What are your favorite plastic lure and what kind of retrieve would you use with it?

I can't honestly say I have a favorite b/c they have there times and places.  However, I'd say I'm fishing either a senko or a tube more time than the rest.  Senko usually is deadsticked and tubes are swam slowly.

Paca craws, Sweet Beavers, Power worms. Texas rig, Carolina rig, shakey head and so forth. You can hardly fish them wrong.

I don't have one favorite, but I do have favorites based on techniques, brand, and type.

Craws: Paca craw

Creature: Sweet Beaver

Stick bait: Senko

Ribbon tail worm: 10" Berkley Power worm

Stright tail worm: Zoom trick worm

Drop shot worm: Robo worm

Shakey head worm: Berkley Shakey worm

Flipping jig Trailer: Paca chunk

Finess jig trailer: Yum craw bug and baby yum craw bug

Frog: Zoom horny toad

Flipping Tube: 4" Venom

Finesse tube: 3" Venom

Swinbait: Berkley Hollow belly

Jerkbait: Zoom Super fluke

Drop shot minnow: Zoom tiny fluke

Lizard: 6" Zoom

Misc Drop shot baits: 3" Gulp fry, and 3" gulp leech

My favorite is zoom U-Tail in green pumpkin and watermelon candy. i fish them Texas rigged.

Bassmaster6

Banjo Minnows.....no just kidding

I like the Zoom trick worm because there is no tactic from shaky head to carolina ring that it won't work on

It's much better than a senko

Four inch white creme yamamoto senko rigged weightless and texposed on a 1/0 EWG Gammy with 6 - 10 pound line.

#1 Texas Rigged Gene Larew 7 ½ Salty Ring Worm in Cinnamon Pepper Neon/June Bug Laminated (Camouflage)

¼ oz Bullet Weight Black

Mustad 3/0 Straight Shank Denny Brauer Flipping Hook P/N: 32807BLNU32

Shimano Calcutta CT100A spooled with Berkley Big Game 15# Mean Green on a Shimano Crucial CRC-X610MH

My favorites are,

The 5" yum dinger either texas or wacky style in Watermelon Red or Black/Blue flake

Zoom Horny Toad Plastic Frogs

Scum Frogs (not really a soft plastic, but plastic none the less)

I'd like to think I can catch a Bass on any plastic offered by Brent at ***.  There's no rocket science to baits unlike many manufacturers would like to lead you to believe.  

On that note, they all work so give me the ones I can get the cheapest with the best and most personalized customer service.

That ones a no brainer for me.  ***, all day,. all night.

Senko/Tiki Stick/Dinger/***

Brush Hog

Wolly Hawg Tail

Z-Too/Fluke

Any Rage Tail

Strike King Super Finesse Worm

I can't remember the last time I tied on a standard curl tail worm.

I agree 100%. I went out yesterday and drop shotted with some trick sticks in watermelon with chartreuse tails and that worked well. When I was up shallow I rigged some wacky and those were getting hit. I even had success with the 10" worm.

I've got my soft plastics case almost completely full of stuff from ***, great quality, price, and best of all they catch fish!

***:

6" Finesse Worm

7" Hookup

5" ***

As has been mentioned, Brent is tops for quality, price, and service.  

Falcon

Anything made by Zoom!

Spring GYCB DT Hula Grub Texas rigged VERY light and tubes stuffed with soaked earplugs and slowly swam.

Summer Stike King ZToo, getting hard to come by, being forced to try Perfect Plastic Caffiene Shad in their place rigged weightless.

Fall 10" worms, haven'f found any that don't get bit rigged anyway you like.

I really want to try Fat Ika's, double rigged flukes and a lot more shakey heads.

Twitch

a 5'' stick bait (use many different brands: Zeros, yum dingers, kinami flash, ***....), and a BPS tender tube.

I can't answer this with a single item.  My youngest son says (without hesitation) "***" (***).  They sure made him a happy kid last summer and I gotta admit....they ARE killer!!

5 inch worm, Yamamoto's and soon going to try ***

yamamoto dt hula grubs on a jig i always have one rigged up no matter what

3 inch=smallie beaver(dirty sanchez or pumpkin black flake)

4 inch=roboworm in blue crawler, morning dawn and peoples pro staff

5 inch= yamamoto kut tail(natural colors)

6 inch=roboworm in prizm krawler and trick worm in Ruby color

senko and ika in black with blue flake and watermellon red

fluke in blue glimmer color

8-10 inch=old intimidator plastics in jalapeno color

I usually fish my senko with a slow retrieve that consists of a pull/twitch, then a long pause. I will alter the number of twitches and length of the pauses. Almost no way that I won't catch bass.

Tubes

Finesse Worms

Baby Brush Hogs

Senko and Senko knock offs

Flukes

Slug-o

Large plastic worms

Plastic Craws

I think that covers about everything in my tackle bag.

hmm

worms - no matter what the tail - watermelon red, watermelon, pumpkin see with chart tail, black and my favorite junebug

lizards, same as above but the fatter and shorter the better

brush hogs weightless in any color just about

Zoom Super Speed Craw in Cinnamon Purple!  Small profile with great action.  I can use it on a baitcaster or spinning rod.  Or the Zoom Shakey Head Worm in Watermelon Red.  Those two have recently become my comfort baits where I have a lot of confidence.

My if all else fails bait has always been Wave Fishing 5" tiki sticks, usually smoke shad color. I have caught bass in all weather conditions, all types of water with them. They rarely if ever fail to produce for me. Be trying out the *** ones soon.

I will Carolina rig 'em, or some custom variant of that and just bring 'em back slow with a little jerk here or there.

Be trying the *** sticks next time I run low.

It is almost a curse though. I am so confident in them, and have used them so much, I think I go to them too quickly.
