In this episode we'll talk about strategies for identifying the critters you find while you are out.   While focusing on insects, the strategies are the same no matter what you are looking at.   I mention several websites that are useful in the podcast - which are: www,bugguide.net; www.flyfishingentomology.com,  and www.troutnut.com.  You can find these links and other useful links on the Angler's Entomology Podcast Website  where there is a blog discussing this episode.  Also, here is the link to the Western Maine Fly Fishing Expo that I mentioned.   I hope you enjoy the episode.
