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.

This species was fairly abundant in a February sample of the upper Yakima.
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.

Well Just got a new set up a couple weeks ago. It is a 9ft. 8wt. Redington Cross water. I just got the rod, and bought a different reel of it and together it was just over $300. It is by far, out of my 2 other fly rod set ups the best one I have! Especually for the price!! If you are looking to get set up for the right price I highly recommend it!
