Blue-winged Olives
Baetis

Tiny Baetis mayflies are perhaps the most commonly encountered and imitated by anglers on all American trout streams due to their great abundance, widespread distribution, and trout-friendly emergence habits.

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.

Biography & Thoughts
The finest gift you can give to any fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn’t someone else’s gift to you. - Lee Wulff

Fly images are very high resolution, printed on acid-free paper and come matted to fit an 11" x 14" frame.

My father was a fly fisherman for most of his life. As a tribute, I am photographing the best of his flies - most tied by him. Unfortunately, he can't remember most of their names. If you know the name of a fly, please forward it to me :-)
