What is your favorite soft plastic lure for Small mouth bass?
I would have to say mine is the 4" Salt Stick by Maniac in the arm green color and rigged weightless Wacky.
How about you?

Only one eh? I'm going to have to say a straight tail 6" Aaron's Magic colored Robo Worm on a drop-shot rig. When all else fails I can pretty much always catch a few with this. There are definitely some other good choices out there that have their time and place, but I keep this one in my panic box.

Maybe this is boring, but I like either a 3in Yamamoto Curley tail grub in smoke or green pumpkin or a 4 inch senko in white pearl rigged weightless and weedless.

Thats easy it would be a three and half inch tube jigs. you can work the hole water column from the top to the bottom. use it weightless to walk it like a dog or sub pop it. or add weight to work the bottom,

Gary Yamamoto grubs 3'' 4'' with a 1/8 oz. lead head.
Or a senko rigged my own way never seen it don't know what to call it or weedless if throwing in cover no weight. Colors change with the day and water for me, favorite would be watermelon pearl laminate,The girl loves cinnamon with black and purple flake grubs.

[cool][#0000ff]I buy many of my tubes in bulk...in plain colors, like clear sparkle, smoke sparkle, white and pearl. Then I carry a wide assortment of Sharpie permanent markers...in both wide and fine point. I only make up a couple at a time, because the colors will "bleed" after a few days. But, on the water you can doctor them, let them dry for a couple of minutes...dab them with a rag or napkin and you are good to go.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]One hint...wipe off any oil on them before you try to apply the colors.[/#0000ff]
