This species was fairly abundant in a February sample of the upper Yakima.
27" brown trout, my largest ever. It was the sub-dominant fish in its pool. After this, I hooked the bigger one, but I couldn't land it.
Troutnut is a project started in 2003 by salmonid ecologist Jason "Troutnut" Neuswanger to help anglers and fly tyers unabashedly embrace the entomological side of the sport. Learn more about Troutnut or support the project for an enhanced experience here.

Definition of 'radial sector' in Caddisflies

Radial sector: The radial sector (denoted Rs) is group of longitudinal wing vein branches that arise posteriorly from the radius. In caddisflies, vein Rs divides into two branches (R2+3 and R4+5), which both split again, forming four total branches R2 through R5.

These other words reference the same concept: vein Rs, Rs vein, Rs, R2, vein R2, R2 vein, R3, vein R3, R3 vein, R4, vein R4, R4 vein, R5, vein R5, R5 vein, R2+3, vein R2+3, R2+3 vein, R4+5, vein R4+5, R4+5 vein.
