Your favourite bait

[MeghanOOD]

OOD Editor Ray Blades loves deep-cranking crankbaits for smallmouth bass more than Tormund Giantsbane loves Brienne of Tarth. What’s your favourite bait?

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.

Hi,

I really like spinner flies for smallmouth. I'll usually use a muddler or a wooly bugger type of pattern.

Cheers,
Neil

We love smashing large mouth bass with a Rapala original floating (size F11) in the bleeding hot olive colour

Depending what I'm after. For Walleye, my go to bait on any body of water that holds em, is a twister tail in a root beer colour imbedded with red metal flake and a lead head jig in the lightest weight possible while still being able to stay in contact with the bait, It'll outfish any other bait out there when fishing for eyes .

Worm harnesses.

for bass lately the little Bass pro tournament special hoppers have been working well for me .

The F11 works well for me too
