If you were going to be stranded with only one fishing lure to use to fish with, what would it be, and why?

A Johnson Silver Minnow.  Because it is relatively weedless--and you don't want to lose it, because it imitates a variety of baitfish, it's caught a lot of fish over the years, and it's versatile enough to use in fresh or salt water.

The best retrieve is the one that catches fish on any given day.  Different retrieves work in different circumstances.  Experiment a little until you hit one that works where you are.  Watch the insects or minnows you are mimicking and copy them. Good luck.

the flounder in jersey just go nuts over marabou jigs.You'll need light tackle,4 lb test is perfect, but the just cant resist an eighth oz jig. I like green,yellow white and grey jigs. Bass Pro has them real cheap.There is no need to tip them with bait.I'll guarantee if you try this you'll kill them.

KCDude,\n\nI'm not sure which power bait you're talking about, but weather it's a worm, lizzards, or catfish bait... it should sink with just the weight of a hook.  All of these baits are best fished on the bottom unless you want to fish a worm as a topwater - then you should hook it "wacky" style or use light weight hooks.  There are better soft plastic baits to use for topwater if that's your goal.  Good Luck fishing!!

I think your looking for a shoe. If so you may want to try a different catagory or look on ebay. I don't think Nike makes fishing baits!LOL but if they did they would probably be cool LOL

When I go fishing for trout I use small spoons & spinners.  Sometimes a spinner with a crawler at the end works good.  If your going to just bait fish use a slip bobber, jig (green & yellow), and now for the bait you can use corn, night crawler, red worms (best), minnows, and crickets.  Marshmellows I heard works good but i never tried it.  Good luck!

Depends, are you going to "troll" for your Sea-bass? If so, use the rapala's/yozuri combo. However, if you are anchored on a spot, I would try live bait or cut-bait. Perhaps, a 1/2 oz. white jig with a white "Gulp" body............depends on the conditions of weather, water clarity, and current. Definitely use "Berkley Fire-Line". It works great. A close second is "Spider-wire".\nYour best bet is to call the local bait shop in your area and ask them for more details on catching Sea-Bass.\nGOOD LUCK!....

It is a spinner- tear or marquis shaped metal and \nbait- minnow, fuzzy or any bait you add to the hook that is also on it. \n\nGo visit www.anglersupply.com and you will see;)

Use skein or power-bait with a #12 treble hook on a 6lb fluorocarbon leader with 1/8oz sinker and an indicater(small bober) try varios depths and allow to flow with current.\nSingle eggs or minnows on a snelled egg hook. as above.\nMaggots on a black mini-foo with split shot 2' above and indicator is my favorite.\nCasting spoons also works.\n\nhttp://steelheaduniversity.com/jigs.html

Depends on what your trying to catch, but myself I always use threadfin herring and squid. The squid is like rubber, tough and resiliant and the herring breaks up and gives off the oils that fire them up. Just my opinion but whatever you go with put squid on there, too...

Spinning outfit will work fine - ultra light would be best.  You want to use like 2 or 4 lb mono especially when it is sunny.  My favorite lure is a spoon called a "Super Duper". "Rooster Tail" is also a good lure for me.  You want very small lures/baits.  That is one of the reasons you want light line.  It easier to cast a light lure with light line.  The other reason is a heavy line is more likely to spook the fish. You also what to have your line in the water at first light or as early as is legal.  I have found that the first hour in the morning is the most productive.  My last word of advice is to patronize a tackle shop that is local to where you are fishing. This is a great place to find out what bait is hot and what location is hot.

Niether!  They are both gimmick lures that have very low catch ratio's.  Save your money and get some YUM dingers.  You will catch way more fish, like bass, than with either of the lures you mentioned.  Tight lines.

Any day.  So what if you catch nothing.  \nTwo old sayings from over UK:  'When the wind blows from the East, the fish bite the least. When the wind blows from the West, the fish bite the best'.   The other which is my favourite:  'A beautiful days fishing, does not count as part of your life'.   Tight lines, wish I could join you.
