The famous nocturnal Hex hatch of the Midwest (and a few other lucky locations) stirs to the surface mythically large brown trout that only touch streamers for the rest of the year.
This recently deceased Trico was smaller and darker than the others I photographed from the same morning.
This mayfly was collected from the Neversink River in New York on September 8th, 2006 and added to Troutnut.com by Troutnut on October 4th, 2006.
