The chubs with the two spots on the back are zanema.  I think 30 is a colored up zanema as well.  35-36 may well be hypsinotus.

odd one might be rosyside dace. the one after it is greenfin shiner Cyprinella chloristia.  I agree with Dustin's and Geralds IDs

Ok so what I think I am gathering here is Greenhead Shiners, Satinfins, Creek Chubs and Highback Chubs?

 

No Thicklip or Santee Chub?

[Dustin]

I think you got greenfin instead of satinfin.  They look very similar but you are in greenfin territory.  Also, most of the second batch of fish were santee chubs (zanema).  Otherwise, you are correct.

Ok cool, glad those are Santee Chubs since I haven't caught one before. Trying to keep up with the latin names here that you guys use so got a little confused. What about Highback Chubs? Those two pics I think are 25 and 26. Thanks for the id's guys, Fritz, Gerald, Dustin, appreciate it.

# 35 and 36 could be Highback chubs.  I botched #30: Dustin is correct that one is Santee chub.  With these small eastern US "chubs" (other than Nocomis or Semotilus) common names may be more useful than scientific names for now, since the genus names are uncertain (Hybopsis, Cyprinella, Notropis, Erimonax ...)
