Only you could get a word associated with fishing into an alphabet game on insects
Again from a Nature Channel documentary (good job Mrs NES likes such things) - it's either:
Owl Moth or Owl-faced Moth, anyway it's an "O".

Yellow Jacket or it could be Yellowjacket. It’s the larvae of some winged insect but I can’t remember which one. They eat the roots of grass and ruin sports fields, golf courses etc.

Boscombe. If I’ve spelt it correctly and I think it’s Devon but it could be ZummerZet. Should know I’ve been there
