Are you talking live bait or artifical?

If live bait for bass, mine would defintely be large "shiner" minnows, night crawlers and most definately mud eels.

Artificial for Bass is my favorite way of fishing, imo one cannot go wrong with a plastic worm, 4" or 6". A spinnerbait is always a good bet, crankbaits, jigs, topwaters all have their place and applications. If I am bass fishing I almost always have a buzzbait on one rod and a plastic worm or jig on another along with a spinnerbait/crankbait rod ready to go.

A favorite catfish bait would be chicken livers, Crappie would be minnows and small plastic grups and spinners. Bluegill favorites are crickets and meal worms/red worms. Sauger would be a jig head & plastic grub combo and a Silver Buddy type blade bait.
