I like them all, every company makes some gems, however, if I have to pick only one - Megabass for me. Top water lures one of the best, jerkbaits probably the best, crankbaits are really good.

For me, I would say Jackson. They have a WIDE variety of lures. I do a lot of stream trout fishing as well as lake fishing for bass and panfish. I found there is a hardbait for every situation. Paint quality is good, good hooks/split rings, variety of sizes most times and, prices are pretty good for a JDM brand.

Another cool thing is that they have some unconventional lures. Those can look gimmicky sometimes but, they catch fish.
Do they have a website? I can't seem to find it. Where do you typically order these from?

I think they more concentrated on trout and saltwater than bass.

Here is their website: https://jackson-quon.com/

If you scroll down a little on their site, you can see a full catalog. Many JDM sites have them. Bait Finesse Empire has really competitive pricing on Jackson lures. They don't carry the whole catalog but, a decent chunk of it.

That Paycheck bait looks a lot like a bait that was made by Reaction Innovations back in the day called the Vixen, no?
