if nothing else in the book is working then live bait it is! just an opinion from an opportunist like alot of us out there.

crawlers

My pick is live bait, after all that's what most artificials are trying to imitate!

[eddierod]

Minnows, Spin Beetles, Tubes... Not in that order though

Would that be blue and silver ?

Actually one of my top two color combos, white/chartreuse also.

The question was:  what does everybody choose to go with when the going gets tough?  That means, if you're (meaning YOU) are a notorious live bait fisherman, what do you do if it's not cutting the cake for you ?
 Or in plain english, if you didn't have an orange and white lead pin bobber, a jig head and a minnow, what would you do ?

White 1/8 oz. marabou roadrunner.

One of the greatest multi-species lures ever invented.....

jointed rapala     tube jigs under a slip bobber can catch about anything that swims also. I try to avoid live bait..., but if the going gets tough nightcrawlers will catch any fish that swims.
