Photos by Troutnut from the Delaware River, the West Branch of the Delaware River, and the Beaverkill River in New York

On-stream insect photos by Troutnut from the West Branch of the Delaware River in New York

A thick mating swarm of Tricorythodes mayfly spinners hovers the West Branch of the Delaware near Hale Eddy one early fall morning.  View the picture full-size and you'll be able to make out the wings and tails on most of those little white dots.

This was one of many such clouds visible all up and down the river.  The mayflies were impressive, but the trout did not hold up their end of the bargain -- there was not a rise in sight. From the West Branch of the Delaware River in New York.

Closeup insects by Troutnut from Fall Creek in New York

Argia Damselfly NymphArgia  Damselfly Nymph View 3 PicturesMy friend Willy captured this early instar (Instar: Many invertebrates molt through dozens of progressively larger and better-developed stages as they grow. Each of these stages is known as an instar. Hard-bodied nymphs typically molt through more instars than soft-bodied larvae.) damselfly nymph and brought it to me for identification. It is more robust and stocky at this early stage than the spindly appearance of the later instars (Instar: Many invertebrates molt through dozens of progressively larger and better-developed stages as they grow. Each of these stages is known as an instar. Hard-bodied nymphs typically molt through more instars than soft-bodied larvae.), and its appearance is less familiar.

Photos by Troutnut from the Beaverkill River in New York

This mighty trout stream was reduced to a trickle during the terrible drought this August.  It ran crystal-clear and even though I could sight-fish to the trout they were beyond my skill to catch.  I did well to briefly hook just one nice fish. From the Beaverkill River in New York.
