Smokin Silver is the best fresh water bass bait on average I catch 28 fish per 3:00 trips with it. or the soft plastic frog is best for fishing soft water bass. bass just love plastic frogs.
Worms..They will catch a variety of species.
Minows or Night Crawlers. They are predatory fish.

I'm not sure, but I usually just use live worms and they work really good for me...

A herring is a bait fish. They are a rather large bait fish, however they are. They are similar to bunker. You can additionally eat it. It is a very good bait for striped bass. When you use it for bait, normally cut it up because of its size. However, you can use it as bait as the whole fish.
