Nice catch. Swim baits must be kick ass there if they come in a molded case.

Ah, those were different, smaller lures. Those are something they call a BuzzShad or something like that. Like a cross between swimbait and a frog, fished on top of the weeds. They are pretty popular.

The swimbait was a SR7.

Here's those Buzzin shads: http://www.basstackledepot.com/damiki-buzzing-shad.aspx

Seem to work pretty well anywhere there is a lot of vegetation but you want a slightly bigger bait.
