what is a good bass lure you have found to be effective? maybe always works or will always work when others fail? trying to get some bass on at my neighbors pond but they havent been biting anything i have used. any suggestions.

plastic worms/lizard 4", tubes, spinnerbait, jig, senko's or flukes. and if the water is clear you'll need to down-size your baits and line dia. these are what i would try tubes first because of the tuff bite, senko/flukes next. on a tuff bite i always down-size 3-4" tube 1/8 oz weight, senkos and flukes weightless, hope this helps some.

btw a fish you can see (bass) is very difficult to catch unless it's bedding, and thats a whole other matter

old faithful for me has always been a 4" mister twister and rebel craw but then again I fish for smallmouth so a pond would be a different story. I would have to say senko or husky jerk in that scenario.

my old faithful is a rooster tail. try it for 1.97

Zoom baby brush hog for me. You can fish it texas rigged, carolina rigged, weightless on top, weightless like a jerk bait, drop shot, and the bass love them. Rig it texas style and fish it really slow next to cover, the bass can't leave it alone.

Rooster Tail. 3/8 ounce white hackle.

Spinnerbaits used to be my favorite (with an extra hook to prevent short strikes from getting away). Now my first choice are these...watermelon pearl kills'em.

4.5 inch Slug-go, black with either silver or gold flakes. Catches fish when nothing else will. Just a twitch then pause, slowly. They'll usually grab it on the pause and you'll feel them when you go to twitch it again. If you're fishing in dirtier water, you might want to try some brighter colors. Good luck!

tubes and senko's will almost always put fish in the boat

Tubes, plastic worms, spinnerbaits(stay away from Terminator, the split rings are crap),senko's..crankbaits

Bomber Fat Free Shad has been producing like mad for me. great lure, runs true, all around good crankbait

YUM Garret Mega Tubes are pretty good. I pretty much use all YUM soft plastics inmost situations.
