I got out for the afternoon on a creek that recovers quickly from high water events. While cleaning some debris from my nymph dropper, I found that it had snagged a large cream colored larvae with a dark head. It was pushing well over two inches in length.
My first thought was that maybe it was a terrestrial insect larvae that got washed into the creek, but it was fine in the water. After checking troutnut.com, it looks very similar to the crane fly larvae they have pics of.
I don't fish mop flies, but I think I'm about to start.
