The Louisiana fish are in a post of their own.

Since returning.... I've made a couple "micro" trips... because @Ham said "I've got a Darter spot you should try.  Close to you."  

First trip resulted in catching 9 species.  Two most interesting were a very small Walleye, and Flyfer Ozark Logperch!

Next trip to that spot, I went upstream instead of downstream.  10 Species this trip.  3 Flyfers... Bigeye Shiner, Ozark Minnow, and finally an adult darter landed (not counting the logperch, which is a darter)... an Orangethroat Darter:

I've put in some effort, for sure.  I'd like to say I saw this fish and presented the fly to him.... but it was pure luck.  I did not see it at all.  I lifted the fly from the water and the fish was already on it.  I saw and presented to many smaller darters...a few were even hooked briefly.  I'd like to know where these bigger ones hide.  It's still a mystery to me.
