If you had to pick 10 soft plastic baits from across the board, be it creature baits, tubes, senko style stick worms, and other worms, what would you choose and in what color(s)?

Impossible to answer! Too many variables. It depends on what species I'm targeting along with the water I'm fishing and the structure I'm presenting to.

If you were going to start fishing a new lake for largemouth bass, the water isn't totally murky but it's got some cloud to it, and it's spring.
