Please let me know if you are interested in joining us. Carpooling will be available I will be going from Richmond to Louisville, and from Greensburg back to Richmond, not through Louisville. There will be a caravan from Louisville to the collecting location. I will follow up with more as the details are finalized.
Here's the Facebook page if you want to check it out.

Think you got them all, did see a better picture on facebook of the Lamprey. Pretty confident that it was a Chestnut.
I'm still fairly confident that we caught a Steelcolor shiner, even more so now that I read over the field guide. There was one we caught when you were snorkeling, I put it in somebody's bucket, but it was accidentally released. Also, the Freckled Madtom is a Mountain Madtom. Didn't look like any Mountain Madtom I'd seen before..

I'm sure we did catch a Steelcolor, its hard to imagine not with all of the ones we caught. That Mountain Madtom was pretty crazy did we ever ID the small individual we caught?
I'm thinking about hitting the Rockcastle this Saturday, mainly for photos if the levels allow it.

I was considering Fishing Creek and Buck next weekend, if it's nice and if the wife allows.

Sounds good, unfortunately I did not manage to find any Ashy Darters and was able to drop my camera in a cup of water with it on frying it. Had set up my photo tank away from the river to avoid that scenario yet still managed to drop it into a cup of 500mL of water. Did some snorkeling and my girlfriend found a Lampsilis fasciola displaying so that was nice.
