I didn't know we had pompanos on the west coast, what is the little striped fish?

I did a google search on the picture of the last fish, google says it is a marlin

We do. They're also called butterfish. Used to be a pretty common bait fish just like tomcod. The striped one is called Salema, one of the more tropical looking native fish along our coast.
