Those are Yellow Bullheads. You can tell by the white whiskers below their mouth, and the long anal fin. Black Bullheads have black, brown, or grey whiskers below their mouth, and are much broader in the shoulders, with a smaller anal fin. I don't think Florida has many Black Bullheads? Mainly the Yellow, Brown, and the smaller Snail, Flat, & Lil Suwanee Spotted Bullhead.  Those are beaut's. I bet that was a lot of fun! I'm a little jealous. Good eating too!

WHOOHOO! The big one on the end is the new Florida record for black bullhead! 2 lb 6.1 oz! The record is vacant, and the qualifying weight is 2 lbs... I'm 99% sure I have them identified correctly... smooth, unbarbed dorsal spine, grey base on anal fin, lighter band at tail base in some individuals... SWEET! And THAT fish was the first catfish I've EVER caught in this lake!
