I am new to fly-fishing for trout species and am looking for help with one particular subject.
Is there a book out in print that identifies particular insects to their respective imitations.

Anyone with information that could be helpful please respond.I have no problem identifying a particular bug in the water but when I go to my box or the local shop I am lost.

Yes there is a book from my friend Rick Passek. It's called The Freshman Flyfisher's Insect Guide. You can order it right from Rick's site. . Or you can get it at Fish Tales in Calgary.

One other way to get a copy is that I have 2 of Rick's books, The Freshman Flyfisher, and the Freshman Flyfisher's Insect Guide that Rick gave me a few weeks ago. I am going to be running a contest here and someone can win a set of Rick's books.
