Caught these guys earlier today in Colonial Heights, VA using a seine net. The darter looks like a johnny and the sunfish look like either bluespots or banded sunfish. Can anyone confirm? Thanks.

Handsome looking Johnnellated Darter you have there (According to Freshwater Fishes of Virginia, the Appomattox and surrounding fall-line areas have populations of intergrade or hybrid Johnny/Tessellated darters). Also those look like juvenile Bluespotted Sunfish.
