Probably Guads. Wouldn't think they would introduce a competitive cousin in an endemic area... But here is what wiki says about it: "(Guadalupe Bass') physical traits are very similar to the spotted bass (i.e. small mouth that does not extend past the eye, sleek figure, etc.) with one exception; the green coloring tends to extend lower on the body past the lateral line than their relatives."
"The fish is only found in Edward's Plateau in central Texas. Its main habitats are the San Marcos, Colorado, Llano, and Guadalupe Rivers.[5] They can also be found in run-off creeks such as Barton Creek, Onion Creek, San Gabriel River, and the Comal River. The species has also been farm-raised and stocked in the Llano River."

Guad caught a million of them at LBJ up the Colo...the yellow color gives them away toothy too.

The 1st pic looks like a Spotted Bass and the 2nd pic looks like a Guadalupe Bass to me. Not a marine biologist but that’s what I’m seeing. Caught countless that looks like both from the Llano River(Colorado tributary).
