Here is Beckys smaller Yellow

Here is Beckys smaller Yellow Jack from our trip. It matches yours nearly spot on.
TASTY FISH TOO!! Great in fish head soup or Glaxed.

Mud Sunfish
Both of the "Yellow Jacks"

Both of the "Yellow Jacks" look like Blue Runners to me.  Neither have yellow fins, they both have a small black spot on the opercular margin, and it looks like the staight part of the lateral line begins anterior to the anal-fin origin.
