entomology book and hatch chart

Recommended Posts

I am looking for an easy to read and understand book on aquatic entomology using fishing terms instead of scientific terms. Any suggestions?

 

Also where can I buy hatch charts? Is there a comprehensive volume for the US?

 

Thanks for any respnces.

The Orvis Pocket Guide Series is pretty good. I have one dealing with mayflies, stoneflies, and caddis and one dealing only with caddis. Dick Probst (sic?), I believe, authored both of them. They both contain nice photos and detailed lifecyle information.

Best source for hatch charts is right under your fingertips. Do a search for the water you want info on, & there's most likely a flyshop or bulletin board that has something on record.

 

Man...a nationwide hatch chart reference book...there's a goldmine project!

I'm planning on integrating something like that into my site next summer. It's just going to be a side effect of a much larger and more interesting database. smile.gif
