Reply With QuoteSince I posted this, on several forums, several people suggested it might be a Stone Fly. I was quite dubious about this, as the nearest natural water is several miles from me, AND I've never seen a stone fly this large. However, after some exhaustive searching, I found it...lol.
Pteronarcys californica, aka, The Giant Stone Fly or Salmon Fly. Here's a link to a pic that looks identical to mine. File:Pteronarcys2C.JPG - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

What am I?
So, I reached for my laptop, which was right next to my head, and found this guy. I took a couple quick pictures, and then took it outside for more pictures. It's approximately 2" long. Any clue what it is?

That must be a nasty rumor, made up by residents of Lake Ceour D' Alene.
