Beginning Entomology for Fly Anglers

Description

In this class, students will learn how to recognize the differences between mayflies, caddisflies

and stoneflies for both adults and nymphs. We will discuss how their behavior of these insects

relate to common fly patterns, such as dries, emergers, wet flies and nymphs. We will look at

both preserved and live specimens to think about how structure and movement influences fly

choice. While not a prerequisite for Mayflies for Fly Anglers, Stoneflies for Fly Anglers, and

Caddisflies for Fly Anglers, this course will cover information that will be used in the other

classes. Instructor: Eric Frohmberg
