Need to clear something up

[maseyferguson05]

Now i just got back into fishing and have been doing it alot lately. Just got myself a nice casting rod and reel and am beginning to get pretty good with it. Now i need to start building up my tackle again. With that i have a few questions. What the hells really the big difference between a crank bait and a minnow lure like this. Now i can see an obvious difference in the shape and maybe some of them float and others dive, but what do you use what for what?
