Best all round lure

We hear arguements about the '06 as the best all-round cartridge.

What you fisherman think is the best all round lure?

My choice is the white bucktail jig.

 I like lots of lures, but when I got to thinking about it, the red and white daredevil  with brass back has accounted for brook,brown, rainbow, lake and splake trout, Kokanee, nothern, walleye, small and large mouth bass, crappie, and even got 1 catfish on one once.

  With a kill count like that it'ld be pretty hard to displace that one in my tackle box as the best allround.

Y'all ain't got the right perspective. 

THE best all-round lure?  38D's, nicely shaped.

Hah!  Foo

For rainbow Trout  A castmaster...any color, and a black with yellow spots panther martin

For small mouth bass  A chartruese saturn worm rigged Carolina style, A blue, black, or chartruese grub or plastic worm

For Large mouth bass   A chartruese, or white spinner bait ..slow rolled. Blue plastic worm, or a blue and white rapala.

For Catfish  Docs blood bait mixed with garlic salt and injected into a plastic bulb (various fishing companies make them)

Those O Mepps spinners are deadly on trout.  I cut off two of the three points on the treble and they don't hang up on the bottom nor submerged tree roots.
