Pretty sure they're coastrange sculpins, but difficult to be 100% sure without checking chin pores (should be one at tip) and absence of palatine teeth. Might want to see what they look like in a year or so, after they've grown a bit.

I'm not trying to be a jerk here (but that's never stopped me in the past :unsure:) buuut...I don't think Washington state allows you to transport wild fish to then keep at home in an aquarium.
While I'd guess many who police this sort of activity for the state don't think you're doing anything terribly wrong, but you are posting this on a public forum.
Please remember that we ask forum participants to carefully read the law and abide by it. We hope this both enlightens participants as well as protects them.
