Default Hatch photos

Having just bought a new 23 inch high definition apple cinema display (and yes I am bragging and I do highly recommend purchasing one if you have the means) I was looking over some of my favourite fishing pictures. I found this one, taken last May on the Monnow. At first I thought these were just dust on the lens of my old and much abused camera, but then when I zoomed in to full size, I realised they were E. Danica in flight.

Anyone else got some insect porn they wanna put up? I'm sure there are better photos out there.

You should check this site out. It was posted on a fishing site in BC. They're really into their underwater porn!!

Really cool pictures though.

That's quite a hatch going on there.


TM - I suspect those are probably boobius fantasticus? probably equivalent to a sz 36?
