thats the whole point.. you learned something.. and thats what its all about.. entomology is a mystery to me as well..
as for setting the hook.. always keep an eye on the line.. you never know when a fish is gonna want a taste of your fly.. I was tossing a renegade near a reed bed a few weekends ago and giving the line a little tug to make it drift toward me.. it surprised me when it I saw my line reverse direction and head toward the reeds.. I tightened my line and lifted the rod and ended up with a nice size bluegill on the hook.. :-)
