[ryanh487]

Either a white super fluke or 3" white paddle tail swim bait

1/8 mepps aglia with gold blade.

Red Rooster tail with a beetle spin coming in at a close second.

 

[MYRX]

only one lure? A fluke or senko.

 

[Athos]

I’d probably go with a spoon. Good argument to be made for a bugger or a fluke.

Darn! I thought I was the only person to slice up a plastic worm and put a strip on a tiny hook to fish for panfish. I thought I was a creative genius.

Mr. Fella, I probably overheard you talking about that in some Waffle House in 1979 or something. FWIW, I've also been known ( in a pinch and desperate to fish) to find a hook and line on the bank and use the inside fluff of a used cigarette butt to catch spawning crappie. PRO TIP: Cigarette butt must not be yours! Trade secret right there. Send $5 to....

I have shaped chewing gum into a minnow and caught spawning crappie on it.

What is funny some of the lures mentioned.I have never in my life caught a fish. Bettle spin tried again this year don't ever think I will try again. Probably of all mentioned rooster tail had my best luck.

Be careful I almost stepped on a water moccasin today

hmmm......good call on the 2" Rapala! Nearly every single species worth eating will attack a Rapala. Okay, plus I like fishing topwater!

I would think you are cursed if you can't catch anything on a Beetle Spin! Rooster Tail are very versatile though, so at least you aren't double cursed.

 

[glynr329]

It is funny how people love and catch a ton of fish on different lures. I have caught so many crappie years ago on white jigs get tired of catching them. I have a tackle box full of lures but 90 percent of my bass I catch are caught on June bug lizard or worm.
