As Dave Hughes said in Handbook of Hatches, “Everything you need to know about an insect in order to match it, and to fish its imitation with the proper presentation, you can learn by holding the insect in your hand and observing it closely”
Look for hatching insects in the air, on riparian vegetation (e.g. stoneflies), or on the water surface. Try to identify them or at least determine their approximate size and color when selecting flies.
