5 lures... ouch! O.k. I'll try

1.Kietech Tungsten 1/4 Jig Model 1 with a 2-3/4" Yum Craw Papi trailer.

2. 5" Green Pumpkin Senko- Though weightless would be most used option it's versatile enough to fish on a weighted texas rig, Carolina rig etc.

3. Reaction Innovation Sweet Beaver- just a great fish catcher no matter how you rig it

4. 1/2 oz Strike King Red Eye Shad (Cold water) or Lucky Craft RC 1.5 (Warm Water)

5. Jackall Muscle Deep 15 Plus- there are other Deep Divers I like such as the DD 22. This one cast into the wind better and the smaller body size will also appeal to smallmouths (use in the summer)- late winter or spring I'll sub with a Pointer 100

1.- Zoom Trickworm

2.- 1/2 oz jig

3.- 5 " curlytail grub

4.- 3/8 oz single colorado spinnerbait

5.- Rapala Shad Rap

#1.Tube(watermelon blk. flake)

#2.Yum Dinger

#3.Gambler Ugly otter

#4.White/chart. spinnerbait

#5.3/8 oz brown jig with Joe's brown trailer.

1- 4" BPS Stik-o on a 1/16 shaky head

2- 4" BPS Stik-o on a 1/16 shaky head (in case I lose the first one)

3- RI Sweet Beaver

4- Zoom Baby Brush Hogs (Preferably watermelon color)

5- Jackall TN/70 lipless crank

1. XCalibuer XR50 - Chrome/Blue/Orange

2. Lake Fork Craw Tube - Green Pumpkin

3. Spro Jr. Frog - White Black

4. 5" Senko - Green Pumpkin

5. Mann's Baby -1 - Fire Shad

That covers about 90% of what I'm successful with throughout the year.  Next bait would probably have been a white spinnerbait.
