Mayflies are the preferred food for many trout populations. Mayflies are very vulnerable during their emergence on the water. Some even have a hard time with the transition and become crippled. Trout love this stage of a hatch. While technically only baetis and callibaetis (mayflies and blue wing olives/blue duns) have an aquatic emergence stage, some caddis, stoneflies and midges can become crippled and become easy prey.
