Sunfish ID?
 
Last weekend I was fishing in a local creek and caught these two sunfish. Anyone know what type they are?

Both were caught on a trout magnet.

In the first picture, the orange fringes on the anal fin and tail along with the blue streaks on the face identify it as Green Sunfish.
The second picture appears to be a smaller specimen of the same species of fish.

Thanks for the ID. I always catch redbreast sunfish and bluegill in this creek, so I'm not use to seeing anything different.
