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 one was surprisingly straightforward to identify. The lack of a sclerite at the base of the lateral hump narrows the field quite a bit, and the other options followed fairly obvious characteristics to Clostoeca, which only has one species, Clostoeca disjuncta.

I've been taking a lot of pictures around Alaska that don't quite fit the streams & fishing theme of this site, but are worth showing around. So I've created a separate site as a photojournal for my Alaska travels.
Once I get a lot more pictures up (and I have a LOT from the summer and fall that aren't on there yet) I'll be linking this into the main blue menu on this site, along with a new fly tying contest site. But the look & feel of the Alaska one is pretty much done so I'm announcing it here on the forum.
The new site won't take away from this one at all. Instead it's a place for stuff that doesn't quite make sense on this one. In fact, some of the pictures will overlap.
