They both look like bluegills to me, the shape is right, but the colors are wrong. Are they bream? Warmouth? I'm pretty sure they're not crappie, neither one of em.
They are bluegill. A lot of fish in that area are very dark due to the decaying plant matter in the lakes. Used to live there. learned to call any sunfish brim, crappie was specs, and a 5 lb catfish was big, but a 6 lb bass was "OK".
