This one pretty clearly keys to Kogotus, but it also looks fairly different from specimens I caught in the same creek about a month later in the year. With only one species of the genus known in Washington, I'm not sure about the answer to this ID.

Anybody here have any good podcast recommendations? I listen to the Orvis podcast by Tom Rosenbauer often. Just wondering if there are any other good ones out there.
