Senko. You can fish anytime of year and you can catch fish by dead sticking it, you can rig it wacky style and try you luck that way, or cut it in half and fish it like Ned rig. There have been days when I have brought every lure under the sun with me and all I needed was bag a green pumpkin Senkos. It gets bit when nothing else is working. It has to be one of most versatile lures.
My just 1 would be a c-rig, it’s so versatile with weights anywhere from 1/4 to 1 1/2 oz and soft baits anywhere from 4” to 12”. Go to is 1 oz and watermelon red lizard with chartreuse dipped tail.
Good luck tomorrow!!!! You’re rocking it so far. Just got a bunch of mini-flip jigs and mini D chunk trailers based on this video. They look sweet! Can’t wait to try em out as soon as ice breaks up a bit here up North.
I am a French angler and I use the jigs all year round for catch pikes , bass and giant Catfishs. This is one of my go-to lures for winning competitions. I use the Cashion frog Rod in mag-hvy to get those big fish out.
Back in the day , Bob Troxxel a very good BASS regional angler used a small white Spinnerbait in Ohio ! Do believe he made it close to the Six Man Team !
Hands down a jig!!!! Been a staple for too many years and proven it's power time & time again. You can change it to be really compact or fully dressed out and not trimmed and I can't even begin to mention all the modifications. Next to that, my pick would be a worm. Both are very deadly year round
If I could only have one- well if I'm basing that on what would come through the most cover the best- be the most versatile- I would have to agree- the jig wins hands down- plus it's big fish catcher. I'd probably go 3/8ths instead of half ounce, I fish shallower water most of the time. But- if I'm basing it on what I've caught the most fish on- the one thing I seem to always be able to get bit on somewhere in the lake, river, pond I'm fishing- a 1/4-ounce underspin with a gold blade and a 3-inch keitech in sungill. No idea why, maybe because bluegill is so prevalent where I fish- but man this always gets bit. It's even over taken the ned rig as my favorite finesse presentation that I have the most confidence in. Last time I fished Pickwick it was all I could get bit on but, I had a good day with it- I switched to a silver blade and a shad-colored swimbait, the deps frilled shad- and they tore it up. Largemouth, small mouth, skip jack, crappie, even catfish hit it. The biggest I got on it that day was a 5-pound Smallie and the smallest was an 8-10-inch skip jack so- all sizes eat it.
Love a 3/8 blk/blu jig with a bruiser flash D-Bomb as a trailer the whole thing it's a big profile but gets bit in the spring of the year flippin wood, docks, an grass edges.. It gets big bites 💣
Mine would be a ned rig for sure. Given I fish a variety of water, including ponds, and sometimes with my son - a ned rig just catches fish all the time, any type of water, any depths, etc. It's boring - but if I was able to only use one lure for a year, that would be it.
Yes. A jig is my constant go to. I keep a huge supply on hand at all times. I know the bite can sometimes be slower but the quality is always better in my experience.
If I was any good with a jig then yeah it would mane perfect sense as it can go anywhere and anytime and get the job done. But I’m a crank bait guy. Sounds like I need to learn and use a jig more often!!
Wacky worm, period. I have caught the from 1 foot to 20 feet here in Texas up to 9.52 by adjusting the amount of weight. Very versatile and always catches them.

My go to is the repel 4" minnow. No matter how bad a fishing day is, I pull that out and I am saved.

I love the old school pick

Like throwing that jig!!!!!!👍🏻 Have to get some of those mini d chunks!! Stay Safe & God Bless!!!
Agree about the jig. Just ordered some mini flip, mini swim. Sorry haven't fished a missle jig yet. Thats my fault. Got plenty to try now

I think a green pumpkin shaky head would be my choice
Not a bad option
toss up between a senko style bait(any size/weightless) or a texas rig(with weight and soft plastic but preferably a ribbon tail worm).

In Louisiana where I'm from that D Bomb is hands down the best and only bait I need. Bruzer flash, bruzer or my favorite being bayou special.

Jig hands down!

Jigging spoon! I've caught everything on them! Easy to fish and teach for beginners!
Can we just call this video a tribute to Denny. Personally I'd be pulling a worm on a Carolina rig but yeah the jig is a weapon.

I agree!! But if I only have one It will have to be a crank bait for me.
Totally agree
Not to state the obvious, but senko
Has to be a top 3 choice
6-inch Plastic worm Texas rig
Yes. A jig is my constant go to. I keep a huge supply on hand at all times. I know the bite can sometimes be slower but the quality is always better in my experience.
I have to get my jig game together especially skipping docks. I fish Lake of the Ozarks and that’s all there is DOCKS!! Way to many!!
Spinner bait!!
3/8 oz white chatter bait with pearl white 4.25” Shockwave
Jig for sure.
I sure hope there isn't a price increase in the near future due to some other insanity out there...
Already happened and hope it the last one for a while
I like to know how u ran u cable for hummingbird transducer on ur jack plate, I’m lost , please help

I'd have to say a watermelon trick worm. I can do so much with it: wacky, weightless, shakeyhead, tx or c rig, neko rig, ned rig or even dropshot it
Jewel pro spider jig,green pumpkin with touch of purple in the skirt
I agree,,jig. But I wouldn’t overlook a spinnerbait🤔
Liability in clear water
A jig
Definitely a jig for me too.
Vmc dominator shakyhead with a Zoom brushhog!!!
Yup jig or chatterbait
Mine would be a Ned Rig, I never go fishing without one.
Why do you like the ned rig over the senko?
Shallow Crank. A 1.5.
wouldnt that be considered 2 lures (jig + trailer)?
It’s fished as one lure
Is that a spare hub in front of the spare tire?
Yes
Wacky worm, period. I have caught the from 1 foot to 20 feet here in Texas up to 9.52 by adjusting the amount of weight. Very versatile and always catches them.
That’s too easy. A jig. It can be fished in any depth at any speed.
Jig city
Pro jig
I catch big one doing that
Bladed jig simple lol
Spin trap
D-bomb. I can fish this many ways , hot or cold weather, even cut in in half and use for dropshot. Jig and Chunk are two baits. Stop cheating lol
Of course I like this 🙌🏼
EASY…….jig.
Shakey head for me in Ohio!
