For 2012 it would be Savage Gear Sandeel Slugs which made me park for awhile a fleet of my trusty pull baits.

in my opinion, good bass lures are soft plastics. And topwaters. A Gary Yamamoto Fat Ika is a good plastic. There's a number of 4", 6", and 8" plastic worms that are good too. Roboworm, Yum, Berkely, Terminator, Hooker; all make good plastic worms.Heddon Zara Spook, Rebel Pop-R, Strike King Rage Tail Toad and Shad; are all great topwater lures. But the Spook does require the walk-the-dog retrieve. So... if you're not good at walking-the-dog type lures, the Sammy isn't for you.Stick to soft plastics. Texas and dropshot rigs. Worked especially slow.
