Golden Stonefly:
Species of the Perlidae family are called Golden Stoneflies. There are
numerous genera and species of these large stoneflies. As I have said in my
other articles on stoneflies, the good part about stoneflies is the fact that most
all of the different species behave very similarly. There is little difference in the
appearance or behavior of the various species of the Golden Stoneflies.
The nymphs and adults of these stoneflies are from one to two inches long.
They live for two or three years depending on the species, habitat and other
factors. They got their name from the golden brown color of the adult.
These stoneflies exist throughout the United States. Even when they are mixed
in with the huge Salmonflies with both hatching at the same time, trout will take
the smaller Golden Stoneflies in some cases even more readily than the
Salmonflies.
In the upcoming articles, we will cover the tactics and techniques used to imitate
the nymphs and the egg laying activity of the adult female.
