You’re in this new bass tournament out in the deep south, where bass grow huge. The water is far from clear, so there is no sight fishing. You enter the tournament thinking it’s just any old tournament, and to find out, you can only take 5 lures with you. FIVE!!! What would they be? Here’s what i would take. (NO SOFT PLASTICS, they are not allowed in the tournament, only hard-baits.)

1.) Cotton Cordell Super Spot. In some situations, i like it better than a Rat-L-Trap, and it has proved to be MORE productive than the Rat-L-Trap. Even though i think they are both great lures.

2.) Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap. They will bring in bass in the muddiest of waters, around the world. I would stick to a bright color, such as firetiger, or chartreuse.

3.) 1/2 oz. Booyah Spinnerbait. The bass should be able to feel, and see the big spinnerbait. I would have a chartreuse/white skirted one.

4.) Strike King Pro Model 1/4 oz. Crankbait, yea you guessed it, in Sexy Shad color.

5.) Rebel Pop-R in Green Perch. Even though hardly any tournaments are won with poppers, i would still want to see a bass hit one hard, and it may be more productive than the other lures.

What would you bring?
