Male Siphloplecton basale (Pseudo-Gray Drake) Mayfly SpinnerMale Siphloplecton basale (Pseudo-Gray Drake) Mayfly Spinner View 6 PicturesI went to great comical lengths to swipe this spinner from the air with a little aquarium net I carry with me while I'm fishing. Siphloplecton basale spinners fly fast and high over the riffles, and there are never very many of them, so they're difficult to catch.
