mic Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Does anyone know of a identification book for bugs and crustations for Ozark creeks. I would like it to use as a learning tool for my 10 year old daughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Spencer Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 They have a good free crayfish pamphlet, and I think a mussel one, but aquatic insects I have not seen.

jdmidwest Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Chuck Tryon's Trout book had information on insects and hatches. I think there are drawings also. I think someone else did one, but can't remember who. Probably MDC website would be a good place for online info.

Trout Commander Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Does anyone know of a identification book for bugs and crustations for Ozark creeks. I would like it to use as a learning tool for my 10 year old daughter. I need to pick one up too. For uhhhhh, my son. Yeah, for him. I have spent most of my money on fly fishing and beer. The rest I just wasted. The latest Trout Commander blog post: Niangua River Six Pack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack Hoyt Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Check out Dave Whitlock's "Guide to Aquatic Trout Food" or "Trout and Their Foods". Zack Hoyt OAF Contributor Flies, Lies, and Other Diversions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exiledguide Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 My retired librarian bride said to call your library and the reference librarian should be able to find what you want and if your local library can't help call St. Louis city or county library. That was her job for a number of years she actualy helped high school kids get financial aid or scholarships for college when the school conselers weren't able to.

Gavin Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Whitlock's guide to aquatic trout foods is pretty good starter material and troutnut.com is a free online resource. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midwest troutbum Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Librarian or library is an excellent idea.... Also try writing the Department of Entymology (study of insects) at any 4 year university...The professors or departments usually have small paperback publications that are particular to the region.
