I never sneeze to be demazed at the number of anglers who fish the same lures, the same way, in the same waters all year long...just because they caught fish on them one time. ...or, that is the only lure they know how to fish.
Much better to accumulate a good mental database of info on the various waters you fish...for the species you target most...at different times of the year under different weather and water conditions. And then go prepared with a range of lures that should produce under the prevailing conditions...and be prepared to go to plan B or C if plan A doesn't work.
But whatever you do, have fun and enjoy the experience. The success of a fishing trip is not always measured by the number of fish you catch. At least it shouldn't be.
