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.

With a bit of help from the microscope, this specimen keys clearly and unsurprisingly to Hydropsyche.
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.

Simm G3 is my favorite. It has worked better at doing what it is supposed to do than the others I've tried. Actually worth the price to stay dry in my opinion.
Fishing with bait is like swearing in church.

I'm assuming that you are referring to the Beans Emerger jacket. It's a very good, very durable Jacket for the money. I know that cabela's has one of there mid level jackets on sale for around $60 on line right now
