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.

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.

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.

Please subscribe here if you'd like to see my photos on your feed occasionally.
