you caught a small amberjack (cervjola) and a red sea barracuda (litz tal lvant)
if you have any further queries just ask

Amazing that you caught the amberjack now, usually you don't see them before August.

amberjack start in about mid may till the end of september but the big ones only appear in june to breed
amazingly this year i saw a shoal of a couple of hundred on the 4th may
