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.

This specimen keys pretty easily to Onocosmoecus, and it closely resembles a specimen from Alaska which caddis expert Dave Ruiter recognized as this genus. As with that specimen, the only species in the genus documented in this area is Onocosmoecus unicolor, but Dave suggested for that specimen that there might be multiple not-yet-distinguished species under the unicolor umbrella and it would be best to stick with the genus-level ID. I'm doing the same for this one.
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.

The zebra trout: Trout that resisted the last glaciation.
FEATURES OF OUR NATIVE TROUT, ZEBRA TROUT:

It has many small black and red circles surrounded by a white halo and also has four dark stripes crossing his Body.

Great adaptation to our climate: large avenues, water stress and high water temperatures.

In result of the adaptation she is suspicious to predators.

The wide avenues of water and the rivers rocky mountain background seems they cause the morphology of trout oversizing their pectoral fins.

The other main feature of this type of brown trout is its speed when attacking flies.

Great power.

More than 10 spots on the Operculum.
