What is you favorite lure of all time and why?

For me it is the LC pointer

i love jerkait fishing because its fast paced, it covers tons of water and they plain old catch fish!

Close 2nd would be the tried and true spook...in bone. Who doesnt love a topwater blowup?

Trick worms. They flat out catch me fish.

Rage craw caught 200+ fish in a month in northeast Ohio

To fish.................a hollow body frog, at least when they are biting it.

 

What has caught me the most? Probably to close to call between a jig or a stick/senko type bait.

Plastic worm & it's not even close for me..

Senko

spinnerbait in second place

yellow magic popper.  pricey bait, but it just catches lots of fish.

Not even close - a spinnerbait. Its the most versatile lure there is and it allows you to cover territory fast to pick off active fish. Lately some of the time I would have normally devoted to spinnerbaits goes to swim jigs and chatterbaits.

JIG!!!!! so versatile and catches giant bass 

Tough question. For catching, it would have to be a Senko type bait. For throwing and watching and anticipating a strike, it would be the Rage Shad. Better stop there.

Caught my pb on a jig, so thats going to be my answer.

The Rapala Original Minnow 11G with star foil. The first bass I ever caught using a hardbait was with one of these lures. This particular lure has never been fished and of all the lures in my collection, it is definitely my favorite.

I can't. I just can't.

My favorite lure of all time hands down, the hollow body frog.

I did a ton of damage on river smallie with one of those!

7 1/2" Salty Ring Worm in Cinnamon Pepper Neon Jungbug Laminated!

Ring worms have a thicker profile but a thinner body for the hook to penetrate.

Cinnamon Pepper Neon Jungbug Laminated (Camo) is visible in various water clarities & at night.

Either an inline spinner or a Rapala Original Floater.

Frogs are so much fun to to catch fish on. Jigs are 2nd for me because it can be painfully slow sometimes

I can't decide. Three-way tie between senko, tube, and crankbait. Just because they catch fish. Frog or toad when they're biting it.

Beetle spin with a grub. Most reliable bait this past season. Just started getting into fishing, so not a lot of experience. Hoping to expand my productive baits this year.

A strike king 5xd in chart ss

Squarebills or jigs maybe... Hard to pick a favorite!

My hair jigs with pork trailers, caught a lot of big bass on that jig over the years.
