I use my deep cranks all the time, never catch anything, but I use them.Alabama Rigs and Deep Cranks. Used them all the time when I lived in Bama, no more!
I didn't even count the Alabama rigs I have because I don't have a rod heavy enough to properly fish them, and probably couldn't if I did.
Heh, I've climbed a tree to get a $10 dollar lure back, I would be stripping down for a swim if I snagged a 60 dollar lure.huge topwater bait that i always carry with me for the right moment - fills up half my bag and looks pretty sweet
but in 4 years i used it twice - 60 $ well spent
Least used,I don't know.I try what ever is working.I don't have any big swim baits so I go to my confidence baits.If they don't work I go to my other options.I love buzzing a spinnerbait or a buzzbait if you action on top.Situations depend on active or inactive fish.I have caught some great fish on worms and the unliked senko.You don't have to buy Yamamoto at $8 a bag,Basspro has a great alternative.They give you a bag full for half the price.Probably my least used would be the frog.I'd rather run something across the top and look for a reaction or follow off the drop.
Overall i would say....
#1 Popper
#2 Dropshot/shaky head
#3 Senkos
#4 Deepcranks
#5 Spinnerbaits
a better question would be what do you throw hahaha
Pretty much anything besides those 5... Although im starting to get into finesse. I'll throw any other topwater besides a average popper( Im not counting lures that have that ability to pop like hollow body popping frogs and heddon chug-an-spook) I don't like senkos since im not after a limit im just big fish hunting....I got no confidence in deep cranking and i'll only throw spinnerbaits on good conditions.
You can catch me throwing anything besides those mention.
