I was just wondering what the first artificial bait you ever caught a fish one was

Me it was a 1/8 oz green and black back white belly jitterbug

Renegade 4" curly tail worm in Motor Oil color weightless with a 5/0 Eagle Claw hook, LOL!!!!

So long ago i have no clue....im sure it was some kind of plastic worm with a spincast set up

Can't remember for sure but I'm pretty sure that it was either a Teeny Torpedo or a Beetle Spin.

mine of course was the watermelon 4" senko texas rigged.

zara spook. this was during my migration from the salt to the freshwater.

I remember it distinctly even after 35 years. I was 8 yrs old and my uncle Bill Fletcher and I were fishing Lake Norfork at night. He had rigged me with a 7" grape Jelly Worm. I pulled in a 3 pounder! He even bought me a little stick-on patch from Panther Bay marina the next day. The kind where you write on it the size of the fish. I wore that patch proudly!

First fish was probably on a roostertail,first bass was on a rebel teeny wee craw crankbait.

Mann's plastic worm, circa 1972/3 or Rebel broke back minnow.  At that time I could afford a 5 pack of worms (2.00) and a Rebel (2.50).  If you broke off with the rebel you went to get it.  Fishing for bass with live bait (shiners) was a lot cheaper.

7"  berkley power worm, black grape.

Not sure, but my best guess would be a red and white Daredevle.

First fish on artificial, would be a 16" northern with a red and white daredevil when I was 8.

First bass on artificial was with a 1/8oz chartreuse and white spinner

My first artificial bait fish was a Spanish Mackeral on Luhr Jensen's Gold Spoon 1/2 oz.

Good times  8-)

 I was about 10 or 11 on a vacation with my family at Lake Norfork. It was maybe 3/4 lb. bass on my first baitcaster and a red and white Daredevil. Never thought I'd hear the same thing from other folks ...

A spoon.  I was probably about six and had now idea what I was doing.  Caught it in my dads tank reeling it in a steady retrieve on a Zebco 33, LMAO.  Funny thing is that was a good pattern for that tank.  No telling how many I caught that way before I "knew better".

Mine was on a 6 inch culrit ribbon tale worm in shad pattern.  1 lb spot fishing from the dock at cave run lake.  I was 11 or 12 years old.

Well like most young kids, I probably caught my first fish on a night crawler.

However, I believe I caught my first one on an artificial with a Rooster Tail. Still use Rooster Tails very often.

A 12 year old boy found a Crème Scoundrel "Catalpa/Catawba" (black with 2 yellow stripes) between the wooden floor slats of a handmade rental boat.

Mine was a Devils horse. I was not supposed to be throwing it. I was so young and they have 3 sets or trebles. I think I was about 5. I was so nervous I forgot to reel it in, I just walked backwards until it was on the bank. ;D

A big yellow Devil's Horse.

#1 Mepps Spinner w/ Maribou Tail - Brooke Trout

Big black live slug - Bass

I'm sure I caught one on bait earlier, but the my first lure that snagged a bass was a Rapala Original Floater.

Heddon's Lucky 13 (wood); 1959. 2 lb. largemouth. Been "hooked" ever since.   Still have that lure.
