Hexagenia limbata

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.

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.

Parks Highway in Alaska
I took this picture on my way home from Homer, from one of the Denali overlooks on the Parks Highway a ways north of Talkeetna. That is an amazing drive at all times of year, and spring is no exception. The highest, most distant mountain visible is Denali / Mount McKinley, while the rest of the Alaska Range rises over the Chulitna River in the foreground. From Parks Highway in Alaska
