Clubshell are doing quite well in locally abundant and reproducing populations in Frech Creek (PA), along with the Northern Riffleshell, and I believe also in the Upper Allegheny. Just over the last week or two students here (Tennessee Tech) have found live Clubshell in the Green River as well as agency workers. I just collected host fish last week to begin propagation of them for the Green River.

Todd, if you are interested, I have been making a killing on shells from the Duck River the past week and should be from the Green shortly too, and I am taking pictures to put online. I am hardly webpage savy though so I have just been putting them in my yahoo briefcase. I have to get moving on cleaning them first but once that is done I should have them all online in a day. I also will be doing the same for shells from French Creek (PA), Wabash River (IN), Tippecanoe River (IN), and East Fork White River (IN).

Definately understand the drought aspect and smell that ensues, here in central TN some smaller rivers are spotty pools right now. The Northern Studfish and Rosyface Shiners I collected last week in the Roaring River were all stressed before I even brought them back.
