Looks like a horney head chub to me.

Great link x2

It's a creek chub.

Specialist told us that horney head chubs have less and bigger scales.

I guess it's just a horney "creek chub"....it's that time of year for them you know

Bottom fish looks like a coloured up common shiner (however I can't see a certain spot too well to see if the scales are that of a common, or if it's a Striped Shiner), top fish isnt at a good angle to accurately ID (straight on view of the side is almost always the best for ID help) , however with the reddish head I would lean more towards a Creek Chub, Hornyheads and Rivers tend to get some to a lot of blue on their head (males) when they are in the mood.
