  • The "Go-To" bait thing, ya that doesn't seem to work for me.   The closest version of that for me would be that there are one or two baits that I can use for each calendar period that routinely prod

  • Spinnerbait for me. I will catch a fish on a spinnerbait, guaranteed. Jig and pig is a close second.

Right now it's the Rage Tail Menace.

Shaky Head Senko. I'm getting more confident with other lures at the moment, but when I find a fishy spot or checking old spots, I start with a senko then other baits after I catch a couple.

I see mostly all soft baits, listed, so far.  My comfort zone seems solid in the hard bait section, preferably something like a Berkley Flicker Shad, or a Rapala X-rap or Scatter Rap Shad.

Spinnerbait for me. I will catch a fish on a spinnerbait, guaranteed. Jig and pig is a close second.

Right Now, today it's a Rage Cut R weightless or not.

I did tons of damage with the Cut-R in the beginning of the year! Awesome bait.

Lately I have been gaining a lot of confidence in lipless cranks and have been throwing them a lot of the time in recent weeks.

A 4" worm, nose hooked on a drop shot. 

I have more than one.

1. Squarebills

2. Senko

3. Beavers

4. Tubes

This is going to sound really weird to most people, but I know that I can get bit on a popper or a walking bait almost every day between april- october. I have caught more fish on a super spook ans super spook junior than I have with any other lure this season. 

H&H Spinner bait.  No particular color or set up.  Those just flat work for me.  Ain't too many ways they can't be fished

 

next would be a lipless crank.  usually in something like Rayburn Red or a Metalllic

4 inch senko type bait.

:yes:

All of them at the right time, otherwise why would I fish with them.  

 

I do have a growing box of baits that I have ZERO faith in though sitting in the corner of the garage.

What's in that box?

Drop Shot

Its far from my favorite technique but it catches fish year long, and you can fish nearly any bait with it.

Not a lot of people try it, but 4" senkos rigged wacky on a drop shot is the best set up of all time for pressured bass.

Honestly, Senko's and that style of worm in other brands, jerkbaits, various swimbaits I didn't like after I tried them to no avail, some Zoom Critter Craws, and a few other creature baits and probably a half dozen different worms I've given up on as well.  

 

Edit: I did find a use for the Zinkers though when I cut them in half.

There's days when it flat-out falls on its face, but MOST of the time when things get tough, I'm going to reach for a green Cut-R.  Usually on a weighted hook, but sometimes lightly t-rigged.

T-rig with Culprit Fat Max blue fleck shad.

Dirty jigs swim jig n rage craw trailer. I can fish this bait 100 different ways and throw it into anything with 100% confidence. They smack it hard and I have not lost a fish in 2 seasons on it.

Rage Craw or Rage Anaconda always produce.My go too for sure.
