They are one really neat mosquito eating insect.

As for flytying...

Where is Alcringa these days? I hope he moved into his new place and has a few pictures to post.

Had a little turquoise colored dragon fly on the fly rod a few years back. One evening at the lake I caught practically a fish per cast with that fly until it was mangled so bad you couldn't tell what it was! Trout absolutely love dragon flies!
