I'm not sure about this guy, any ideas. He was about 2-2.5" and there is a slight red band in his dorsal fin.

Thanks guys. I was also considering E. vulneratum the wounded darter, but I think camurum is a better fit. There's a lot to be said for identification by consensus.
I thought the nose wasn't pointed enough for E. valneratum.

Looking at it again, I think we all are right with camurum

I love Bluebreasts too. Although coincidentally, I'm sure you've seen some fired up Redline males that have equally rivaling, blue-breasts.

My choices are vulneratum, camurum and a female of something just as you stated. The rust colored spots and general lack of color raised the question of vulneratum, which is in the area/river.
Isaac, littlen, thanks for the compliments it was a tough day, the water was worse than in NC. The first image shows how yellow everything was, the second image was much shallower.

I believe it's a bluebreast, it was quite sedentary. Summer temps probably top out in the high 60s-low 70s.
