Fun, huh? I've used lots, but I have a deer hair frog that is a surface lure. It is a blast to catch bass on. Poppers work well also. Just like spinning/casting, surface bait is very dramatic if you can get into the right time when they are effective. Otherwise, the wooly worm and wooly buggers are always good choices, and I've seen woolies with curl tails, too. Some of the minnow imitations are good, too. Also, hopper patterns, crawdads, or anything imitating the food where you are fishing. I have also tied up some dragon fly imitations that work well on bass and panfish. Just look at what they are eating and throw a fly that copies it. Then comes the fun part.
