I have started to take close ups of any trout food I see when out fishing the Don and thought the pics may be useful either for identification purposes and tying reference.  When we get a few together the pictures and details could be used to create a sort of illustrated fly calender an placed on the main site.  I have a few pics to start off, please add as many Don bugs / flies as you can all manage, even if you are not sure what they are please give a brief location and time of day / date when seen, this info can then be transferred to a sticky thread for reference.

What's up with the photos Ben?

Looks like you're maybe forgetting to resize them??? ...... Send me copies attached to an email and I'll try to work out what's happening if you like

Hi Mike,

Think my photo editor was saving the pics as a lower quality as I was saving them in a format to be uploaded to a forum.
