I usually carry a bag full of everything, mainly because I am trying to learn new techniques, not just use what has worked in the past. Getting stuck using one type of lure will limit your versatility. Used to, I would fish cranks exclusively, and did good. Year before last I started using jerkbaits alot and did good. Last year was the year of the plastic, and did great. This year will be the year of the finesse worm.
