Greg Hoover (PSU entomologist) has an article on Cicadas in the Spring
2008 issue of Fly Tyer magazine.
It contains a fly pattern.

Since you Penns Clavers seem interested, I phoned him today. He said the
time you will be here is a bit early for Cicadas, but a few might be out.

Did he say when? I'm booked for early July down at the "Cherry Run" Cabin.

According to the cicada emergence calculator:
http://www.cicadamania.com/cicadas/2...gence-formula/
Using a temp of 11.888 celcius as the mean for April in Coburn, the
cicadas should emerge on 15 May, i.e. tomorrow (about an 80% prob).

Based upon my only experience with this brood in 1991, the cicada
emergence will overlap the spinnerfall of the Green Drake.

And the green drake duns come out with the white peony blooms. Any
one seen any?
