toolman Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Female adult Stoneflys, are often refered to as a Skid Bitch. It is a reference to the way that females of some species, will skid across the surface of the water, sometimes on egg laying runs, ovidepositing their egg clusters. Bitch refers to gender. One of my favorites...Barretts Golden Stone w/barred legs. http://www.idylwilde.com/onefly-new.php?fl...c=Berrett!s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hydropsyche Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 It doesn't look much like a fluttering stonefly but I can see it leaving a nice V wake in its path. Not too different then a Chernobyle Ant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
