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.
This one was surprisingly straightforward to identify. The lack of a sclerite at the base of the lateral hump narrows the field quite a bit, and the other options followed fairly obvious characteristics to Clostoeca, which only has one species, Clostoeca disjuncta.
For those of you who use Instagram, I've started sharing some of my photos there. Eventually it'll just be a way to share news of new Troutnut.com updates and pictures, but in order to build up a bit of a portfolio I'll be highlighting older images for a while as well.
Both "Troutnut" and "TheTroutnut" were unavailable, so my account name is "DrTroutnut" as the next-easiest thing to remember.
