I'm curious if you guys know of any lures that catch multiple species. I have a few roadrunners.and have been told they work great. Are there any others out there other than live bait?

Rooster Tails are the best imo. Chartreuse or White 1/8oz. Second Favorite would be the Road Runners....

Small 1/4 oz rattle trap, luhr Jensen spoons, and h+h spinner baits will catch lots of different species
Beetle spin also

roadrunners, roostertails will catch everything. get some roadrunners that are jsut the heads and you can attach any kind of grub or soft plastic body/color you want.and the packs of heads are cheaper than the 2 marobu packs.

Roadrunners are good for crappie.

For sandbass, and 1.5oz squarebill rattling KVD in Sexy Shad has always worked for me. Just troll it.

I've got a tackle box full of spinners, jigs of all types and colors, and the majority of the time I'll usually catch all my fish on a solid white curly tailed roadrunner.
Keep those roadrunners in good supply, because after you try everything else you'll end up going back to them by the end of the day.

I have caught lots of Sandies with a rocky top Char/white that are made for crappie. And have caught a lot crappie, also a few LMB.

If I had to have one bait it would be the roadrunner

Rooster tails, roadrunners,Little George's and beetle spins. For the longest time before my fishing got really out of hand..That was pretty much what I kept in my arsenal. If I could not catch anything with those lures well then I was not going to catch anything at all that day. I usually did fairly well with those lures. At least I thought so.
