Tarpon?

My son and I were fishing for schoolies with cocahoes at the West Wall today. I didn't get any stripers but I did land two fish that I need some help identifying. Both were between 15-17 inches, were silvery white and darker along the back with large scales. They had a forked tail and large upturned mouth, no teeth. Both fish actively jumped out of the water when hooked.

Looking on-line they look like a tarpon, but I would be surprised to see them in the cold water. Could it be? Any other thoughts?
