1. rooster tails

2. plastic worms and other soft plastics will cover every possible situation and eventuality.

3. Spinnerbaits, Buzzbaits, Divers, Topwaters, Stickbaits, Jointed, and Rattle Baits. My favorite brands are Strike King and Booyah for Buzzbaits, and Spinnerbaits. Rapala, Storm, Bluefox, and Bass Pro Shop brand Divers, Topwaters, Stickbaits, and Jointed's. Rattle Baits for a classic try the Rat-T-Trap lures they are classic and are excellent for catching Bass as well as another two classics the Jitterbug, and Hula Popper.

4. I coulda sworn I answered something like this a week or so ago...

For surface lures, I like Rebel Pop-R, Lobina Rico, Heddon Zara Spook, Heddon Super Spook, Heddon Super Spook, Jr, Heddon Rattlin' Spook, Heddon One-Knocker Spook, Strike King Rage Tail Toad, Strike King Rage Tail Shad and a few others. These listed are the lures that I primarily use most.

For bottom fishing or deep water, I like 4 inch Gary Yamamoto Fat Ika, 4 1/2 inch straight-tailed California Worms plastic worm on a drop shot rig, 6 inch straight-tailed Roboworm plastic worm on a drop shot rig, 7 inch straight-tailed Roboworm plastic worm on a Texas rig, 8 inch curly-tailed Bass Pro Shops home brand plastic worm on a Texas rig, 10 inch curly-tailed BPS plastic worm on a Texas rig, 12 inch curly-tailed BPS plastic worm on a Texas rig. Other than plastics, I like a 1/2 ounce football head jig with a craw trailer, a 3/4 ounce football head jig/craw trailer, or a big 1 to 1 1/2 ounce football head jig/craw trailer.

I don't do much crankbait, spinnerbait, or buzzbait fishing. I dwell in swimbaits a bit, but I don't think you use 8-, 9-, 10-. 11-, or 12-inch rainbow trout looking baits much in Canada.

5. For one all around bait would be a Gary Yamamoto Senko, u can do anything with it, texas rig, florda rig, wacky rig, shakey head, stickbaiting, it can fit all situations easily
