Default Your Top 5 Lures

My first two are my own spinnerbaits. This is for real because I do fish
spinnerbaits at least half the time, and have been doing so for many, many
years.

1. A 3/16 oz. Secret Weapon Baby Bass spinnerbait with tandem Indiana
blades. I fish this shallow, near the bank edge and other visual cover. I
vary & mix retrieve speeds (never constant) from slow & steady to quick
spurts. This is my personal secret weapon.

2. A 1/2 oz. Secret Weapon Citrus Shad spinnerbait (soon to be added to our
internet offerings) with tandem Willowleaf blades. I usually remove the
front blade (a smaller Colorado) and fish this one deeper with varying
retrieves.

3. A pumpkin/orange Gene Larew spider jig (hula grub) on a 1/4-1/2 weedless
jig head. I like to crawl this beast across rocky bottoms with great
results.

4. A small #7 regular Rapala floating minnow in silver with black back. I
fish this one on ML spinning gear in the same locations as #1 above, using
slow twitches and quick, short dives. Severe fun!

5. A larger Pradco Spittin' Image in Tennessee Shad. I fish this thing in
any depth or structure, retrieving it anywhere from short twitches to dog
walkin'.

Note that while my #1 & #4 choices are both smaller lures, the results they
produce can run about as large as any.

Just for the fun of it, list your top 5 bass lurs that you can't live
without. Try to be specific (brand, size, color, how you rig/fish it).

Heres mine.

1. Terminator Spinnerbaits-3/8 ounce-white skirt, double willow silver
blades

2. Picasso Spider Jig with an Uncle Josh jumbo pork frog-1/4 ounce jig
in brown/orange color with an orange pork frog

3. Bass Assassin'-Shad Assassin in Albino Shad color with a 5/0
Gamakatsu hook

4. Rapala Skitter Pop-Frog color-my favorite topwater lure

5. PowerBait Power Craw-Pumpkin/orange color-Texas rigged with a 3/8
ounce bullet weight and 4/0 Gamakatsu hook

Okay, your turn.
