The giant Salmonflies of the Western mountains are legendary for their proclivity to elicit consistent dry-fly action and ferocious strikes.
For years after I started this website, I was eagerly hoping to find a green drake to add to the collection, but I was never in the right part of the world at the right time. It finally happened on June 1st, 2007.
This mayfly was collected from the West Branch of the Delaware River in New York on June 1st, 2007 and added to Troutnut.com by Troutnut on June 4th, 2007.
