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.

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.

Floated thru my home town with my little girl. Very cool day! It started out pretty cold, so we ate donuts, looked at birds and water type critters, stripped a few streamers, and drank hot chocolate. Once it warmed up some bugs started to do their thing and we could nymph the shelves and side channels. Fishing was good. A lot of small fish but we managed to find a few larger 'bows. My kiddo was, as always, a trooper and managed to catch a few all by herself.

Daniel, great photo's, could just feel myself there. Looks like you have some great floating there & some pretty great fishing as well. But floating down river & eating the doughnuts with your little trooper -Priceless. Well welcome, look forward ta seeing other trips. I fish streams in N.Y. Nothing like you have, looks great...

What a cute kid. The photo of her in the front of the boat is one to frame. You two are very lucky. Reminds me of fishing with my girls when they were little. Now I have a three-year-old granddaughter. I'll be getting her out in a bit.

No matter how big the one you just caught is, there's always a bigger one out there somewhere...
