Aka Green Caddis, Green Sedges or Rhyacophilidae. A common, easily identified caddis - at least in it's larval stage, that has wonderful behavior that makes it fun and effective to fish. We'll talk about the critter - but also a lot about the flies and the history of the flies that imitate them.
Episode 37: Teeny Tiny Things
Welcome to Episode 37 - where we'll be talking about those things that are large enough to see, but to small to really see what they are. things like water mites, daphnia, copepods and ostracods. They may not be too important for actual fly fishing, but they are super important in terms of the food chain. So - sit back, enjoy, and I hope you learn something new!
Episode 36: True Bugs
True bugs? What is a false bug? Well, true bugs is the term used by entomologists to refer to the guys that are in suborder Heteroptera.
