Dam dude, those are some slabs! Nice job.
I like your chunk'o'plastic. I fish a similar 'grub' on a ball head for smallies. It's called a Jacks Worm and is about 4.5" long. The color combo you have in the pix Case calls "Flint Special" and is very productive in mid Atlantic rivers. I've also done well in KY & TN rivers with that color. That tail has a very attractive 'shimmer' to the fish I hunt.
