Nice goin on the Seabass. I had to learn the hard way to stay away from those "two-speed" captains. A badly bruised tailbone and no dookie for 10 days will teach you well!!!!!
I was gonna say your silver snapper is actually a Pink Porgy but I see now where they are one in the same. Guess it depends on geo. location as to what you call it though it is a porgy and not a snapper.....Very good eatin none the less!!!!!

Right on about the Red/Pink Porgy vs. Silver Snapper. I'm just getting into this bottom fishing thing so I've been trying to do my homework on species id and bag limits. Last thing you want to do is keep something illegal, one too many or one too small! The Red Porgy looks a lot like a sheepshead to me, which is also a porgy.
Seabass were all 14" + up to 17" or 18" I'm guessing. Did not measure the big ones. Smallest beeliners were 13.5". We were trying to keep 14" and up on both. Wish we could've caught some triggers. Never had any.

We get triggers on natural bottom, not usually on wrecks, between 80 and 110 feet deep. Very easy to catch once you get on them. They'll bite anything.
