What do you like to use when fishing Florida? rubbers? spinners? spoons?

How good are live worms on a bobber down there?
 
keep the worms up north ya yank (jk), not many fish can pass up a fat live shrimp. greenbacks are a top bait too. as far as lures go a 1/4oz jig with a plastic tail in neutral colors works all day. yozuri makes some great plugs, the crystal minnow is great. topwaters in the low light hrs work great too. i like mostly spooks.


oh i hope your talking about SW....
 
Oops - no, this is FRESHWATER :)
 
lol i just use plastic worms or bluegill for bass. worms work too. sry lol.

Where will you be fishing in FL? If you are targeting largemouth bass, not too many baits beat a large shiner (which you can get at bait shops, just make sure you have a good battery powered air bubbler to keep them alive) Ive also had good luck with topwater plugs like this:

I cant help you out if you are going to peacock bass, as they dont live as far north as I am. I dont do much freshwater fishing, but I hope this helps.
 
rappalas .....for pbass shiners etc... other exotics take worms shiners etc.... you really have to bring it all and adjust accordingly
