That depends. Fresh water? Salt water? Trolling? Casting? Cold water? Warm water? Deep water? Shallow water? The above is true. Rivers usually have flies (fly fishing in waders) and if you aren't into making them then go to any fishing store and ask which ones are the hottest. If you go onto the web you can find out the lake you want to go too and what the fish are biting on best. Sometimes there are hatches of different insects and you need to copy them artificially as best you can. For lakes you can use leaches (most of us don't like them), flies or certain small spoons (silver/gold/black with silver dots.) While fishing stores make big bucks off guys who like fishing I've fished since I was 9 years old and caught 2 Coho (live in Canada) with one of my silver earrings. LOL You can also use worms in some lakes. Our oceans some fish like small herring and you can generally buy them at the docks. Go onto www.Google.com Type in the name of your lake and be sure you put what country you are from. You'll get all the advice you need.
