sometimes they work better than the "main" bait... my favorite is the tried and true red gill... I made a bunch a number of years back from cedar that held a hook with several hackle feathers..it looks like a mini cedar lure that you troll for tuna... I took a 58 lb bass on one @ head of the meadow beach in the fall of '86 fished ahead of a yellow Gibbs darter...that fish made me a believer.
I second that on the redgill; Black or white, doesn't matter day or night.

One year about 70% of what I caught was on a teaser. I once asked Dave Hammock of Murat's why to use a teaser and he said "why wouldn't you want to have 2 lures in the water at the same time".
I like clousers usually olive and white. Only thing that I don't like about droppers is when you think you have a huge fish only to realize that it is two much smaller fish, one on the dropper and the other on the plug.
