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.
Looking at other ID's these seem like Hexagenia limbata but just wanted to confirm. This specimen measured 24.5mm and was a subimago. It was just hanging out near a light fixture with a lot of smaller mayflies

I'd call that H. limbata. And I have collected them together with H. bilineata from the Susquehanna River.
