Hex Mayflies
Hexagenia limbata

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 wild-looking little thing completely puzzled me. At first I was thinking beetle or month larva, until I got a look at the pictures on the computer screen. I made a couple of incorrect guesses before entomologist Greg Courtney pointed me in the right direction with Psychodidae. He suggested a possible genus of Thornburghiella, but could not rule out some other members of the tribe Pericomini.
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.
Troutnut is a project started in 2003 by salmonid ecologist Jason "Troutnut" Neuswanger to help anglers and fly tyers unabashedly embrace the entomological side of the sport. Learn more about Troutnut or support the project for an enhanced experience here.

There are a couple ways. First plug your Iphone into your computer and instead of going through iTunes just import the photos like you would from any didgital camera, then upload to troutnut.com. The other way and this is how I usually do it, is to get a photobucket account and then get the photobucket app. you can then upload from yur phone to photobucket and then in a post you can copy the img tag from the photo you would like to use in photobucket and paste it into your thread post. I just did this yesterday in a thread about Anthopotamus. It is in the post about Anthopotamus verticis.
