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.

This specimen keys to the Epeorus albertae group of species. Of the five species in that group, the two known in Washington state are Epeorus albertae and Epeorus dulciana. Of the two, albertae has been collected in vastly more locations in Washington than dulciana, suggesting it is far more common. On that basis alone I'm tentatively putting this nymph in albertae, with the large caveat that there's no real information to rule out dulciana.
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.

I have not yet tried to catch fish on a kayak, but I would like to do it. I think this will be more extremely. For my boat and travel I often buy equipment here https://marinewaze.com/camping/lanterns/ . I can find a lot things. Advise where to start fishing in kayaks?

PeterCO,

Hudson River, Bronx River, any place there is water. What was your point in providing a link to stuff entirely unrelated to fly fishing or aquatic insects?
