Default Swarm of cicadas takes aim at U.S.

They do come out every year, to a small extent. The Brood X group is know
for the massive hatch and covering roads and windshields. It is also know
as one of the weirdest dry fly hatches in existence. Evidently, they are so
big that only the big fish can eat them. They plop on the water (through
poor flying skills) and buzz around.
At Penns this year, we may be at the start of this. I'm gonna have quite a
few in my fly box.
