Hex Mayflies
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.

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.

This section lists all the trout streams (and some other locations) with photos on Troutnut.com from each state. It is not a complete listing of each state's rivers, or of its best trout streams. It's just a list of what's on this website, so it mostly corresponds to rivers near where Troutnut has lived.
