Ok, this topic usually gets quite a bit of chatter......So I pose the question, what is your favorite all purpose Lure? Bait? and Rig? I would have to say the most productive Lure I use is a Stingsilver Jig, this has provided many dinners for me. I have caught just about every fish in the bay on these things too...well not every fish but you get the point. The trout love them, Blues like anything shiny, Stripers can't resist one jigged in front of thier face etc and so on

Bait???? Well I'd probably have to say Cut Menhaden on the beach and Squid in the bay, again very versitle with the fish you can catch......and Rigs....Well thats pretty easy without much explanation either. When Fishing the bottom from a stationary location (ie. Anchored boat, Surf, bank or pier) My favorite is defenitely the fish-finder rig, however when drifting in a boat I just can't beat the old standard double bottom rig.....
