I'm still looking for 1 to join a group going to Canada in August fishing for walleye and northern pike. You'll learn a !ot.
IF I had the money and time that would be fun but sadly being a college student both are a negative.
Now personally I use pretty much only 3-4 curly tail jigs in most of my fishing and have done well enough to almost go semi pro with my dad.
Jig Head
I use unpainted 1/8(rarely)-1/32oz(all the time) round jig heads
Bodys
Really I only use 3 colors
ice blue and chartreuse slider paddle tail in 2in
watermelon and chartreuse slider paddle tail 2in
And most 95-99% of the time
2in white and yellow body with a bright chartreuse tail curly tail
That last bait has worked 95% of the time I go fishing over the past 12 years and works almost universally across the country as well when retrieved at a pace of 1 revolution every 1-2sec.
For crankbaits I use a fire tiger, silver belly green top, silver and blue in a 2in bait. If I want to use a spinner bait I just use one of the mentioned jigs and put a spinner blade you can get at walmart on it in the smallest size.
