I think Mepps spinners, Roostertails and the 1/8" oz. clip on jig spinner baits have caught the most varying species for me. Pike ,Muskies to panfish .I even caught some groupers on the mepps.....
My most favorite lure though is an old white and red Zara spook , when pike or muskies hit it it is a thriller!!!!!

P.S as far as any lure , I think the elk hair caddis in various sizes has caught more pounds of fish, trout , panfish , bass and more then a few chain and grass pickerel.........
