"The Fishes of Tennessee" by David Etnier and Wayne Starnes (University of Tennessee Press) is by far the best reference book availible for those with a keen interest in our extremely diverse fish fauna.
Wisconsin's Fish Identification Database is a good online source to help with the ID of many East Tennessee fishes.
