I forgot about them for a long time but fished them a lot last year .They produced some nice fish . I found some old stock large sized Beetles without the spinner at a mom and pop tackle store , added some spinners , put on a baitcaster and used them quite a bit .

They’re the best 87 cents I’ve ever spent. First bass my boy ever caught was on one with a black grub with chartreuse lines on it. Was pushing 5lbs, on a light powered spinning rod. Kiddo was grinning ear to ear. I’ve caught all kinds of species including some nice large mouth. Good times. I have all these cool new lures and want to fish with all of them, so they’ve been pushed aside.

I guess the most under utilized bait for me are suspending jerkbaits . I need to fish them more   , even in the warm months .

Same for me...close second is a drop shot

Lizards. I used to throw them all the time.

Me too.  The lizard went the way of the dinosaur when the brush hog hit the scene.

This is another one for me...I picked up 3 bags of zoom 6inch lizards for the spring this year. Haven't thrown one in maybe 10 years.

For me its the baby brush hog t-rigged (with weight). It was my go-to for years but I didn't use one at all last year.

Original Rapala

I never stopped throwing it, and it has always produced year after year.

 

True to form wasn’t catching on Trig, jig, or spinner. So I put a Creme swim bait on. 1/4 oz.  Boom. 

 

Sorry not a great pic but I’m balanced on rocks with 20-30 mph constant wind. 
 

Is this is a striper? Not to be too obviously stupid but I wasn’t sure. Really fought hard too.
