I'm almost certain top two are BRES...the photos may make them appear different, but they were nearly identical with exception of margin on opercular tab.

I have never seen an RES with blue mottling on it's cheeks, nor have I seen one with such a large gape especially on a 6" fish, but I've caught probably fewer than 200 RES in my life, so I'm no expert. Remember, the theory is 75% RES, 25% GSF.
