Brook silverside and golden shiner (last 4 pics) are easy enough, and you're probably right on the stoneroller.
Other than those, I don't know the TN shiners and darters well enough. But maybe those first two are striped shiner ?
edit: and #9-10 maybe telescope shiner ?

I showed Casper these and he agrees with Striped Shiner just like you did. The Telescope or Bigeye, I'd really like to figure that one out.

About the Silverside, the beak wasn't present like Brook's I've seen. It was caught in a lake and they were the main forage fish I believe. I was leaning towards Miss. Silverside myself.
