I'm glad you had a good time. It was a rather short trip with a limited number of species. Here is what we got:
Greenfin shiner, Cyprinella chloristia
Whitefin shiner, C. nivea
Sandbar shiner, Notropis scepticus
Swallowtail shiner, N. procne
Spottail shiner, N. hudsonius
Creek chub, Semotilus atromaculatus
Bluehead chub, Nocomis leptacephalus
White sucker, Catostomus commersoni
Notchlip redhorse, Moxostoma collapsum
Flat bullhead, Ameiurus platycephalus
Redbreast, Lepomis auritus
Bluegill, L. macrochirus
Pirate perch, Apredoderus sayanus
Tesselated darter, Etheostoma olmstedi
Carolina darter, Etheostoma collis
Piedmont darter, Percina crassa
I may have missed a few in the writhing masses of silvery fish.
Interestingly, we went to 6 spots and all but two of these streams were completely dried up. The streams that did have water were very low.
