Crankbaits only!

Here's the challenge: you can only take crankbaits out in the boat with you - and ONLY FIVE! From top to bottom - what are your favorite choices?  (Top water to deep divers - Colors optional.)

Topwater - Heddon Torpedo (Rear Prop)
1-2 feet - Shallow Shad Rap (or Baby One Minus)
2-4 feet - Husky Jerk
6-10 feet -  Shad Rap (All time favorite crankbait!)
Deep - Fat Free Shad  (Or Rapala Jointed Original on Rev. Rig)

I know I am the exception to the rule - but I'd rather catch a fish on a crankbait than anything else!  Love to hear what you guys throw as favorites!

I'll bite! I'm all over the place with brands that I prefer... I'm still figuring out a lot about crankbait fishing.

Topwater - Lucky Craft Sammy
1-2 feet - Lucky Craft Pointer or Cordell redfin (can't decide!)
2-4 feet - Speed Trap
6-10 feet -  Bandit (medium-series... 300?)
Deep - Baby Hot Lips (if I can get one that runs straight... hard to tune)

Shallow: 1-2 feet TD Minnow or Megabaits Rippin Minnow
