Being you have such a large amount of different fish you are targeting I would suggest you look at some online posts.

One I have found for catfish can befound here, I love this site!

And a good one I have found for Bass is here, great pointers!

as far as your other fish I would suggest googleing the species and tips for fishing for them.

Fisher_King:

Bass- If I was on a budget and wanted to choose the highest percentage lures for LA Bass I’d choose Jigs & 8-10″ Texas Rigged and or Wacky Rigged worms. Here are some inexpensive examples of each:

1. Jigs- 1/4- 3/8OZ size, (Black/Blue, Black & Cajun Crawfish colors), MAKE SURE to use a corresponding colored jig trailer- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_28418____SearchResults

2. 8″ Worm- (Rigged Texas style with a Gamakatsu 4/0 EWG Offset Hook) (Colors?- Red Shad Green, Black/Blue Tail, Plum/Blue)- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_28418____SearchResults

3. 10″ Worm- Rigged the same as the 8″ Worm, (These worms have won numerous bass fishing tournaments all over the US)- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_73982____SearchResults

4. 5-6″ Wacky Rigged Senko type Worm- (Rigged on a 2/0 Owner weedless Wacky hook)- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_36703_100007000_100000000_100007000_100-7-0

Those are the “highest %” lures to use year round for Bass.

White Perch, (or White Bass)- Good lures for Whites are small Inline Spinners, small GULP products and small 1/8 OZ Rattle Trap type lures. Here are some inexpensive examples of each:

1. Inline Spinners- (1/8 OZ in Minnow colors)- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_15446____SearchResults

2. Berkley GULP products- (Rig these on a 1/16 – 1/8 OZ jighead and under a Slip-bobber)- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_103161____SearchResults

Bream (or Bluegill)- Good lures for Bluegills are Beetle Spin’s, Small octopus tube Jigs, and small floating minnow lures. Here are some inexpensive examples of each:

1. Beetle Spin- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_15602____SearchResults

2. Octopus tube soft plastic- (rig these on a 1/16 OZ jig)- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_74243____SearchResults

3. Small Floating Minnow- (1/16 OZ size- you need to use super lite line to cast these- your best line for this size lure is Power Pro 2/8) Rapala’s Original Floating Minnow.

Catfish- Catfish love bait- using lures for catfish is a waste of time.

Gar- Gar will attack everything but they usually throw the hook. There are some nylon thread lures you can make- but I suggest you don’t target Gar. Although they do put up a good fight, they aren’t very tasty……

Hope this helps ya?
