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 seems to lead to Couplet 35 of the Key to Genera of Perlodidae Nymphs and the genus Isoperla, but I'm skeptical that's correct based on the general look. I need to get it under the microscope to review several choices in the key, and it'll probably end up a different Perlodidae.
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.

To all,

I wouldn't open a blind link from someone with one post so I went to the web site and it doesn't appear to have anything to do with fly fishing. At least there is nothing on the Home page that talks about fly fishing.

When I Googled the web site address here is the header I saw;

"Indiegogo: An International Crowdfunding Platform to Raise Money"

nuff said!
Catskill fly fisher for fifty-five years.
