Blue-winged Olives
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.

Ventral view of a Hydropsyche (Hydropsychidae) (Spotted Sedge) Caddisfly Larva from the Yakima River in Washington

With a bit of help from the microscope, this specimen keys clearly and unsurprisingly to Hydropsyche.

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.

Am I missing something here? I bought a new copy of Caucci and Nastasi's Hatches II and it's missing pages 189 to 220. These pages weren't torn out, they simply aren't there. Can't find anything online that suggests a printing error.

Has anyone else noticed this problem?

No clue about that book but I do know some of the flies in Selective Trout's first edition,1987,no longer exist so they are not in the updated version, 2001. Maybe this also happened to Hatches II. I have read here a lot of the older names for mayflys are no longer used. Just a guess.---HTH---John
