SPRO Little John MD, particularly in citrus shad. I didn't believe in them until I tried them. I cracked jokes about people spending that kind of money on crankbaits until I actually tried one. Now I have probably around 250 different SPRO crankbaits scattered throughout my boats and shop.

I have several, because I do not have confidence in most baits, but IN MYSELF to figure them out. Lately, I have been throwing a Swimbait on a 30 acre lakes, I have the lake record at a 7.4 lb bass, lots of 4s and 5s too. But my overall favorite is a CB, depending on depth, a shallow BB 1 minus, a Bandit 100 to 600, Bill Norman DD series or DLN series or Middle N. Some home made cranks that go about $15 to $25 each. Shallow to Deep. Rapala DT series, going all the way down to the DT20. You get the idea. Hope this helps. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.
