Get you some Mini-me's. You can also have them special built if you want special colors.

With the sheer number of Mfg.'s on the market, just use the standard female approach and pick the ones that look the prettiest. roflmao

Megabass SV-3 spinnerbait......seems to catch fish everywhere I throw it and holds up well. For buzzbaits I like the Megabass Jamaica Boa. I usually use tge white python color.

Just hit the closest tackle shop. They'll have a wall full to choose from... Dan

For spinner baits, I reach out to Paul at ACT lures. He custom makes them and can build them with piano wire for massive vibrations. For buzzbaits, I reach out to Joey at Flatlands. His buzzbaits are amazing. They instantly rise and can be slow rolled or cranked in faster, depending on the bite.

I use a War Eagle Spinnerbait and Strike King Triple Wing Buzzbait but recently have had better success since switching from the Buzzbait to throwing a Berkeley Choppo.

Oldham Spinnerbaits.

Since Strike King discontinued their “pro-model” I use their
triple wing buzzbait, I remove the triple wing on some and put on an off center flat blade. And some of those I’ll add a clacker blade.

Lots of variables (are they eating big gizzards or little threadfins? are there white bass in the lake? )

For the price/quality ratio, availability, and keeping it simple; War Eagle spinner baits and buzz baits.

whatever you decide to get, just make sure you get a bunch of them in different sizes and colors, that way you will have a lot of them years later that are still in the package of [censored] you never use. cheers
