Posts: 2	I'm new to this forum and glad I found it. I'm 56 and been fly fishing and tying over 15 years. I live in East Tennessee so I have access to some fine tail waters and mountain streams. Look forward to sharing ideas. Sure Knots, Monktrout

Site Editor Royse City, TX Posts: 1350	Hi there, Fernando. Your English seems fine to me. Do you fly fish? If so, what kind of fish do you pursue? I assume you are asking about the aquatic insects in your local waters. I only have information for mayflies in Puebla, which are: Baetidae Baetis magnus McCafferty & Waltz, 1986 Baetidae Baetodes inermis Cohen & Allen, 1972 Baetidae Callibaetis pictus (Eaton), 1871 Baetidae Fallceon quilleri (Dodds), 1923 Baetidae Moribaetis macaferti Waltz, 1985 Leptophlebiidae Neochoroterpes orientalis Henry, 1993

Huauchinango,Puebla(Mexico) Posts: 2	Hello Taxon, clear that I practise the fishing with fly, in fact I am in the process of learning a bit of entomology, since I want to know for that a fly is good at this moment, already get tired of copying patterns only for copying them, I am grateful to you for all the information that you have and beg them to have theirs patience. And on your question: something that exists for these courses they are trouts, are my favorite. Thank you and good fishing.

Site Editor Royse City, TX Posts: 1350	Fernando- Trout is my favorite as well. You should be able to learn a lot about aquatic insects right here on Jason's site. Apart from all his wonderful photos, this site also has the best, most active, and most supportive aquatic insect forum on the internet. You're welcome, and good fishing to you too.

Michigan, USA Posts: 4	Greetings All! I have been out of flying fishing for awhile, and as I was driving to home about 2 miles away there is the lovely river that I drive over. Come to find out my landlord's home is along the the river and she owns a 1500ft stretch along it. To make a long story short, I ask for permission to fish it, which she says is ok, then I find out the local DNR office stocks it every spring with browns! I will be the only person with access to the river for about a mile and can't wait to get my feet wet! On a another note, has anyone fished/or is fishing any streams/rivers in Ireland? Within the next 6 to 9 months my job might be taking me their, so any info you troutnuts might have would be greatly appreciated. Awsome sight! A reborn fly fisherman, Pappy

Site Editor "Bear Swamp," PA Posts: 1681	Welcome back, Pappy! If you flip back through this thread you'll find some kids from Ireland, but their communication quickly degenerated into coded slang and excessive punctuation. Wish I could help, but my roots in Erin are pretty distant. Best, Gonzo

Central MA Posts: 5	New reader, new poster. Fly fisherman and tyer since 1948 when I was 13. My 9th grade science teacher who was from PA and new to the area traded me some tying lessons for some guiding on local trout streams in the finger lakes area of NY. Used to be what I believe was a huge hexagenia hatch on Owasco lake and the ciscos and occasional rainbow would go nuts for them in June. So the first flies I tied were huge bushy monstocities that they loved. Not unusual to take 20 to 40 fish a night. Like most things, the fish and the hexes are long gone. Love the Deleware drainage and miss the Oatka, a little stream south of Rochester, NY and the prolific sulphur spinner falls that used to be on it. By the way, a great site. Very informative and knowledgeable contributors.

Site Editor "Bear Swamp," PA Posts: 1681	Georges, Your comments recalled fond memories of fishing the Brown Drake and Hex hatches on Skaneateles Lake for big rainbows and the occasional landlock (not to mention smallmouth bass and jumbo yellow perch). Although I haven't fished it for a few years, the Brown Drakes should be starting to hatch just about now. Best, Gonzo

Central MA Posts: 5	Gonzo, My fondest early fishing memories were those of being 5 to 10 years of age, having my father pick me up at home after he got off work at 11:00 PM and heading for Mandana, on Skaneatlas with worms, minnow bucket, 4 casting rods and coleman lantern for a night of shore fishing. I'll forever picture him in the morning as we were preparing to leave, reeling in all lines save one, then standing with the last rod in his hand for many minutes waiting for, hoping for, that last strike. He did that with all 4 of his sons. He was the best......
