For me it's: Silver net, Golden watering can, Golden axe, and Golden shovel. And sometime I carry a random piece of furniture in case a villager wants to pay or trade
golden shovel, golden fishing rod, silver net, golden slingshot (tryin' to get that balloon badge, man).
but i also keep a wet suit, the timer, the gold watering can, and an umbrella in my letters so i have them handy if i need them. i should probably start taking the megaphone with me, too.
I always carry my golden watering can and a silver watering can for those times when I find a black rose has withered and I don't want to have a gold rose as I'm trying to breed a blue rose.
In my letters that I carry with me, I always have: a wetsuit, silver fishing rod, golden axe, silver shovel, golden sling shot, silver bug net & silver watering can. I sometimes have the megaphone there also. I can then get the tool I want out of my letters, but they don't take up any of the 16 spaces in my pocket and I don't have to run to a storage locker to get a tool out. I learned to do this back in WW, so very helpful.

Oh, I do have an umbrella in my letters also since it has started raining again.
Silver shovel, silver bug net, and silver fishing rod. Silver watering can for now because I've switched to Night Owl ordinance until Weeding Day. (Not using letters for tools because I'm lazy.)
Golden watering can, golden shovel, silver fishing rod, silver net. I have my golden slingshot, megaphone, wet suit, and gold and silver axes in my mail slots.
Golden shovel, golden axe, silver fishing rod, silver bug net, golden slingshot, golden watering can, red wet suit, and my megaphone. At all times. Always.
