Two colors that will work just about anywhere for largemouth and smallmouth.

Yes, it is Gregs version. Trust me it works better than the original.

Come on Don don't you remember when we catalogued the WWWdot Assasin Pro Series in Novi?  "Winning with Wattsdot Pro Series" is no surprise now for anyone at this point!  Why don't you just go down to Table Rock now before you go wrecking more stuff - you deserve to be punished for this and what could be worse than having to spend an extra 3-4 days down at that stupid sick world-class fishery.  You'll be pretty sorry when your running around on Table Rock catching 5-8lbers all day while we're sitting here enjoying the beautiful snow/melt/snow/melt cycle - serves you right!

Your bluegill is nice but I would use a little more orange on the belly instead of red.  A bluegills belly is a little more yellow/orange.  The shad minnows body should have more white and less red.  They look like some nice baits though.  Just my 2 cents.
