    Judging from all that vegetation/structure in the first two pics, the size of the perch, the shape/structure of the lips, i would say its a black seaperch

    The markings and coloration can throw you off because from past experiences, i've notice that they can slightly change pigmentation--especially when under stress. The light verticle bars and the enlarged scales between the pectoral and pelvic fins are giveaways. And because of their diet, they have a slightly fishier smell than the common Barred Surfperch. You can also find these in the bays also, but the coastal ones living by rock and vegetation structures typically grow to be bigger than their bay cousins!
