I am positive they are not bass (LMB or SMB). Theo is correct they are some sort of Lepomis and maybe but not likely hybrids. Body height is too high for a bass and bass that size will have dark tail bands esp SMB. Since they are from a stream, larger mouth indicates high chance green sunfish as Bruce suggested. Fish or trap the stream and it is likely one will catch some of the adults.
