Have you ever seen a fish eat one of those ? I never have.
The green lacewing is a terrestrial insect that isn't likely
to end up in the water. Terrestrial insects that are likely
to end up in the water, and on the menu, are beetles, ants,
crickets and hoppers.


Here is a link for information about some forgotten terrestrials.

I've never noticed an inchworm in the water, but I'm just getting to the
stage of curiosity that I'm considering getting a seine and small kit to
capture bugs in the stream flow. It has been a long time since high school
biology, but I'd try to do the easy identifications with a field guide.
