I did hit them pretty hard on the "Greg Hoover" cicada on Spring Creek Friday(6/13) and Saturday but not on Penns. The people I know that tried them on Penns got some action but not a lot. On Spring, the louder they (the cicadas) got the better the fish were at taking them. If you weren't fishing the banks then you were fishing. If you were fishing the banks, then you were catching. Nice sized fish too. Penns- Friday night at Ingleby was very good. Fished just off the parking lot (lot had 6 or 7 vehicles). Started about 7. Used size 16 BWO emrgers and got some action. Then about 9 size 12 spinners and did even better. Saturday evening we fished down from Stan's Bridge for about an hour- we got a few. I did hear that there were parts of Penns that had cicadas stacked inches deep but I did not see that. |

I would think that it would be a bad sign for everything. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cicada Although they are not harmful and at times beneficial to people Many people do eat them. I would prefer a brook trout w olive oil (or a little butter) tomato, onions and a lrttle Monteral Spice baked in a camplmfire with potatoes or even eggs Fred |

Last Thursday am, smashing would not be the right word but they were effective along the banks and under the trees. Seemed to be heavier downstate. Had better luck with copper johns, stones, BWO, and slate drakes. Seems Maryland has at least one decent little wild stream too. Gee, the Smoky's a month ago, Pennsylvania and Maryland last week. Now Michigan starting tomorrow night. July might be a little sparse except for Riverman's visit but August looks like northern Idaho is in the plans. The fishing life is good for a change. |

I'm consorting with generals in Mass and trying to pull chocks. Hmm, my mother-in-law has extended her stay with us 'cause she can't visit her friends in Iowa due to the flooding. Thinkin' I need to escape pretty quick. 4th of July weekend is looking better and better. Frank Reid (I got ta get out of this place, if its the last thing I ever dooo!) |
