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 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.

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.

Very nice video! I especially liked the scene where the fellow stood in the same spot and landed four nice grayling. It looks like a very nice small river.

I'll second that. Thanks for taking us to Siberia for a visit.

Thank you friends! I in reserve there are videos from Comrade Alexander. He catches trout on fly rod, and tells of wild medicinal sources ... I will not get ahead of ourselves ... I'll write music and do video editing, then you will see for yourself.

Hey Matt,

Doesn't that little Grayling stream look like it could be in MT? Especially the scenes of flyfishing with that hillside covered in changing quakies as a backdrop.

Very nice, Vladimir. BTW - What species were the mouse eaters?
