My favorite go-to bass lure is a motor-oil colored plastic worm. Pulls em out of everywhere. Second favorite has to be some type of topwater, maybe a Pop-R or a buzzbait. Everyone is going to have different answers for this one, so get ready for a long list.

I love fishing top water minnows, rat'l traps and twin tailed grubs Texas rigged or on a jig head. One thing I like to find is a 7" twin tailed grub. The biggest I've been able to find are 4". I like silver and silver and black for the minnows and rat't traps and pumpkin, greens, purples, black and reds for the plastics.

A chartreuse spinner bait with gold blads is versatile and hard to beat. It can be fishe on top, at mid depth and slow rolled around structure.

Bill Lewis Rat-L-Traps are deadly in ponds, lakes, and large rivers. I've had them pull bass out of places where no other lure will.

I've had my best luck with top water poppers (hula-popper) and with Rat-L-Traps. Getting the lure to the bass is half the battle so make sure to keep something weedless in your tackle box as well.

Soft Plastics:

tubes, worms, frogs, lizards, creature baits.

Vary the size of the lures and the weights used, such as 1/32, 1/16, 1/8 etc and even try going weightless.
