What do you like for a search bait this time of year? I like to use a chartreuse/purple balsa Bagley crank or the 4 blade Stanley spinners, usually in white. In clear water I like the Shad color Bandit cranks.

I have had good luck with the bandit 200 series in some sort of shad, or chart color, banging into all the wood I can find. Or like 1Holmes says, some sort of rattle bait.

On Ray Bob right now; Lucky Craft BDS 1 in Ghost minnow or a Lucky Craft Moonsault cb100 in American Shad. Both have been equally killer.

I agree with The Natural, but might also throw a white bass assasain or fluke style bait with a little extra added weight to speed things up.

Spinnerbait and Small Crankbait. When the water gets in the 60's I switch the crankbait to a suspending jerkbait. When it gets cooler I go with a C-rig on structure and a t-rig on cover.

By far a watrmln-red/pearl swimbug. Rig it texas and have an 1/8oz. bullet wieght, then just through it out and reall back with some pops and jerks.

I also love a shallow diving square billed, shad colored crankbait.
