Pteronarcys californica

The giant Salmonflies of the Western mountains are legendary for their proclivity to elicit consistent dry-fly action and ferocious strikes.

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.
Troutnut is a project started in 2003 by salmonid ecologist Jason "Troutnut" Neuswanger to help anglers and fly tyers unabashedly embrace the entomological side of the sport. Learn more about Troutnut or support the project for an enhanced experience here.

Flyfishing pristine mountain streams for wild browns among Roman ruins... sounds too good to be true!

There was a enthusiastic Greek guy on one of the old threads looking for help getting started in flyfishing. I can't remember his name or the thread, but maybe someone should PM him this article.

P.S. And it does sound like a great place.
