Soft plastics are responsible for most of my fish. But considering I fish texas rigs, flordia rigs, carolina rigs, or jigs almost 90% of the time, that probably has more to do with it. Cranks, spinnerbaits, and topwaters all produce for me when I take the time to use them or find a way to squeeze them in between flips and pitches.

...everthing else is just for fun."

I actually wonder about that.  Spoons, wooden plugs, and hair jigs have been around for ages and ages.  Not specifically for bass, but I'm sure they have hauled in a bunch.  But plastics have had the time, technology, and marketing to catch up fast.  It would be interesting.

I have 2 places that I do most of my fishing.  One of them I am more productive with soft plastics, the other one is more productive with hard plastics.

I just started forcing myself to use something else for at least an hour every trip out.  Last time out it was a spinnerbait with little success.

It is so difficult for me to fish something other than soft plastics because of the no confidence factor.

Welcome to the group Cracker, soft plastics and jigs are my favorites as well.

So many styles and ways to fish them make them very versitile.

Where I do most of my fishing (almost daily) soft plastics work great. Usually its a 5 1/2" worm with mustard hooks, or a twister tail grub with a 3/8 oz standup jig head works great fishing deeper. If one isn't working, the other is.
