This specimen keys to the Epeorus albertae group of species. Of the five species in that group, the two known in Washington state are Epeorus albertae and Epeorus dulciana. Of the two, albertae has been collected in vastly more locations in Washington than dulciana, suggesting it is far more common. On that basis alone I'm tentatively putting this nymph in albertae, with the large caveat that there's no real information to rule out dulciana.

I'm planning to wrap a Lamiglas FG blank over the winter, just wondering if anybody out there has used Lamiglas blanks and can share an opinion on quality, action, and so on. I"m looking at a small-stream rod, 2 or 3 wt at most and 6'6" or 7' 0" long.
other than that, I in serious fishing withdrawal- lately either I'm working my day off or it's rained heavily the day before and the rivers are unwadeable. going on 3 weeks, not fun at all...
