Iam going to say these look like spotted bass theres only 1 dark line by the eye on all of them, where largies tend to have 3.

They could be just really color full largies as well.
 
spotted bass too many spots for a large mouth but could also be a hybrid.
where were they caught?
 
If caught in FL thans it's a florida largemouth.
My juvie looks exactlly like those and noto ID it as a florida largy.
Fl Lmb have lots of coloration when young.
 
Do their tails have a white edge? In the first pic, it looks like they might, but I can't tell in the second pic with the white wall behind them. If it's edged in white, they're likely spotted. LMB have a clear/yellowish tail fading to black, so bicolored. In spotted bass (as well as SMB-which these definitely aren't, and maybe some others) it goes from the clear/yellowish to black then to white at the edge-so tricolored. It's usually more apparent when they are young, and one of the easiest ways to tell small spotted or LMB apart
