Salmonflies

The giant Salmonflies of the Western mountains are legendary for their proclivity to elicit consistent dry-fly action and ferocious strikes.

This specimen resembled several others of around the same size and perhaps the same species, which were pretty common in my February sample from the upper Yakima. Unfortunately, I misplaced the specimen before I could get it under a microscope for a definitive ID.

Hey guys!
Great site. I've really enjoyed checking it out this morning.
I'm excited because this Saturday is my first real fishing trip of this year. I also just purchased a new digital camera so I'm excited about getting some good shots.
I'll let you guys know how it went.
