The Kuparuk is known and written up in the guides as a good grayling fishery, but this is the only one I caught when I fished half a mile up from the road. Grayling can be fairly migratory, and perhaps they were already elsewhere preparing for winter when I fished. From the Kuparuk River in Alaska.

This is Troutnut.com's first picture of a springtail, a type of six-legged, non-insect arthropod. It's riding on the surface film under the mayfly's left tail. From the Kuparuk River in Alaska.

The second picture in the series with Slope Mtn and the Pipeline in the background is actually Oksrukuyik Creek, not the Kuparuk River.
