On bait. Hmmm.... I'ld probably go with a weedless jigging spoon with a
soft worm trailer.

The reason for that bait is that I could modify it to just the hook and worm
for a weightless presentation, or use the whole thing to fish deep humps and
pockets, or I could flip it into heavy cover.

Since you are limiting me to one bait I'll make the wild assumption of only
one rod as well and say I'ld probably go with a medium or medium heavy
spinning rod spooled with 15LB fluorocarbon as a compromise for most
conditions and fly in the face of those who say you can't flip heavy cover
with spinning tackle. Of course since I'ld only have the one bait I'ld try
working the edges of any cover first, and I'ld retie often.

If you went to a new lake and could only use ONE artificial bait/lure;
which
would it be and how would you present it?
