Looking at the fish list supplied by KDFWR I'm leaning towards Notropis volucellus or Notropis stramineus. Me and Joshua are just not 100% sure on this guy. Can anybody confirm or have better idea? Thanks in advance.

It looks very much like young-of-year Lux. albeolus or chrysocephalus I've seen in NC and VA

Did you guys find any of those funky Red River Clinostomus hybrids?
We caught just a few C. elongatus but I didn't see anything that made me think hybrid

Josh has seen them I think. In some of the creeks there, they are a pretty darn common hybrid. I took some to Marc Kibbey at Ohio State. The meristics were almost dead on in between Clinosomus and Chrosomus.

Yea I want to say Josh has mentioned it to me before or I've heard it somewhere else. Pretty interesting definitely more Chrosomus than Clinostomus

That's probably why it is so common. When the flows are low, and the streams are mostly pools, the isolated clinostomus get lonely.

Looking at the photos now, it does look like a Striped Shiner. It looked my Notropisy in the field.

I'm going to take the blame here. I did say, "Hey, is this a Notropis?" So I probably put it in our minds and we didn't consider anything else. If that's not what happened, then I blame David
It did kinda bias my opinion a bit If only we had turned it to look from top down lol.

Well at least I don't go 100m upstream flail my arms and come sprinting towards the seine.

I guess I could give it a go next time. I mean there are some people around these parts that swear by it.

You must be talking about the Blaylock shuffle. I have seen it. I think it has been personally handed down from generation to generation. Started out as a Bluegrass stomp/shuffle, and the family found that while listening to Ralph Stanley and doing the Blaylock shuffle, that Harlan county fish just gravitated towards a net. Much like a backpack shocker. The said bait, mostly blackside dace were then used to procure channel catfish for a nights supper. I think you can Google this.
Haha haha, that's the best thing ever
