Looks like a lingcod (not a "true" cod... much better!) and a vermillion rockfish. Nice work Vash!

My additional 3 cents:
-You should get yourself a proper kill bag so you can fit your entire fish inside now that you are pulling in the bigguns
-try either using cold packs or packaging the fish in plastic (I use bread proofing bags) before putting on ice, saltwater species with their skin exposed to freshwater ice will absorb moisture into their flesh and end up a little soggy. If that happens you can draw water back out using kosher salt FWIW.
-both of those species make great fish tacos, yum!
