The bluegill looks nice, but the longears especially the first one are the best looking!
Are those Texas Cichlids?

Yes they are. We also caught a few hybrids(sunfish) also but unfortunately the pics were no good.

I think you maybe confusing Texas Cichlids(Herichthys cyanoguttatus) for Green Texas(H. Carpintis). These fish are pretty drab in color. I wonder if anyone on MFK would be interested in W/c cyanos lol

Unfortunately I haven't had much luck catching some. I will however, give it another shot soon.
