What is the best type of lure to use right now during the summer? I havent had too much luck lately.

you can never go wrong w/ a weightless senko

Gotta be a soft plastic something.

Jig

Deep Crank

Texas Rig

Shaky Head

Drop Shot

Start your day with a buzz bait.

Buzzbaits and topwater early in the morning and evening. During the day some kind of soft plastic fished in cover. Lipless cranks.

Start your day with a buzz bait.

Coffee first,...THEN a buzzbait. ;)  

Welcome aboard!

Soft plastics have been good for me during the heat of the day. I have recently had some success with swimbaits.

Texas rigged worms have been my ticket lately.

Senkos,drop shot,finesse, etc I'm still trying to master.

Thanks for the information on lures

Does anyone have any problems with their plastics getting to hot and getting really soft?  The Senko's are already not very durable but when they get hot they suck, they get so soft they just disintegrate off the hook when the fish bites it.  I think i'll start storing them in the ice chest when we fish, does anyone else have to do this?
