best lures

in your opinion, what lures are the best for you?

mr basskid, not to sound like a smartarse but what are we fishing for? bluegill? bass? stripers?
what time of year? winter? spring? spawn? schooling jump fish in the shad?
water conditions? muddy? ultra-clear?
river? lake? pond?
tournament ? takin the kids?
fishing from the bank? taking the bass boat?

i see you have a ton of posts that are all pretty general in nature, if you refine your questions and be more specific i KNOW you will get what you are looking for....there are a bunch of guys on here that are VERY good at what they do (float n fly, spinnerbait fishing etc technique specific)

good luck
p.s. if your asking about stripers for example i like a little mac at night dec through march on cumberland. :)

Carolina rig jitterbug

Or Carolina Buzzbait, that works grrrrrreat.
