Western Fishermen love the Salmonfly, and for good reason. The nymphs, or immature flies, are actually quite large. In fact, they can sometimes be the largest organism in the water, besides fish of course. This makes them perfect bait for trout anglers, and every spring when there’s a hatch, fishermen and fish celebrate at the same time. The scientific name of the salmonfly is Pteronarcys Californica and nymphs can grow to as big as 50 mm before molting and becoming an adult fly. They live in the river where the current is moderate to fast and where they can latch on to boulders. However, as they grow, they can lose their grip in the current to become a tasty snack for the waiting trout or to be scooped up by fishermen for bait.
