Episode 1: Introduction, Basics and Metamorphosis

Welcome to the Angler’s Entomology Podcast.  In our first episode, I’ll give  you a very brief bit of info about who I am and why I’m doing this podcast. I wanted to take what I knew (entomology) and provide enough background, trivia and history to make time on the water more rich.  In other words, I hope through this podcast, that when you see a critter while fishing you will have a sense of what it is and how it fits in to our wonderful, beautiful world.  I also give some background information on what makes an insect an insect, and metamorphosis – that miraculous change where insects morph from one stage into another. Besides being amazing, however, understanding metamorphosis is key to fishing imitations more effectively.
