THIS question asks for a name beginning with letter Y, besides which - fly fishing not only uses the word fly (already in the question and a word in a clue is not usually repeated in the answer) but what's it got to do with teaching insects?

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi was also responsible for introducing yogic flying (which brought the Natural Law Party so much ridicule a few years ago). So Yogi seems a better answer to me.

But it's OP who has to decide.

Chuck Yeager (the first man to break the sound barrier) is someone else who flew but can't see any connection with teaching insects.
