's been a T-rigged Culprit 10" black ribbon-tail.

Keitech Swing Impact Fat (my go to 2012 and 2013)

Zoom Speedcraw

Getting a lot of fish on a Buzzjet too.

My new, never used it before lure is a 4" tube. Venom Tube to be exact. I had never fished any kind of tube before this year. I have been catching a lot of bass on that tube.

Tubes are fantastic! Squirt some megastrike up inside of it.

Zoom finesse worm in black. Any lake, any day, any time.

For me, it just works.

Last year it was Square bills. This year it was a StrikeBack spinnerbaits, but the bite has really been unstable on any one presentation. The only 'new' bait I've been using is a white RageTail craw on a white 1/2oz. Swim jig. It's been my bIg fish presentation since post spawn and has put more of them in the boat for me than my old fav. a Zoom Ol Monster.

Lots of wacky rigging/flick shaking for me

Siebert outdoors brush jig (bluegill) with a R.I. smallie beaver trailer.

 

Siebert outdoors Zenith shakeyhead(3/16) tipped with Danny Joe Humphreys floating worm.

 

Zoom magnum finesse worm weightless.(black)

 

On a sidenote and not to derail the thread but when I started bass fishing many years ago black was the color I threw the most. I got away from that color for a number of years but this year in particular I am throwing It In almost all conditions and having great success.

Little late but mine was the weightless zoom trick worm- watermelon chat tail

just started getting into fishing this year. I went almost every day in the summer and I found that trick worms, stick baits, buzzbaits, and topwater frogs caught me a ton
