Hi Dan,

I'm no expert on midwestern fishes... But...

0012.jpg appears to be Notropis. It seems to have the right dimensions for
texanus (weed shiner), but I would need to have a guide handy to confirm that,
and I also would like to see what sympatrics are in your area.

0026.jpg and 0047.jpg have that Rhinichthys thing going on. They also kinda
have a Campostoma thing going on. I'm not sure. Again, it'd be nice to have
my NA atlas here and whittle down the candidates.

Bullhead.jpg is definately a bullhead. Way to capture the dorsal and caudal
peduncle spots. I've always missed the dorsal spot in my shots for whatever
reason. I just brought some back from my recent trip in hopes to finally
remedy that problem of mine :)

I've uploaded some better quality photos of a couple of the fish.
