| If you had to use one lure for the whole season, what lure would it be? You have unlimitied quantity and colors, but it must be the same lure. Reasons why you chose this lure would be appreciated.
I would have to say a Super D swimbait for it's versatility and ability to get to all depths.

Location: Bemidji, MN | pacemaker. I like topwater. Most fun to fish, plus the ticking hypnotizes me. |

| I would have to say a Bull Dawg or Suzy Sucker type lure. It can be worked as a jerk bait, straight retrieved, as a jig or even trolled. Work it shallow, deep or in between. |

| Perka.
I make them, so I get any color that I want.
I can fish it fast or slow, shallow or deep.
I like to take my time and fish it slow with lots of pauses so I last longer. I aint no pup no more.
This question is asked lots, and my answer is always the same.

Location: Northwoods | SVT - 5/13/2008 11:34 PM id say pete mainas dying fish. Hey SVT, I was wondering what type of retrieve that you use on that dying fish. I never had any luck with it. My favorite go-to-lure, would be the Phirana (in a crappie pattern). Thanks, Joe |

Location: So. Illinois | For numbers of fish and confidence (where I fish), I would have to go with Rapala's Super Shad Rap. Easy on the body to cast. Easy to retrieve, twitch, troll, or work as a top water. If I want to go deeper, I add a in-line weight. Would have to go with Fire Tiger or maybe gold or silver chrome.

| 1.Spinnerbait (2 1/4 oz. Raddog w/#8 Lakeland Willow)
1A. Curley Sue
The spinnerbait wins for it's ability to worked IN and around cover, including weeds, wood and rock. Both are great tools that can be worked top to bottom, open to close. Steve |

| I am sure it is the Perka, a secret bait I have not yet used. I am always sure the grass is greener. There WAS a conspiracy, and yes they were fake, nobodies are that perfect...
Once the Perka Market crashes I plan to actually get one and use it. Until then I will probably stick with the other 4-10 baits that one would class as the usual suspects

Location: Ontario | Same as Fisher, ten inch jointed Believer. 'The Second Best Bait For Everything.' There are better topwaters, there are better crankbaits, there are better trolling baits, there are better heavy cover lures, but none that roll it all into one like a Beleiver does. Got one tied on all year, and find myself using it for lots of different stuff. A wicked surface bait. |

| I fished with a guide on Crow lake one year and he had one lure for Crow and one lure for LOTW. One was black and orange and the other was green and yellow.
Spinnerbait, final answer. |

Location: Rhinelander. | Zig-zag bait or manta. I can work either fast or slow and the zig_zag I can let sink to a desired depth. Its just a fact glide baits work from oper till close.
