The middle one is interesting because you can identify the species from the details. It’s a Northern Hog Sucker (Hypentelium nigricans) that is native to the rivers around Chillicothe.
They’re not considered game fish, but all the yellow suckers take well to smoking or pickling. A fish you can eat later would be a pretty big deal.
