All depends on the fish I'm after...if it was just one lure though..no matter what kind of fish..

Good choice. I like the rooster tails. I prefer the black fury though.

I think inline spinners have really made a comeback as of recently. Maybe its just me, but it seems like a lot of people had put them aside for a while in favor of all these fancy bass baits. People forget that those things have been catching bass (and many other things as Chuck has shown) for a long long time.

I think the same goes for live bait as well, to a certain extent. I took out a couple of my buddies to my secret spot and they thought I was just gonna go panfishin because I had bought a tub of worms, some minnows, and some leeches. Once I started poppin good sized bass left and right, they switched to the live bait too!
