Your favourite bait
OOD Editor Ray Blades loves deep-cranking crankbaits for smallmouth bass more than Tormund Giantsbane loves Brienne of Tarth. What’s your favourite bait?
What can I but enumerate old themes,
First that sea-rider Oisin led by the nose
Through three enchanted islands, allegorical dreams,
Vain gaiety, vain battle, vain repose,
Themes of the embittered heart, or so it seems.
-- "The Circus Animals’ Desertion" by William Butler Yeats

Opening couple of weeks of bass season on Lake Erie our go to lure has always been a Rapala Shad Rap in perch finish.

For fresh water, the lure or spoon that matches the local prey species in terms of size and colour depending on that year's hatch. For salt water, shrimp or cut bait of any size, salt water fish are not as fussy.

My favorite lures for Walleye are rattle baits (Cotton Cordell,Rapala) and top water gurglers (sounds like a $10 hooker running for the last bus) and poppers for Bass.
