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 am in need of some help. I have went fishing on the North Fork of the South Branch in the Petersburg, Smokehole and Jordon Run Rd. areas and I need some advice. I have fished the area about 10 times in the past two months and have yet to land a fish. I know they are out there but they don't go for anything I through out to them. I was wondering if there was anyone out there that has fished the area and could give me advise on anything in the in the area. Also last time I went out I noticed a USGS depth gauge on the Smokehole Bridge and was wondering if someone had a link to get the info on the day to day level in this area. Any ideas and suggestions are welcome.
