I like the Arkansas shiner color in the 6" variety with a 1/2oz leadhead on 8' rod (1/2 - 2oz). Also use black and white and blue over white with good success. Lighter colors in the day and darker at night. Just picked up some 7.5" white sluggos to use this year.
Have used the larger 9" size too - white, blue/white and black. Used to just use them with 1.5oz jig heads, but last year rigged some up with double hooks and the cut-off nails for weight (OTW article by Steve McKenna) and they worked very well.
Have used the big Fin-S-Fish too. I like the Sluggos better, but they work too.
Seems to be a few more soft plastics out this spring to compete against the sluggo - I picked up one of the alternatives last weekend and am eager to try them out.
