Favorite Fishing Lures

Between all of the crank baits, jigs, spoons, plastic baits, and other lures I have stuffed into several dozen Plano boxes, I probably have hundreds of fishing lures to choose from. But if I had to pick one that has been the most consistent for catching fish for me the last few years, it would be a #6 Panther Martin Deluxe Fly spinner in orange / gold. I have caught everything from bass, bream, crappie, to bowfin, catfish, and perch on those little lures. With small diameter line and a light / UL combo, you can cast them a mile and never know what you might hook on the retrieve.

What is your favorite lure and why?

It’s really interesting to see the variety of lures listed in this thread. I think there has been very little (if any) overlap so far. I think it goes to show that fisherman are probably a lot more picky about the lures than the fish!

I’d absolutely agree with that... I’ve been fishing a spot frequently this year that is loaded with bowfin. They were crushing my favorite lure (the Panther Martin spinner), but just for fun one day, I went to try something different and tied on a small Spro BBZ-1 rat that I had bought in the spring. Within the first 8 minutes, I had two bowfin in the kayak. Wow, I thought. Who knew that bowfin loved rats?

I think I now have two favorite lures.
