Default florida vacation fish I found swimming under the bridge

Just go back from Florida went to Fort Walton beach & to a smaller beach farther up at the bridge across the bay it's a great little spot 3 years ago when we went it had NO people at it this year it was so crowded. It's partially shaded by the bridge & the bridge attracts fish. The water was rather cloudy this year but I managed to get some pictures & video that I will post below. If any one can Id some of he fish for us all it would be cool because I only remember the names of a few. would also like to add that my camera is a rather cheep digital & takes better video than pics & I want to apologize for the creepy Darth Vader snorkel breathing & the image quality.

Great pictures looks like a lot of fun. I wish I could live out there I'd have a awesome salt water tank! My buddie moved out to Florida because he's in the air force and has a lot of wild saltwater fish out from the ocean.

Thought the yellow silver side was a horse mackrel or an aji. loved the crab he was totally mellow when I picked him up & I put him right back where I got him too & he went right back to eating lol. The silver side was cool it kept coming up behind me ^_^ & the big grunt kept running into me....O.o
will post video when I can...stupid internet.

The first pic looks like one of my sunfish to me. Some sunfish can be in fresh or salt water, so it is possible...
