If you could only have 5 hardbaits, what would they be? (Jerkbaits, topwaters, crankbaits, etc) if you could include the brand that would be great. Thanks!

I can't choose - you pick five ~

What brand is the lipless crank in the bottom right corner?

I would say two top waters (a frog and a prop bait), a spinner bait (white), a buzz bait (green skirt), and some sort of shallow running crank bait.  I know jerk baits are very effective but I've had awful success using them so they didn't make the cut.

This but I'd probably trade the Rattlin Rogue for an Ish Biggie Poppa and the Pop-R for a Whopper Plopper. It's a close call on the Pop-R or the Plopper.
