Default Penns and Cicadas

This year is the year of the 17 year cicada brood XIV. Why do I
care? Well, it just so happens one of the core areas of brood XIV is
CENTER COUNTY PA!!! http://insects.ummz.lsa.umich.edu/fa.../BroodXIV.html

And guess what? They're starting to emerge right now so by the time
Penns rolls around, it should be cicada heaven. Big fish going after
big orange and black bugs to big for the tiddlers to gulp down. This
should be like the green drake hatch on steroids, lasting all day. No
sitting around for the evening spinner fall. So bring your cicada
patterns and be ready and forwarned.
