You can't just expect them to sit on a floating branch for weeks and wait.

Yes but insects eat different than we do dont they. I bet rain and pockets of still fresh water provided them enough as they did not need much. I also agree many would be eaten and be a food supply for others. What makes you think their was a winter during a global flood? and if so, it was not everywhere. The floating mass of trees/derbies etc is a bit more than a stick.
