Sorry I couldn't get better pictures of "2", but I am pretty sure that is a bluegill anyway, more interested about 3, green maybe?
 
They all look like bluegills to me. Greens usually have a bigger mouth and the body shape is different
 
Bluegills
 
that one on the hook is beautiful.
if you want practice identifying go through this forum looking at the ID please threads. it helped me quite a bit.
 
All bluegills...

Bluegill juveniles are actually not too difficult to separate at young ages. They tend to have those vertical bars on their body, and that dark spot on the soft portion of their dorsal fins.
