ID Please

[Druu]

Two shots in this first post as a teaser. I'd be really impressed if anyone got them. Only hint is that they are saltwater fish caught off Florida. I know the ID of the first one, but not the second. I'll post full body shots of the second and another unknown (to me) fish for IDs in a bit.

iam going to take a wild guess and say that it is a fish

I was waiting on a response before posting more pics, so thanks guys. First one is a black sea bass. It missed the 12" limit so I threw him back. Took a shot of that one b/c it had the blue and gold around its eyes- Notre Dame's colors. I'll post a pic of the second fish and a pic of a fish that I did not take a close up of. I don't know what these two are as I am unfamiliar with Floridian fish. Thanks in advance for the help. (And the third pic is me with a remora attached to my forearm.)
