Course

Beginning Entomology for Fly Anglers

with Eric Frohmberg

$25

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 the 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.
