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.

What's up with the Forum today? On one of Kurt's comments the word "nice" was in blue letters and underlined, then on my comment when I wrote the word "job" it too was in blue letters, underlined, and clickable. When I clicked on it a little window opens with an ad for a young woman finding a job or something.

Or is it a feature of my computer to pick out key words? I went to another Forum and saw certain other words highlited.
