If you could only choose 1 out of 3 lures to catch bass. Which would you choose?

That green pumpkin red flake is great but they fly off the shelves at Cabelas! My son, (50) thinks I’m nuts but everything from blue flec to natural worm orange work great at the right time in the right place. Spent years and a retirement check with alternatives, shad raps, rappelas and rubber frogs and cray fish...jitterbugs and hula poppers, then found Yamamoto senkos and I’m stuck on them....and my son ain’t doubting me!!! Took them up to Bemidji, Mn last fall and actually got bored with all the action!

Like you when i fist started bass fishing i wanted to try it all. I've tried various brands of stickbaits. Senkos wook best for me. Ochos close 2nd but they are soft. Try natural shad sometime. I've had luck with them when no other color would work. Real good in clear water
high voltage pulse generator (pinch)!
hahaha...just kidding.
though its safer on the fish that trying to keep the hook!

Out of my 3 favorite lures to catch bass with:
Panther Martin Spinner
Ned Rig
Rapala Countdown
I would choose the Panther Martin - 14oz Black Body/Gold Blade
You are talking bass. I would therefore have to pick the spinner bait last. On spinner baits, I have caught dozens of different salt water fish, as well as bluegill, perch crappie and nearly every other fresh water fish that swims in U.S. water, but I have not, and beginning to believe I will never catch a bass, large or small mouth, on a spinner bait. I will keep trying, but have my soft plastics and hard baits for back up.
Swim jig with a trailer is my go to bait, especially in the spring and early summer.
I fished with coworker niknamed jig and pig swore by it
