6th Sense Snatch 70X

Here's what I use the majority of the time. Has a great action on the fall, quality components and the colors are freaking awesome!

Duo Realis Vibration

When I want to downsize, I go with this one. It has a very tight wiggle and it's great for high pressured situations.

Lucky Craft LV RTO 200

When I need one that has a subtle fall, I go for this one. I like it better than the regular LV 500's.

Strike King Red Eye Shad Silent

And for when those days call for a stealthy approach, I reach for this one. The good ol' red eye shad still catches tons of fish!

I like the old XCalibur baits, now owned by Pradco. Very tough and great color selection, they even had one that resembled the old Monkey Trap color. I think they called it Toledo Gold or Rayburn something or other. When Cabela's had them on sale for $2 each, I bought 90 of them, so still have a pretty good stock of them, too. Hope this helps. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.

Cordell Super Spot. Caught some of my biggest fish on them.
Cheap. Decent hooks but sometimes I change them out to EWG.

My favorites are the 6th Sense 70x, and you can't go wrong with a Strike King Red Eye Shad, but the River2Sea Ruckkus is a waaaay overlooked lipless. The fall and action on this thing is awesome. The only downside is Tacklewarehouse only carries the 5/8th ounce size.

Rat-L-Traps! I did try Academy's H20 Express version last year and had pretty good luck with it for half the price.

I like the Spro Aruku too. I also throw a lot of the Red Eye shads. I have had times where the Aruku definitely out fished the Red Eye shad of a similar color. Probably different sound or slightly different color. Just gave me a lot of confidence in the Aruku shad.

Those academy traps with the round belly have caught a bunch of fish for me. Yo Zuri in baby bass is a killer as well. I like the Cordell suspending spots too. Getting harder to find though.

YoZuri and Red eye shad.

Livingston Lures Pro Ripper in blue/chrome. I thought the water activated bait fish sound was just a gimmick until I tried. Boy was I wrong. Pricey but effective.

Rat-L-Trap, One Knocker.

I may have to try the Livingston Lures Pro Ripper based on the above comment.
