id say to check a basspro store or cabelas. berkeley makes some dang good powerbait plastic worms.
There are many fishing lures out there and something like Big Gulp or Get’s ‘em but I have fished for 37 years and I always go back and have luck with long dangling Canadian nightcrawlers. I, personally, wouldn’t waste my money on the lures. I have great success with my nightcrawlers !
All I know is i won’t go anywhere without a jig, senko, or Berkley chigger crawl these are what i will be throwing or in my box this year. Good luck and catch that big fish of a lifetime.
Chatterbait style swimming jigs are getting more and more popular. Booyah has some new hd spinnerbaits (hd is heavy duty, not high def) The Yum Doozie is a new tube that has the wag of a worm because of it’s length.The Terminator hybrid is not that new, but it’s not really old. It is a spinner and buzz combo (can’t really speak on the effectiveness of this lure) Strike King’s website has the online catalog of 08 lures up right now.
Don’t do Bass anymore, but a buddy of mine does and he be a faaanatic, so much of one, at times I think I’m conversin’ w/ Bill Dance
!! He recently turned me onto this link, which I personally think has some NIIIICE, reeeal NICE lookin’ Bass plugs, lures, soft bait, etc.. Am placin’ an order for some of their “Craws” (Stand’n Yabbie), for Steelhead fishin’. Not sure if this be a MUST for 2008 but check it out, go through site and see what ya’ think.;)

Well Bass Pro sends out an issue of that exact thing in december for christmas shopping check it out
Cool site FishSteelhead!
Absolutley NOT!! The same lures/baits we use today are the same ones they used 40 years ago. Some modifications, new colors, but that is it.
The MANUFACTURERS are the ones trying to convince us we need “new” lures. We don’t. Use what you have.
number one best bass lure berkley power bait weedless rigged worm caught a 23″ in. bass on it
of course there are…you need to pick up a white or yellow 1/16 ounce mini-king spinnerbait at Walmart or a local fishing shop. this lure is a bass killer and will catch you 10 bass in an hour in a non pressurized lake. this is a primetime lure that has caught me perch, pickerel, bass, sunnies, bluegills, numerous trout, and I’m sure it would catch pike and walleye but these species are not near where I fish. pick one up I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Yes Zoom sraight tailed worms, Texas Rigged.
I reccomend to you that you buy a 3/8 oz Rattle Trap and strip the paint off of it and repaint it with nail polish HOT PINK…completely cover it hooks and all.
No eyes painted nothing, but a solid pink Rattle Trap.
Make sure you use at least a 14 lb test at the minimum and 17 lb test max your gonna need it. Largemouth Bass love em!
Fly fishing is good for that bass fishing?
How about some Lucky Craft jerkbaits with a REAL FISH SKIN COVERING! I know you want one! Find them here along with other great bass tourney winning products like the e21 Legend Carrot Stix (30% graphite, 70% carrots!).

The 2008 iCast show won’t be until next summer when the best of 2008 tackle will be made public. We will all be waiting with baited breath.
Edit*
The ‘Thumbs Downer’ missed me! Must be passed his bed time.
Yes! Go to any tackle store and grab a pack of Lake Fork ‘Live’ Magic Shad. It’s Brand New and is a Must Have soft-plastic swimbait/fluke style bait for me. It has a great action, good scent and really catches good bass. Great in and around weeds and laydown wood structure. The watermelon red color rigged on an extra-wide gap 5/0 hook works best for me so far.
If you like fishing a Zoom Fluke and catching bass…. you will LOVE this thing!
